Buying Electronics In Japan
I’m often asked about buying electronics (cameras, SDHC cards, etc etc) in Japan, so I’ve written this guide which details Akihabara and how to find the cheapest streets there, and covers the main electronic chains and Shinjuku west.

Creepy
I caught this guy using a long zoom lens taking photos into my apartment a few nights ago. Creepy, eh?
I went to confront him and found the building is actually a hotel - I knew about the hotel but didn’t know it was that building. I had a word with the counter staff and they said they’d give him a damn good thrashing.
Good job (for him) I wasn’t naked.
I need to move to somewhere bigger, and to somewhere where my view isn’t just other apartments. Not sure that’s feasible in Tokyo though!

The blog for Japanese girls with bad teeth…
…or cute teeth, some say - Yaeba Super Stars:
For non-Japanese readers
Thank you for coming.
Though you cannot read articles written in Japanese, however you know how I love girl with double tooth and feel it so strange.(Double tooth is ‘Yaeba’ in Japanese.)
The crooked tooth is forgiven by most of Japanese.In fact, most of Japanese feel it cute and love it.
Amazingly some of Japanese girl apply Yaeba to their own teeth.This is not for Halloween but for making them charming.
I will introduce you some major Yaeba stars.
Before coming to Japan I was told by a friend who’d lived here: “You can’t judge whether a Japanese girl is pretty or not until you’ve seen her smile. You might see a gorgeous girl working in 7-11 and then she smiles at you revealing Frankenstein’s mouth.” I thought he was exaggerating at the time.
Follow the link. See the Yaeba stars. Decide for yourself.
