Sakura trees are in full bloom!
It's my first time in Japan, and that means it's my first sakura season! I'm excited to experience hanami and sakura festivals for the first time. There are so many sakura trees in this area, there even several directly behind my apartment building. My window overlooks them so I have a really beautiful view right now. Between the sakura on the street and all of the turtles in the river, it's my favorite place to just wander around outside and take in this beautiful season.

Electronic problems continue
Wow! I'm having a pretty bad run of bad luck lately.
My computer was breaking, so I spent a lot of money on a new one. I thought it couldn't get any worse until I lost my phone charger on a long train. That was annoying, and it was pretty annoying when I broke a charger too.
But 2 days after buying a new computer, my cell phone broke. It won't turn on for more than 30 seconds before it restarts again. It's terrible! When I tried troubleshooting to fix the phone myself, I accidentally erased EVERYTHING! All of my new photos were gone. It was pretty upsetting.
The problem is probably the battery, but the phone model that I bought is impossible to open without breaking it. It's not meant to be opened. It's a used phone, so I don't have any way to have it looked at. My only option is to save my money and be phone-less or buy a new used phone soon.
I think it will be soon! I really need my phone for maps and directions, reading Japanese, and listening to music on the train. Wish me luck that I can find a good replacement.

Yeti in my spaghetti
I was looking around to see what the current fun toys and games are, when I came across a game titled “ Yeti in my spaghetti”. What is a yeti, you ask? Well, it is a monster based on folklore, looking a bit like an ape, and taller than the average human. It is generally thought to be white, and living in cold snowy regions of the world.
Anyways, this monster apparently shows up in a bowl of spaghetti. Everyone takes a turn to pull out one noodle at a time, until finally the yeti falls in!
It’s a cute game, though I don’t know how fun it will actually be. I assume it’s for the really young kids who would enjoy seeing a yeti fall into the bowl.
I guess I shouldn’t knock it until I try it!
