short post

Things have been busy, and I got some pics I'll post later, but life in Japan has been fairly mundane, despite the busy-ness.

I came home a couple of days ago and found two packages - one was my prize for winning the bookmark contest (two photobooks of Spain, certificate, and letter). The other had me more stoked - some CDs and DVDs, including a copy of "Lost in Translation" (Thanks Ryan, u rock!)

I'll post a more full review of LIT later, but all I can say is that after watching it, Sophia Coppola has pretty much faithfully recreated both the feeling of being alone and the feeling of being a foreigner coming to Japan for the first time... yep.

On a side note, Suntory Whiskey is a real "generic" brand of whiskey here in Japan, but what it lacks in quality, it makes up for in quantity... and low price. heh heh.
