it's narin!: August 2011
http://itsnarins.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 18, 2011. But, in theory. This whole blogging deficiency is about to change. Despite deciding to come back to Melbourne this time last year after tiring of the feeling of starting again that came every year teaching English in Japan, I'm packing my life up and heading there yet again. Am I crazy? While I can't guarantee more adventures that will equal discovering Jesus. Or even days at work that are as. And of course, the resumption of my favourite pastime.

it's narin!: fuk!
http://itsnarins.blogspot.com/2009/08/fuk.html
Wednesday, August 05, 2009. Aaah, Fukuoka. When I first looked up information about what to do in Fukuoka, other than it's "city in a city" shopping centre, not that many sights came up that made me that interested in visiting the city. The only thing came that kept coming up was that they were famous for food. Would that really be enough to entertain me for two whole days? Oh, how little I know me. Dammit, I was hoping to go to Fukuoka just to say I've now visited every one of the main islands of Japan,...

it's narin!: trusting my instincts
http://itsnarins.blogspot.com/2010/01/trusting-my-instincts.html
Tuesday, January 26, 2010. Sure, I've technically been studying Japanese for like 12 years now (though high school doesn't really count, so shave off 5 years), but even still, I tend to underestimate how much I know. So even though I can take a shot and try to guess the actual meaning of what people said, I usually ask people to explain what they meant so I can make sure I understand it. In my mind, I was trying to fit the pieces together. 性= sex, gender. Was he saying he was asexual? Or a lack of sex?

it's narin!: buddhist disneyland
http://itsnarins.blogspot.com/2011/12/buddhist-disneyland.html
Friday, December 09, 2011. A friend told me about 'Buddhist Disneyland' a while back, but I didn't really pay much attention then. I just figured Buddhism and Disneyland were mutually exclusive, so anything that used both words in the same sentence just didn't seem. right. Plus, There were still some huge tourist places that I still had yet to visit, so the prospect of wandering around a Buddhist cemetery over tourist attractions, food. Didn't really sound that appealing. I don't know what it is about th...

it's narin!: pilgrimage to shingo
http://itsnarins.blogspot.com/2010/08/pilgrimage-to-shingo.html
Thursday, August 05, 2010. I'm not really a religious person, but when people ask me what I want to see before I leave Japan, I always answer with the same thing: Jesus. Not in the metaphorical sense, or in the spiritual sense of finding Jesus inside of myself or anything. I'm talking about Jesus' final resting place, which as everyone knows, is here in Japan. What's that you say? Location: Aomori Prefecture, Japan. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Rice paddies and old ladies.

it's narin!: an ikea lover's dream
http://itsnarins.blogspot.com/2011/09/ikea-lovers-dream.html
Wednesday, September 07, 2011. An ikea lover's dream. This would be a post showing you pictures of everything in my place, but seeing the lack of anything. I also just heard that one of Ikea's few Japanese stores is in Osaka, so I am thinking fulfilling my dream of designing a room straight out of an Ikea catalogue. Yep, I know - who said you can't dream big? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. An ikea lovers dream. Talk Like a Pirate Day. White Darker Than White.

it's narin!: not in kansas anymore
http://itsnarins.blogspot.com/2011/10/not-in-kansas-anymore.html
Wednesday, November 09, 2011. Not in kansas anymore. You know that awkward, first day at a newschool feeling? In theory, you know what you’re in for: Being with a new group of students and teachers, a new schedule, and new environment. It’s all the same, but slightly different than before, so even though you’ve done this whole ‘school’ thing before, you still don’t quite know what to expect. Check Handful of games and lesson ideas that incorporate some form of grammar point? For a whole lesson? Everythin...
