Snow in Japan

 It snowed. It was really quick. It snowed that night and it was gone the next evening. I saw someone fall (badly) though because of it. She got help, but that goes to show you that snow is dangerous, doesn't it? I was really worried, because I come home late, and I didn't want it to freeze over, but it was really all gone. I heard that for Tokyo, that was a lot of snow.  Here's a small video of the snowfall and my ramblings:

 

Well, my most favorite food now is tempura. Tempura japanese sweet potato actually. We went to a tempura place and studied the menu. I found out what I like it called "imo." They also have tempura pumpkin, which isn't as horrifying as it sounds. It's actually very, very tasty.                

I also had french toast from a place called "PanDoll." It was a big hunk of bread toasted (fried?) and covered in sugar. It tasted like a big square piece of funnel cake. It was really, REALLY good, also pretty cheap, only 100¥. I was quite happy with it.

Until I came to Japan, I've never seen hot(cold) chocolate sold like this. In powder form, in little fancy starbucks cups, but not like this. Of course I bought it. Cold hot chocolate isn't half bad. It's not my favorite  thing in the world, but it isn't bad. Also, why hasn't anyone told me that "coco" is actually "cocoa?"

Also, my earphones broke today. =_= I had been using them since freshmen year actually, and they blocked out EVERYTHING, so I'm very sad to see them go. I actually don't even remember what the brand was, since I got them from the school store. Headphones are something I really care about, because I hate hearing noise, and I hate hearing my neighbors who are up and ghastly hours, so I ran to the nearest store. I was sad, because I know that I wouldn't find ones as good as the ones I had (without spending a lot)...

However, I was able to replace them with Disney earphones!  Yup, that's what I spend my money on. It's important to me. They aren't as good as my old ones, but I suppose I'll just get used to mediocrity when it comes to my music. Nothing seems to "pop" anymore...but at least I have mouse ears on my head. :)

I've been having money nightmares. Everything costs something. Why can't anything be for free? Or at least last longer? =_= Oh well, what can you do?

Special thanks to my mom for letting me borrow her camera. It's very nifty. :)
