Rocking in Hakata

これはこのポストにコメントとして投稿しようと思っていたが、長過ぎて出来なかった。で、チップの話をある英会話で一回やったことを思い出して、何か面白い記事になるかなぁと思った。長い間に日本語で書いていないから、ちょっと分かり難いところがあるはずだ。さて、我慢して続けようか。

This was originally meant to be a comment for this post, but it became too long, so I couldn’t post it. Plus, I remembered attempting to talk about tips at an Eikaiwa (adult English class) once, and thought it might turn into an interesting article. I’ve not written in Japanese for a long time, so there are likely a bunch of places that are difficult to understand. Anyhoo, let’s buckle down and dive right in.

I’ll be in the Kansai region a few more times this month, too – including this weekend, but here are a couple of random photos of my last weekend in Kyoto and Osaka. Fun.

Random, I know. It’s just what I could process before the took my computer away last night at 7 o’clock or so… Sigh. Anyway, like I said, I’ll be back in Osaka this weekend to catch the Cirque du Soleil show called Dralion. I’m stoked. Never seen them live before, but I’ve seen every show via the Bravo Channel, I think.
