I've never had any issues with them... even when I lived outside of Japan and would email them through the customer serivce email form with google translated requests to order.

I decided to check my weight on a whim this week and I seem to have dropped 5kg somewhere over the last month, which is sort of the opposite of what I've been trying to achieve.

I just stumbled across this -
and it was much better than I thought it would be.

I always loose weight in Japan. Pretty sure I was about 52kg before I left, and now I assume somewhere around 47kg. I'm not aiming towards it either, as a matter of fact I forry for my health since I feel very fatigued ...so I decided to go to shinsaibashi to try those famous cheesecakes at Pablo's today XD

Funny that, I had just left Pablo when I read this! I bought the Uji Matcha and Azuki smoothie though.

I went to an Onsen today for a rest after travelling around, decided to check my weight and I'm at 69kg now... when I came to Japan last year I was somewhere between 75 and 80kg, not long after I arrived I fell really ill and was hospitalised for a week and my body weight dropped to something like 65. Once I got my strength back I climbed back to 75, but for the last 5 or so months I've been working out a lot and now at 69kg I'm the strongest I've ever been and have the best physique I've ever had.

I mean Shinsaibashi -.-' sorry for the typo. I guess that's me subconsciously wishing I was there.

Ow, I just assumed it since you said you went there aswell ^^'


On another note, on my way from Nanba station to Shinsaibashi a guy passed me wearing a Madeth gray'll t-shirt.... probably first time I've seen anyone wearing a vk merch outside of a concert hall/club.

After nearly 8 years, I think my Macbook Pro is starting to reach the end of it's life... I hoped that Apple would update the non-touch bar 13" model this year but it looks like they're going to let it die and I don't want to pay a premium for a touch-bar that I will almost never use. ;_;

What's your main reason for wanting to stay with Apple products ? I used to love them and what the company used to stand for (etc..), but tbh I can't justify their cost since like... 2010 I think

I don't like what the company has become, but I like OS X and I've had this computer since the start of 2011, so I know the build quality is good (or at least, was).

My MBP is older than it. :/
Though really, on laptops I've found it doesn't even matter unless you play games. Graphics cards are like 40 times faster than the ones they had in 2011, but a top-of-the-line Thinkpad from back then will have an equivalent or faster CPU to any laptop sold today.
