Big shopping day it was!!!
MoonFlower, her mother, and I went out for shopping as planned.
Got to newly-open outlet mall… not too far from where MF's mother lives.



"Mitsui Outlet Park Kisarazu"

Got there right after the open at 10am… not many people yet and parking space was quite open! Hahaha.



Good Godiva's white chocolate green tea. 530 yen.
I usually don't take this kind of stuff… but it turned out to be good stuff!!!
I may even try another time. Hahaha.



More and more people showed up and shopped around!
I bought three things.

One - Golf glove by Adidas. 970 yen.
Then, 2 chirts.



One in blue.



The other in pink.

Both colors are definitely my favorites. Still missing the third favorite one - the purple! Hahaha.
Good shopping day for me!
My stress is quite relieved. Do you see my point?

Long day… but I felt like was quite short. Hahaha.

Car is running as normal. Very good.

My day off didn't go as planned at all.
Hahaha. Let's laugh it away!
I was quite lazy… totally… all day long.

Woke up as usual, though.
Just slowly moved.
At least, I did the spending management report on my own. For personal spending.

At least, didn't reach the over-spending yet. Though, I should be careful.



I bought a case for iPad online… while ago.
Now I open the box delivered quite while back. Hahaha.
Totally blue.

My color?
Anyhow, the same blue as Smart Cover attached to my new iPad.
Very cool don't you think?



Just like this.



Now, old / 1st generation iPad is planned to go to MoonFlower for her use.
Hope she comes to a good understanding of how to use it.
Therefore, that iPad is totally refreshed for new use.

Hi folks! How was your weekend?
Mine was quite flat… but somewhat fun, though.
I finally came to see this movie:



Yeah, Johnny Depp movie… Another movie by Tim Burton.
Dark Shadows it was.
Well, I heard that this movie was re-make of old TV series. Is that true?

Anyhow, I love the jokes that were from time difference of 2 centuries. Hahaha.
Perfect jokes by Johnny Deep.
The story was not that well written, I thought. Though, it was fun entertainment overall.

Not that disappointing for sure. Hahaha.

And went to Central Department store for this:



Bought new Rimowa suitcase.
Sky blue - I selected. Almost chose the gold… hahaha.

I just need to make my luggage lighter than before.
I always used large suitcase for short period of time.
This time that I fly back to Japan on coming Thursday, I shall have less pain from heavy laguage!

Finally it is today!
It's not ordinary Friday for Thai people… and yet applicable to myself.
Apple's new iPad (aka 3rd Generation) gets on sale from today!

One of belated Asian nations selling iPad. Hahaha.

I, immediately after work today, went out to MBK. Famous electronic shopping mall in Bangkok.
Straight into Apple Authorized Dealer.
The answer was no. "Not received for today. In 3 days."

Yes, this is Thailand. No surprise for such incident. Minor stuff.

I won't easily give up on that… so went to next candidate.

iStudio - the Thai's biggest Apple deal in the country.
iStudio at Siam Center… not too far from MBK.
Yes, they had it.

64GIG 4G WHITE was my choice.

Actually, my coworker "requested" (translated as "forced") me to buy one more for him.
Thus, I ended up getting two at a time.
Of course, VAT refund document was completed. Don't leave Thailand without it!



Perfect replacement to current iPad (original) 64GIG 3G!
Finally.
Retina display is a big change in specification. Though, to me, the camera-equipped is another major difference.

After getting the iPad, I had to return to the team for not work but fun.
Team dinner took place nearby the project site.
So drink tonight… not opening the iPad box. Hahaha.

Today, nothing has really been accomplished. Yes, I admit that I was quite lazy.
Well, I worked on lots of personal data… particularly, this website's past blog…
This website being around over 10 years… since 1998.

Sorry for English readers… the past blog for English is now only up to sometime in 2009.
I promise that I will put all back online… in future!

While, Japanese past blog is now available back to year 2006 - the time I was at Thunderbird School of Global Management.

I am trying to put back all data online…like I said, for record.
It will take so much time to do that. It takes lots of MY patience as well. Hahaha.

Just bear with me, will ya!



Bought this last Sunday… when MoonFlower and I went to Marui department store.
Originally, wanted to buy a jacket for myself.
Turned out to be stoles. Fashion stoles.

Already worn yesterday:



How do I look? Hahaha.



Italian leather by Il Bisonte.
This is a bungle.

Since having started wearing watch on right wrist, put this bungle on left.
New fashion for me. Hahaha.

I bought this via online while being in Bangkok.

The color is natural. I should chose different color when picking another up… Probably red or green?

Today MoonFlower and I were quite excited about these...
New champagne glasses… we bought them last month.
MF wanted me until today.



Brand new!
Look at those great legs!!! Very thin but so beautiful!!!



Not champagne… but sparkling wine today.



Look at those bubbles!!! I love it!



Only disappointment in tonight's dinner… the cheese. They are okay… not bad.
Hahaha.

Seafood, salad, pork, and pasta… ate too much!

Showed up to the Thai Embassy this morning.
Yeah, my Tokyo time starts...



Ate Chinese dish for lunch. Yeah, never get tired of Chinese food!!!
Sure, Thai food is good, too.



Along with project members, came to Yasukuni Shirine for prayer.
For what? Of course, this huge project's success.

Really? Really.



Only 100 yen? For Apple's bumper (orange).
Yes, it really was. So I picked up.



Well, I really wanted to buy this green bumper, though.
Meaning, I bought two bumpers at a time.



Great supper fixed by MoonFlower who worked a bit over time today.
It was good food… liked it so much. Thank you darling.

Report about the shopping made for myself in Bangkok…
Thai silk product for me. Blue… was my choice.
It was 50% off… "MUST BUY."





How do I look?
Since yesterday's haircut, my hair is now short version. Hahaha.

MoonFlower and I went to Kameido for prayer for the 1st time in this year.



You can see new Tokyo's symbol - Tokyo Sky Tree.
The highest TV tower in the world!



Kameido Tenjin Shrine was the destination.
Prayed for health, work, and peace for family...



Fortune teller was not that bad… much better than one in 2011!!!
This is really good news!

Dessert at famous Funabashi-ya for Japanese sweet.





"Kuzu-mochi." Perfect company with Japanese tea. Loved them!

Well, the weekend is already over… one last week in Japan… am expected to be busy… will see how it all would go for me.

Didn't buy it there… but here.
Finally, Tendence has come to my collection!!!

Italian watch brand that I have been looking for having…
Part of next Bangkok readiness… you know, I wanted to have some watch with rubber band.
I thought of G-shock, originally. Then changed my mind to this brand.



Selected white one… that not many people would buy… hahaha!



How does this look?



This is HUGE face… too big for me? Will see how I would feel.
Yes, I will take this with me to Bangkok next time. Sure thing.

Surely, back and red… and even other colors were considered.
White is surely part of rare to choose… that is why.

I may wear this to work… does this sound a bit odd?
