Week in review!



Been in Japan for a whole week now, had a lot of free time on my hands. Seen quite a bit, posted some of. Never an easy thing to sum up, especially when I'm trying to preserve some of the more classic moments with video. Which are not complete at this time and thus not here!

As for the blogging: Yep, I'm new to this, but do keep posted to several each day. In particular, the Gawker media sites. In some regards, I've borrowed some of their features. If it ain't broke, why try to fix it, right?

Thus, onto a great feature from Kotaku: the week in review! Always a good way to catch a breather, ponder the happenings over the past week, and enjoy a beer at the same time. The links aren't all there, but I'll fill them in.

- Arrived in Japan (wow, a week ago?)
- Moved my fiancee out of her apartment and rewarded myself to some good pork.
- Shot a short film about getting the dog a drink
- Visited some home goods and novelty stores to make a video about Japanese toys.
- Made some good progress on my game project
- Started a new collection of Engrish photos.
- Tossed the 'bee with Patrick Miller of OU fame.
- Assembled a Maxass video from an old show
- Got hit by some rain from Japan's first Typhoon of 2008
- Tried a Mc Shaka Shaka chicken mixer at McDonald's (video link coming soon)
- Went to downtown Nagoya to meet one of Reiko's friends and drank on the bus.

And more! Shot a lot of video at this point but have yet to edit a lot of it. All in good time...
