The Desperate Toilet Poll

This is a weird question that popped to my mind after seeing people's reaction upon entering the toilet - toilet after it is used by the previous person, leaving the toilet with a very unpleasant smell that you think you'd puke.

So here goes~



When you finish with the toilet (doing the number 2) leaving the natural odor behind, the reactions of people who enter the toilet, which do you prefer of these three:

1. One who says, “Eww, it stinks, man.” - Makes a big fuss over it until it makes your face red, but then he waits until the smell disappears.
2. One who doesn't say anything, but exaggeratedly sprays the perfume in unbelievable manner, flush the toilet twice, and then do his business.
3. One who doesn't say anything, entered the toilet, endured the smell, but as a reward to his kindness he vomits to the shock of the unbelievably smelly odor.

Please vote (the poll is below - shortened) and if you wish, you may share your opinion by commenting on this post ~

Which do you desperately prefer of the three reactions (mentioned above)?

[Book Review] Young Samurai #6 – The Ring of Fire

I've been for such a long time for this book to come out! Well, to be honest... I kind of think that the 5th book is a bit childish. Dunno, is it only me getting older or is is the book is kind of a bit of kiddies. Anyway, stepping that aside (well, it is children's li, the story very interesting. It's heart warming to see Jack being reunited with his friends. And there're also a lot of tragic cases and scenes that robs your heart. When I read the the Ring of Fire, reading Jack and his friends plotting, making strategies, advancing and so on, I felt just like being with them!

Summary

After a snowstorm forces him to take shelter, Jack comes across a village in need of protection from raiding mountain bandits. Torn between moving on or helping, Jack is persuaded to stay and fight the villagers' cause.

[Japanese] Weather Forecast & Seasons of the Year!

The seasons result from the Earth's axis being tilted to its orbital plane; it deviates by an angle of approximately 23.5 degrees. Thus, at any given time during summer or winter, one part of the planet is more directly exposed to the rays of the Sun (see Fig. 1). This exposure alternates as the Earth revolves in its orbit. Therefore, at any given time, regardless of season, the northern and southern hemispheres experience opposite seasons.

The effect of axis tilt is observable from the change in day length, and altitude of the Sun at noon (the culmination of the Sun), during a year… so-

STOP ! STOP , STOP , STOP !

Oh, sorry (for going off-topic …)…

*Kaoko made a tea and sat beside the window*

Kaoko: あぁ、 世界を見ながらお茶を飲むとさいこうだわ！ (Ā〜  sekai wo minagara ocha wo nomu to saikou da wa.) - Ah~ Drinking tea while viewing the world is the best .

Kaoko's Animated GIF Collection Vol. 1

Hello, ladies and germs! For today, I’m going to share my beautiful art works of… Animated GIFs!

Well, you see… I’ve made many GIFs including funny gifs, anime food gifs, violent gifs, crazy gifs, annoying gifs, etc. until the folder I store my gifs in reached the climax around 150 MB. And that’s when an idea pooped into my brain! Whenever the storage reached 150 MB, I’ll zip it, upload it, and then share it with the world!

[Japanese] Jikan-chan! It’s Time! Clocks & Time Reading!

Yuki: ね、カオコちゃん、今何時? (Ne, Kaoko-chan, ima nan ji?) - Hey, Kaoko-chan. What time is it now?

Kaoko: 十一時五分だよ。 (Juu ichi ji go fun da yo.) - It’s fifty past eleven.

In this lecture, I, Kaoko-sama… will be teaching how to read times in Japanese, and many few other things. I have posted a post about numbers and counting, so I hope you’ve already read them, or you’ve already know how to count from zero to hundred (and that’s fair enough).

Reading time in Japanese is very simple. Like saying 5 o’clock, you’ll just have to add ji, after the number: go ji (five o’clock), roku ji (six o’clock), nana ji (seven o’clock), etc.

Anyway, let’s learn everything in order!

[Book Review] Japanese Verbs: Saying What You Mean

This book helped me a lot in my Japanese studies! Simple explanation, good examples, and wonderful teacher!

First I knew about Tim-sensei (the book’s author) was when I was looking for a website which teaches you about Japanese verbs. His site came first on the google search list. The website was very simple and I find it really useful; many notes to take, many lessons to learn from, and many other things.

Because I didn’t have a printer back then, I use to take 2 hours of my time a day, and sit next to the laptop with a notebook and my pencil case.

I will copy each lesson with a determined heart. Until one day I ended up buying the book from the Amazon!

I never regretted my choice. It really did help me in many ways!
