Ice Cream With Sprinkles
There is something so special about an ice cream cone with sprinkles on it. It's simple yet so delicious. It's reminiscent of childhood but a timeless dessert to enjoy throughout life. I had this ice cream in the Shotengai in Takamatsu. I sat down and ate my ice cream. I watched as people passed by and enjoyed the occasional breeze that would pass through. It was a simple moment but one that brought me great happiness. It's the little things, right?

Who Let the Dogs Out?
Hello everyone!
Today I'm going to talk to you about Pokemon GO because, as many of you have figured out by now, I love Pokemon! Over this past summer, Pokemon GO has had some major updates and events. This began with the new raid battle feature. While I'm not the biggest fan of them due to the requirements of coordinating with other players while a lack of lobby-type features exist, it was an interesting addition to the game and allowed for the release of legendary Pokemon. Last month, the Legendary Birds were released, and much to my dismay, I did not catch a single one due to a variety of reasons, though the extreme temperatures and humidity during the last month are the main cause of such loss. However, two days ago, Niantic released three new legendary Pokemon into the wild: the Legendary Dogs; they are set to roam around various regions for the next three months, and I'm proud to say I've already caught the one currently exclusive to Asia: Suicune!
If any of you are PoGo players, I really encourage you to get out there and catch those dogs while you have the chance! I'm going to catch as many as I can! With the weather finally cooling down, I can go outside and enjoy walking around to play again. I hope to see some of you on the hunt!

I miss cactuses
It's something I thought would never come to my mind, but it's true. The bonsai here are so beautiful, but the look of those prickly sharp green trees are something that remind me of home.
I said in my first post that I lived in a pretty dry place. There are parts of California that snow, but in the the center and south it is dry enough for the mighty cactus to thrive!
My love for bonsai is growing as I live here. Kokubunji is so beautiful for all of them. It's even on the manhole covers :O

I can love both, though! I don't think I'll ever trade one for the other ;V
