Tonight me and Becki went for sushi. They had pastrami sushi, which was a first for me. I didn`t go to nihongo-salon this morning as I was up until late copying my music onto my computer.

So it seems that lately I`m becoming somewhat of an insomniac, it`s now 5am. I don`t really like staying up late but I tend to drink coffee in the evening and lately I`ve been spending all my spare time downloading my cd collection onto my new ipod via my computer, it`s taking ages!

i was watching a show on the food network the other day and i thought of you. this guy (chef andrew) was traveling around asia and eating some of the weirdest things he could find. i think a few of the japanese ones were birds nest soup, a meal that was several courses and each had different parts of the same frog, and the same thing done with a turtle. it was insane!! have you ever seen any of this stuff? whats the weirdest thing youve been served over there?
