YouTube Medal?!

Yesterday, I saw a gold medal on my YouTube channel "temporarily". LoL



I hope it is not the first and last time to see it. (It always displays in Japanese and can't change the language in my account, maybe because I live in Japan, but do you see my profile in English?!)

I'm not yet pretty sure how the YouTube works. It seems like I need to upload more videos to generate more traffic, but so far, I am happy to hear that my blog buddies enjoy my videos :D

I'm glad I came up to this idea to create videos.

I want to best use my time, while young and vital. hahaha. But one happy thing other than my age is that I used a weight scale that you can measure inside of the body, and my age was 23!!! Amazing huh?!

BTW, yesterday, my darling's research report was quoted on the Yahoo article! Sorry, it's in Japanese, but I'm happy with it ;D

Silicon tools are now popular in Japan. There was a contest using a microwavable silicon pot and I won a grand prize! You can substitute it with a deep microwavable deep dish or container, of course.

I hope all ingredients are available around!

Note: Depending on the heat of the microwave, cooking time may differ.

Olympus E-500 5th Anniversary

Today is the 5th Anniversary of my "Olympus E-500" (single-lens reflex) :D



5 years ago, my favorite camera Canon IXY DIGITAL L broke, so I decided to get the Olympus SLR with ZUIKO DIGITAL 35mm F3.5 Macro. Since I couldn't live without a camera, I remember I ran to an electronics retail store during lunch time (while at work) to get it. LoL So far I love it :) But I heard it's life-span is about 6 years... so I'm afraid of it's end X(

Anyways, I have been taking billions of pictures of my foods using it.

I appreciate it :D

Can you live without a camera?! hehe
