Selling Up Update

My Hubby and I have finally started to sell our beloved Anime we’ve decided to keep 4 rare box sets each we can always ship them to Japan If we get to stay. I’ve been busy selling all of the general stuff we had like fishing gear and our mountain bikes.

The rest of our things can be sold last minute when we’ve saved up enough to set off for Japan everything we make from selling our things will go to our japan fund. It’s gonna take a lot of saving but we really hope to get there in the next 2 years at latest. We want to go more than ever now we’re both studying and and immersing our selves in all things japan to help with studying.

If your interested In any of our collection we’ve got from years of collecting please take a look…

Japanese Drinks

This is my entry to the July 2011 Japan Blog Matsuri. I big thank you to both Nihongoup for this months Matsuri and Japanalicious the organizers.

The Japanese have some weird and wonderful drinks theres the traditional drinks like sake and green tea then theres the new weird types of drinks like Ramune. Ramune is a drink I’ve tried and really like theres lots of different flavors like Melon and Strawberry I would recommend them to everyone.

Sake is a favorite drink for me I’ve tried it both hot and cold its usually served hot in the winter months. high-grade sake is not drunk hot as it can ruin the flavor.

Green tea is a drink I have often but I’ve never tried the Japanese variety will be sure to be drinking often when in Japan.

Boss, a Japanese canned coffee never tried it but would like to available at many vending machines.

Asahi beer, I sometimes have when I go to Wagamama they also sell Ichi ban which is another Japanese beer which I’ve tried.

Japanese Food

Just watched this very interesting episode of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations, I have a passion for food and cooking and would love to visit some of he places he went in this episode. Hopefully In the near future I will get to taste the real food of Japan. I’ve been to quite a few Japanese restaurants in the UK now but I believe the experience and tastes would be a lot better if I were in Japan. I guess I just long to be there to see new things experience the culture and try the many different dishes Japan has to other.

New Camera

Well been without a camera for a while now and was out window shopping, seen a camera that I really liked the looks of had an old fashioned look about it. I don’t know much about specs and so on, I asked hubby to have a look see if he liked it he did all the research and read reviews and had a look in store he liked it. We decided to get it and I love it It takes amazing pictures the quality is really good. I would recommend it to everyone it has the quality of an SLR yet is a lot smaller and compact perfect. We hope to take it to japan one day to take some pictures

Selling Up

sassy — Sun, 09 Jan 2011 19:16:25 +0000

Has had to make some difficult decisions this year the first one was if to leave my job my boss was a bully and it was getting unbearable so in the end I made the decision to leave. The next decision was to renew the lease on the house we rent and after looking at the finances with me not working now the decision was not to renew. So now we’ve got two months to move out and go back to live with the relative that we were living with before not really happy but don’t have much of a choice once you have your own freedom you don’t want to loose that again.

I’m now wanting to just sell up everything even my beloved anime everything must go. I’m hoping to find another job as soon as I can It’s just a case of waiting to hear back and hoping It wont take too long to get something. My goal is when we end up back there to the tiny little room I just want to save as much money as we can so we can leave but not to get another place here to just leave this country to travel around the world work in different places see new things enjoy life.

It’s going to be horrible for a while but in the end It will be worth it. It’s going to be hard selling some stuff I own sentimental things especially and one of the worst things is saying goodbye to my pets, there going to stay with a relative but I wont see them for years maybe longer. I’ve started making a list of things to sell and hopefully should get rid of most of It before we move out. I’m hoping to have sold everything by the end of this year and saved enough to start our adventure early next year. We’re not getting any younger and you only have this life so make the most of it cherish everyday get though the bad ones never forget the good ones and always remember stuff is just stuff memories last forever.
