This one doesn’t look like Hiro… but I remember he kept trying to move around. The location was at the church.
He looks hilarious.
☺☺☺
Kids version of bijin tokei has been on internet for some time but I didn’t know about it at all until I saw one ad of a photo studio near my house looking for models for Kid’s Tokei. Haha, I’m not a mother who wants to make my own child to be famous or star, but the deal at the photo studio was really good (2000yen for printed photo, data, unlimited costume change etc) . The deal was that I had to send the photo taken at the studio to kid’s tokei to enter the competition, and had to write down the name of the studio as a referrer.
On the day of photo shoot, I realized his chin was covered with red rash. It was perfectly clean till the day before, but why today! (><). Anyway we had our booking and headed to the studio.
For the costume I was thinking taxido but we decided to use “Momo-taro” instead. Hiro was happy…. just until we tried to change his clothes. He started crying when he saw “strangers” (staff at the studio). He cried and cried, and all his photo was his unhappy face with tears 
This is the photo we chose out of those screamig faces…
I didn’t think he would be chosen for Kid’s Tokei, but I sent this photo anyway.
….. Guess what! He is chosen for a Kid’s-tokei model!
We are having the photo shoot for website this Friday, and he will be on kid’s-tokei website around May this year 
)). I want to update about it when it comes closer to the date.
Here is an unique Christmas gift idea. Upload a photo and make your own pillow!
PillowMob makes your custom pillow and ship worldwide. You can also chose to buy featured designs such as animal and people.
It’s $30.00 each, and it includes shipping fee! I think it’s very reasonable price. There are two options for the size : oval and circle. Whichever you chose, I’m sure it will be a great gift to surprise your friends or families!

Today it’s raining, but it had been wonderful weather here in Perth. Warm, sunny spring. Not now though… Heavy rain outside. News of Steve Jobs has been everywhere since Thursday. I knew him just as little as other people did, but D has been one of the people who admire Steve since long time ago.
I didn’t really think about how we started to use computers and Internet in everyday lives many years ago, until I saw the news. GUI, mouse… To think about it, we wouldn’t be leading our lives like today if Steve didn’t invent these gadgets… I can just say “sugoi” about him. He changed the way we live.
D wanted to visit Apple store yesterday, so we headed to city. We had quick lunch at Matsuri in Enex beforehand. This Matauri does special bent box for $6.00. The menu changes day to day, but yesterday was chicken katsu again. They keep 1 ~ 2 in the counter showcase so that busy people can just grab and run, but you can also ask for fresh-made.
The Apple shop was busy just like normal Saturdays. There’re flowers and fruits for Steve in front of the store, and people had written few words for him in Post-It and sticked to the shop windows. Few people were gathering around the flowers and taking photos.
Inside the store has been changed. There are iPads placed next to each products, and customers can brows the info of the products on iPad. You can call staff via iPad if you need assistance or purchase the item as well, by tapping the “call staff” button.
We bought a iPod Nano because D wanted to use it as a watch. New Nano has new watch faces, which you can also download online.
They look so cute! Colorful Nano would go with Carmit and Micky watch faces, but D bought dark silver and wants to get metal watch band, so he will probably use something less casual for the watch face, I guess.

There are few coupon sites in Japan now, and I’m subscribed to their daily deal emails. It’s just that Japanese coupon sites offer much better deals than those in Australia. Australian coupon sites, such as Scoopon, DealMe, LivingSocial etc, offer quite same deals over and over and I’m little bored with them.
I check deals at Groupon and Ponpare at the moment, but I prefer Ponpare. Their deals are more interesting than those at Groupon. So far I’ve purchased 4 coupons from Ponpare: ¥500 worth MacDonald’s voucher for ¥100, 86% off hotel stay at hotel in Osaka Umeda for ¥10000 for two, 80% off skin whitening masks for ¥1050 etc. These things are what we may actually use! Groupon’s offers are always discounted hotels, discounted restaurants, and discounted activities. I like Ponpare because they have lots of free-shipping items on deals and they are pretty cheap, such as more than 50% off on organic shampoo set, electric items, photo print services and fashion items.
Sigh… after checking these interesting offers for hair salon, I wish I were there right now! Cut, colour, perm, etc etc are so cheap and these salons are pretty well-known. I’d pay ¥2000 hair colour package without hesitation.
I’m checking these up everyday so that I can use the coupons when we go there I’ve ordered several ¥500 worth MacDonald’s vouchers already, so we may be probably spending lots of time at MacDonald’s this time :p
