She’s too kawaii for enhancements

That’s what Dan Serafini said happened when he was injured playing baseball in Asia. Dan is free agent baseball pitcher who has recently signed on with the Colorado Rockies. But Dan has tested positive for performance enhancing drugs; he blames a Japanese doctor, whose name has not been disclosed, for the drugs the doctor prescribed to him to help with the injuries he suffered from last year in Asia. He tells the press “I have not taken these or any banned substances since returning to the U.S. and signing with the Colorado Rockies organization in July” (AFP). He also goes on to say that he will never seek treatment again from any overseas doctor and suggests major leaguers should only rely on US-based doctors. Via AFP

Mmmmm….Delicious

I’m not talking about “The Pope,” I’m talking about Derrick Pope who is the linebacker for the Miami Dolphins. “Don’t eat California rolls, and don’t eat shrimp tempura,” is what Pope said which explains his sickness and absence from part of the game against the Steeler’s. He was hospitalized last week Friday with a severe stomach ailment from Japanese food.

World’s largest melon pan has been made

shana

Shana’s dream come true ^^

Finally lol. The melon-pan in Japan was one of the most oishii (delicious) foods that I had eaten. The world’s largest melon pan was made in a bakery in Hokkaido and was made to 11 times the normal size of a regular melon pan (which is pretty big to begin with). The melon pan weights 1 kilogram and is 30 cm wide; the delicious pan can be purchased for 1,500 yen. If you wish, the bakery can make it into a birthday pan (bread) by writing a birthday message on the melon pan with chocolate.

Your parents send you to boot camp. Yes, I said boot camp. A boot camp now exists in South Korea, possibly the first of its kind in the whole world, which is created by South Korea’s goverment to help those addicted to the internet. The boot camp’s main target market is the youth of Korea who have grown up with the internet and can spend up to 17 hours a day on the internet, which includes web browsing, chatting, and online gaming. They would be on their computer all night long and skip school to catch up on sleep. Some would also die of exhaustion from continuous game play that would be days on end.
