I'll have to apologize about my non-existing blogging the last couple of months. I'm having a great time in Japan with school and everything and had a great summer vacation with a trip to Kyoto. Haven't really felt much like writing anything, and when I do have felt like writing something, there's always 5 other interesting options to consider.
Thinking I should try writing shorter text and maybe I'll bother updating more often..
Looking at other blogs, at least in Sweden, the way to become popular is to write as stupid as possible and throw dirt on everyone else, especially famous people. Ahm well, I'm not really into that stuff, I will just try to wake up this blog again in my own way. Hope anyone bothers reading it.
Oh and just something I've been thinking about the last month or so..
The small small bugs that appear in the cabbage when it's getting old, can anyone tell me where they come from?
I keep the cabbage in plastic and not outside or anything, so it's not so likely the small bugs come from outside, so the bugs are in the cabbage when you buy it, right?
However, when the cabbage is still fresh, it's impossible to see any trace of eggs or small bugs, meaning they're probably too tiny to see. Then the next question is; do they disappear when you wash the cabbage with water a bit? If they're really tiny eggs and possibly inside the cabbage itself, probably they don't wash away that easily I guess. So my theory that you're eating these really tiny eggs everytime you eat cabbage, makes sense, right?
Doesn't really bother me, I'm not sensitive and can't see it anyway, but would be nice if someone could answer where these tiny little cabbage bugs come from. If anyone still checks out this blog that is.
Oh, and I'm happy to receive any requests on topics to write about from anyone who has interest in Japan or life over here in anyway. It'll give me some motivation to write something.

Sorry I have not been writing on your blogg for a long time, Tomas! I find your stories from Japan very interesting. You and I talked on the phone about the pragmatic way japanese people seem to look upon religion. There seem to be a nice culture of picking up what seem to be useful from different directions; budhism, shinto, christianity...
The bugs in the cabbage is a sort of insects I never seen or heard about from any other place. On the other hand I haven't been keeping cabbage for a longer time abroad... so, sorry I can't help you. They seem to be quite harmless, maybe they are even healthy? I think you should really try to get facts about them. They could be exported as the next health-product here!
Hmm so no bugs in the cabbage in Sweden? Actually, when you mention it, I can't recall seeing them in the cabbage in Sweden..
Things tend to grow well here in Japan with the humidity you know, so maybe that's the reason. I'm still curious about these bugs though. Maybe they're not allowed to use as strong pesticides over here.
Hello, Brandt~!!
Looks like you're really bisy person, who rarely check his blog^_^
But, I hope you'll answer me somehow. Because we have the same interests about Japan, Japanese and the same studies city Sapporo, at last!
Oh, sorry, it seems I forgot to introduce myself. Gomen ne>_<
I'm Anastasiya from Russia (Novosibirsk city). I'm a student of Novosibirsk State University,faculty of the humanities, chair of Oriental Studies. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
This year from April to July I had a training in Hokkai Gakuen Daigaku, and now I'm studing Japanese, English,Chinese, writting my diploma and after defence I would like to learn in Japan again. So, I started to look and compare Nihongo Gakuin's and that's how I found you(=^_^=)I want to ask about living. Doesn't your Gakuin has a dormitory? If it does, why you prefer to live in the apartment? What's the diffrience?
I'm glad you answer me and we could have a pleasant chat, even in Japanese(^_-)
Deha, go-henzi wo matte imasu.
