Tiramisu

I just had a second interview with a potential employer. It was a pretty long one and I think it went quite well. I don't want to say anything too specific as the application is still in process. There are things to consider but I am very hopeful that this would be a good company for me.

Valentines is coming up pretty soon. It works a bit differently in Japan (and Korea) than elsewhere. Instead of the guy treating his girl, it's the other way around. So Kuriko has to give me chocolate or take me out for dinner or something. (I don't know if she's really going to do it or not but I am hopeful.) Despite the beneficiary of Valentines Day being the male, the holiday itself is definitely marketed towards the women. Much of the city is that cute pinkish-red colour and heart-shaped pastries abound.

Last time I was here I became something of a foodie. It's hard not to because food is one of the very few things that actually has better price-for-value than Vancouver. Kuri and I did Italian last weekend for a pretty good price. Man, that was good tiramisu...

Hopefully next post I'll have some exciting news.
