Hey everyone! (Post #024-026?)

So, I haven't been posting lately (as you may have realized) but this is all worth it, let me tell you. It's all because I'M GOING TO JAPANNNNNNN!!! So, while I'm there, I'll be posting little clips and such of my trip! I think it'll all be worth it. However, I've never tried posting videos on Blogger before, so I may have to involve good ol' YouTube a little. My account (as you may want to see the videos) is listed under "Spencer Vogel," and I'm sure that you'll be able to access it through my Google+ page, which is to the right of the passage you're reading. Once again, arigato gozaimasu for reading and I'll see you in Tokyo! 

-Spencer

PS: arigato gozaimasu is the romaji for thanks a lot (as you may be wondering)

PPS: romaji are Japanese words written with Latin characters (as you may be wondering)

PPPS: God, that's a lot of wondering.

#021: Marimo!


Japan Fan Post #021

First off, sorry for the late post, I had plans on Sunday, part of which were to secure my trip to Japan! YAY! Anyway...

Marimo, known as Aegagropila linneai, are a type of algae found in some parts of Alaska and Japan. They are known for their soft look and cute shape. They are a protected species in Japan as well as in Iceland, where they are very hard to find. There is a marimo festival in Hokkaido where the indigenous people, the Ainu help out the species. Thanks for reading!

#019: Manga Kissa

Japan Fan Post #019

Manga means 'comic book' in Japanese and kissa means 'cafe,' so manga kissa are basically comic cafes where you rent a space and are able to read some of your favorite manga! Manga kissa are especially popular in Tokyo, where chains like Manboo and Gera-Gera pop up everywhere.
Thanks for reading!
