Shopping!
Posted by dgarcher on September 8, 2007
Went shopping today, was able to take a couple of photos of the local town, and I have one more picture of some of the uber, uber food I bought. I managed to pick up some sushi for just 580 yen, roughly £2.50. (Photos below)
I also decided to go to Makuhari, the main town. The city is so cool. Below is an edited picture of the scene you see from the bridge just before arrival. Looks good doesn’t it?

While I was there, I decided to go to Tecmo arcade, played some shooter games and some Mario Kart, was really amazing. Enjoyed it so much ^_^.
Still really enjoying it here. It was so sunny though today! Even though I slapped the cream on like a madman, I still got kissed by the sun. I do think that my face is actually a little burned, and my arms are turning a shade browner. And when I say a shade, I obviously mean like five or six. I must be getting enough Vitamin D to power a small computer. Don’t get me wrong though, it doesn’t look bad for once.
I forgot how long it had been since an update! I’ve manged to buy myself a bike (It’s SO nice, only cost ~£70, and it doesn’t look sporty or anything. The nice fact is that I can get from A to B that much quicker). So, whether I like it or not, I’m going to be getting a lot more exercise, seen as I won’t be catching the bus to anywhere locally. It’s bike only, baby! Of course, when I travel further, I can use my new travel card (Such a useful thing that too, and it has a picture of a penguin on it… strange…)
On a side note, I said I’d be bringing in some Software news here and there. Ubuntu Studio is finally out! (WOO!) When I can actually get some DVD’s, I’ll get a download of that on the go. It seems so useful, just wondering if it can use the things my PC has. For now though, I’m quite alright using the software I’m using. The photo effects above were done quickly, and extremely easily, on Paint.NET, which is actually well worth checking out. It does all the things I could ever need in a paint program. Seriously.
Ja ne~!
