April is still strawberry season in Japan. Do you plan to visit a strawberry farm/greenhouse while you're there? Unless I'm mistaken, strawberry houses charge a fee that's equivalent to about $10-$15, then let you eat as much as you want while you're there!
I stumbled onto this yesterday: <a href="http://www.rurubu.com/season/winter/ichigo/index.asp" target="_blank">http://www.rurubu.com/season/winter/ichigo/index.asp</a>. I think it's a directory of strawberry farms. I want to work at one.![]()

Shibuya. Rather him than me, I don't think I could hack living in Tokyo, but going for a couple of weeks will be pretty joyful.Originally Posted by Shlup
I don't know exactly where his house is, just that Shibuya is the closest notable place to him.Should be a fun trip anyway. This big ass yakuza looking dude we know called Satoshi is apparently insisting we go out and get messy in Roppongi with him which should be suave.
- Schooling/Career: I am currently a student, working on both my Fire Protection Engineering and Mechanical Engineering degrees. I expect to complete my courses at the end of Spring 2012 (8 semesters, 150 credits). I currently have a job, which is as a mixed martial arts instructor for both children between the ages of 3 and 11, as well as an instructor for several adult (> 14 years) classes. I also make some extra money on a side helping my friend develop his distributorship business.
- Love life: Non-existent. I would like to have a girlfriend, but it would seem that making money is more interesting. I'd prefer not to drain myself of money: I already don't eat as it is.
- Hobbies: Does EoFF count? When I'm not studying, I solve math problems for other people in my spare time and teach them how to do it. Aside from my bid to become the ASME president at my university's chapter, there's not much else to report. I'm pretty much going to be responsible for feeding a bunch of hungry engineers.
- Gaming: None. I haven't touched a console since Re:CoM. I play Starcraft, Diablo II, Age of Empires I and II, once in a while. If I have time. Which is never.
- Etc: Currently staying up extra late so I can write my goddamn resume so I can get an internship somewhere, maybe. My favorite weapon to kill ants with is the handy-dandy vacuum, combined with some ant aerosol spray.
Schooling: I'm currently a sophomore at a fairly small research university double majoring in Physics and Mathematics. I enjoy it but it is extremely taxing at times. The worst is when finals week rolls around and I feel like my brain is literally about to turn to mush from all the mathematics being taken in.
Love life: Pretty nonexistent atm unfortunately, although I'm not really actively pursuing anything so it's nobody's fault but my own.
Hobbies: Reading, tutoring math, gaming, volleyball, tennis. There's not much to do around here when the weather gets like this.
Gaming: I've been almost exclusively playing Smash Bros. Brawl and Halo for the past month or so. I haven't found anyone really on my skill level in Brawl in a long long time, so I like to brag about it like it is some sort of tangible and credible skill.
Etc: I love being in a fraternity despite all the stereotypes associated with that, some of them true, a large amount of them false
he is determined, moarlike
do you wear/display your ASME pin anywhere? Mine's on my backpack on the gai pried ribbon
I got an e-mail back from one of the companies I applied for internships toTwo e-mails (out of like 20 positions ;o'''''') I'm pretty damn excited. Too bad they're both in Connecticutt
