    My phone The phones in Japan are seriously awesome. Even the free ones are years ahead of the ones in the USA. Unfortunately AU was out of free phones for guys. (They had plenty of pink phones…) So I had to buy a phone. I can watch TV on it, and the camera is really…

    Bleaching my hair was a painful experience, but it was worth it. I like the subtleness of the purple. I might not even have to wear a hat at work. A couple of pictures can be found on my Gallery
