Busy, busy, busy... but not with work!
Izakaya Izakaya is the Japanese word for “bar” and I would appreciate it if everybody could remember this because it’s getting to the point where I can’t remember the word “bar”. I was talking to Mum on the phone the other day and I kept saying......Read More

Bits and Pieces
Girls’ Night Out On the fourth of January, Pei, Hannah, Tomomi-san and I all went out for dinner. We went to a restaurant at the far end of the road, which resembles what a Japanese restaurant is like in Australia… except cheaper! We ate a lot. The place is famous for it’s......Read More

Christmas
Christmas Eve Work was rather quiet again because the weather was bad. It was really windy and snow was being blown every where and it was COLD! Up until now, I’ve coped with the weather quite well but this wind, phew. It was bad. Even the night before it was getting in through my......Read More
