1... The area in where I work, there are many tourists walking aroud with their Lonely Planet Japan in their hands. Anyway, I sometimes see some getting lost and trying to figure out where they are by looking at the local map that's only written in Japanese. Sometimes, I approach them and give them directions as I try to be pretty and nice. Some other times, I don't. Today, I saw one hunky stud in a sleeveless shirt getting lost. I could totally tell he was a homo from his clothes. Though I didn't do anything about him as he was with an awfully good looking hunk. I hate them.. I secretly wanted to lick his biceps though... sadly I came back to the reality and back to the neardy office..... 
2...Some have commented they are envious of me because I get to travel on business. Before you say that again, please look at the photo. 87 receipts. That's the pile I had to take care of from the biz trip in the States. It takes about a half day to complete the expense report. You have to show which receipt is used for what purpose. No, it's not that fantabulous.
3...I didn't know yesterday's post was the 500th entry on this blog.
4...The English phrase, "Guess What" doesn't really make sense to me. Did s/he want me to guess what s/he was gonna talk about? I am not their mind reader....huh.. interesting phrase. To be honest, that phrase annoys me sometimes. BTW, Guess what!? I just came back from the bathroom!! Okay, I guess this phrase can be good when you want to make something non-exciting sound better. :-)
You have a fantabulous Tuesday!!
Guess what? I'm the first to comment!!!
Lol.... you must be the exception to the Japanese rule. Japanese people always seem so unfriendly and shy to foreigners. No one seemed very interested in me in the bathhouse in Tokyo.. wish someone would come up to me and kiss my biceps!!
Happy 500th post, S-chama (or 501st if you count this one)! I suppose "Guess what?" is kind of like the Japanese, "Chotto ii?" I never knew whether the stuff coming afterwards was going to be good or bad! But yeah..."Guess what?" is really annoying, especially when the person is not satisfied with "What?" as a reply and says, "No, GUESS!" Usually my death stare is sufficient to let them know that I don't have time for guessing games!
But guess what? I found out that Shimane changed their rules to allow 4th and 5th year teachers to stay at their junior high schools instead of teaching at elementary school...*after* I leave.--GEE, THANKS A LOT (; _ ;) Bastards!!!!!
Hey you should have been friendly and brought the two hunks around. Who knows, they could be hot gay brothers.
Im commenting on what was posted before me by Paul...My bro is gay but i can never see us together along with a third guy...not even without the third guy..YUCK...oH u were tallking about HOT brothers...nv
Guess What is just one of those meaningless conversation starters, like "How are you?" or "How's it going?" They don't really want to know how you are...

1) I think that you should have helped the hunky stud! And as you were saying; "No sir, the Hello Kitty store is THAT way!", when he turned to look in that direction you could have "accidentally" licked his bicep with your tongue!!!
2) Yes, expense reports SUCK!!! (and not in the good way!)
3) Congratulations on your 500th post!! :)
4) Guess What? I think that you're fantabulous!!!! ;)
1. I have a Lonely Planet Guide as well and I don't see any Japanese hunky guys coming up to me to show directions. Maybe I should wear a muscle T shirt to show my Bicep!! I wish I was in your position to provide direction to the two hunky guys! I will just follow them as well :-)
2. Done that been there. I usually take to complete my expense claims forms on my Saturdays. How needy can this be?
3. 500th blog! Wow..... I have yet to arrive this millestone!
4. By the way! Guess what? I'm on holiday for the next 5 days.... :-)
That's clever, numbering the receipts so you could track which spending went with what day. I am jealous you can be so organized at stuff like that! I always lose my receipts!
I always reply to a "Guess what" with a "What?" and to a "You know" (probably one of the oft repeated vague phrases in the world) with a "No."
Happy 501st post, Shigeki! You could have treated yoruself with a lick to the bicep. :-)
Guess what?
I am having a horrible Tuesday.
I never thought about that phrase but I can see why it doesn't make sense. It is just one of those things people say but don't really expect a response to...very similar to "How are you?"
BTW, guess what!? I hate the guess what thing too. :-)
But........it's a rhetorical phrase that *some people* love, so we humor them and say *what*. haha
I love math and really enjoy doing the receipt thing. Weird? Everyone has their own idiosyncrasy, (maybe only some people), :-) but that's one of mine.
Eight years.....that's a long time for one relationship. Especially one that was so .............what can I say?
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY AND MANY MORE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Have a great Hump Day! :-)
Mmmm lets try this :"COME OVER HERE BOY and lick my bicep!!!"

Hi Colin,
Yay, the first comment. :-) Well, I don't think we seem always unfriendly. We can look friendly sometimes. But shy? Yeah, I take advantage of me being Japanese because I am supposed to be shy even though I am not. :-) You have a wonderful day!
Hi GaijinGirl,
Thank you veyr much. When I heard it for the first time, I thought I'd really have to guess what s/he was going to say. :-) It's very similar to "You know what?" isn't it? Though I always say "no, I DO NOT!" when someone says "you know what?" :-) I am sorry about that Shimane's change... That's so crappy of them. They should have done that when you were here, no? You have a wonderful day!
Hi Paul,
Well, I was on my coffee break so I didn't have enough time. oh well. :-( You have a wonderful day!
Hi NV,
I think I've never been interested in hot brothers stuff that you can watch in porn. I mean come on... :-) You have a wonderful day!
HI TK,
"how are you" still sometimes requires you to answer how you are, doesn't it? That's even worse. :-) You have a wonderful day!
Hi Hanuman1960,
Hello Kitty Store. :-) hahaha. I wonder if there is any "accidental" way to lick his biceps. I doubt it. :-) Thank you thank you very much. You are fantabulous, too. :-) You have a wonderful day!
Hi Ian,
So you too have awesome arms? You should totally show them off but I have a specific taste so I don't go and lick everything. :-) That's great that you are on holiday. May more holidays to come, hopefully! You have a wonderful day!
HI Cesar,
I am so sorry to hear it. I hope things will get better later this week! :-) I guess "You know what?" is another thing. English is always difficult. :-) You havve a wonderful day!
Hi Maggie,
I just don't like doing the receipt thing because our online exense report thingy is really unfriendly and the finance department goes "Everything is written on the instruction notes". Oh well. :-) But since you like calculating things, that's good considering your profession. :-) YOu have a wonderful day!
Hi NV,
Well, it has to be darm super good arm to lick if I have to travel thousands of miles for that. :-) You have a wonderful day!
I like what you guys are up also. Such intelligent work and reporting! Keep up the superb works guys I have incorporated you guys to my blogroll. I think it will improve the value of my website :)
This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like 'Mixview' that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you're listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of "neighbors" will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune "Social" is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
I really appreciate this post. Iˇ¦ve been looking everywhere for this! Thank goodness I found it on Bing. You've made my day! Thx again
I'm very happy to read this. This is the type of manual that needs to be given and not the accidental misinformation that's at the other blogs. Appreciate your sharing this greatest doc.
Thanks for sharing excellent informations. Your web site is very cool. I'm impressed by the details that you have on this website. It reveals how nicely you understand this subject. Bookmarked this web page, will come back for extra articles. You, my pal, ROCK! I found simply the info I already searched everywhere and simply could not come across. What a perfect website.
I'll gear this review to 2 types of people: current Zune owners who are considering an upgrade, and people trying to decide between a Zune and an iPod. (There are other players worth considering out there, like the Sony Walkman X, but I hope this gives you enough info to make an informed decision of the Zune vs players other than the iPod line as well.)
I've been absent for some time, but now I remember why I used to love this website. Thank you, I will try and check back more frequently. How frequently you update your web site?
