MacBook Pro 15″

Today I bring to you my most recent Get, a new computer!

Macbook Pro 15 box

It’s a 2011 MacBook Pro 15″. If you’ve ever read my blog before, you would know that I use apple computers as my main machines. I’ve been using my old MacBook Pro 15″ (from 2006!) for a while now, and it has served me well. However, it was time for an upgrade.

Azunyan & Taiyaki

みなさんこんばんは! The other day I was at Mitsuwa Marketplace, and in the market is a booth selling Taiyaki. For those who don’t know, Taiyaki 「たい焼き」 is a Japanese pastry shaped like a fish that is filled with bean paste, and it is usually seen at Japanese festivals. I bought a few while at the market and thought it would be fun to do a photoshoot of Azunyan & the Taiyaki.

Headphone Girls ; A Pictorial Book

If you’re like me, then you find 2D girls wearing headphones oddly fascinating. I’m sure many of you who like Headphone Girls (or often called Headphone Musume) have seen lovely images of girls wearing headphone around the interwebs. There is just something incredibly cool (and attractive) about girls wearing headphones. Apparently there are other people who think so as well, so much so that there has been a book containing lovely 2D girlies wearing headphones. Needless to say, I bought it ^^. So I will do a short review of the book:

Headphone Girls

Here we have the cover. Inside the book there is a poster of the cover girl and 3 other posters with girls front and back. Unfortunately I didn’t get a change to snap photos of the posters. But trust me, they are nice (I have them all hanging up in my room ^^)
