My dad and mum visited us just now for a dinner with us.
They seemed they liked our apartment, and they look happy.
Furthermore our dog Coles liked here as well, she ran around and had a relaxed time.
We made a pizza and latatuiyu? I donno how to spell it, its a italian dish with cheese, veges and mince meet with Tomoto sauce.
Anyway it was good dinner and we had a good time with my parents.
I bought a kickass TV which Hamish told me to buy Matt and Beverly an advanced TV, yes that one. Sorry Matt, this TV is only working in Japan!LOL
Anyway TV arrived here on Saturday. yes yes, I connected it with TV cable,,,,
BUTTTT,,,,, This apartment does not have a digital TV line, bummer..
Here is only for an analog normal TV...
I called up the agent and he came here and explain the details...
I just told him, I dont care what you said, I just wanna watch a digital HD program, at least analog TV with perfect condition. Actually I could watch the analog program but the quality of the radiowave was so crap,,, I could see the ghost figure in the TV.
He will reply me what he is going to do next week or so.
I will keep complaining unless this gets better.
Simon told me before when ppl get older, ppl complain a lot even a small thing.
Now I know that is ME! LOL hahhaha
I bet you guys are the same! LOL

143,,, damn it
Last Saturday, we went to play the real golf with Kubo chan, Ogachin and Sophie.
And this was my first time to play 18 holes!
Guess the result, my score was 143....PAR70 course. Which is not good.
And Sophie got 120. And Ogachin 99, Kubochan 102.
Why my score was so bad ? Bcuz I hit OB so many times specially for the first shot!
In this course if u hit a OB for the first shot, you have to move on ,and hit the 4th shot from the halfway though the course...it say playing 4th rule...
Anyway my score wasnt good but I had a fun! And Sophie is very happy to beat me:-(
Luckly I got 2 par !
cant wait to be better next time.

Oh--my stomach
Taiwan shinkansen just like a Japanese one. Specially inside of the compartment. I wasnt suprised at all.
Our supplier guy called Kevin and Ryu said this is the best Tomato.
And this was with ginger soy sauce?! donno inside but it was not bad. But not the best.
this was also Kevin's favorite quail bird egg. it was like Takoyaki cooking but taste like exactly an egg....
I dont know why Taiwanese told me this is the best food...
However on the other hand, Beverly told me the BBQ corn. And I ate it on the first day!
It was delicious, like the corn became gummy and on top of that it was with pee nuts source.
That was my high light food in Tainan, thanks Beverly.
I also had a heaps of pearl milk tea. Everytime I drink it, it reminds me the best fun day of sunny bank life with Simon.
Anyway our meeting went well, Kevin did a few mistakes but he did a good job for the tour guide in Kaohsiung area.
On the 3rd day, Kevin was sick because of probably food poisoning or something.
Non of us was OK except for Kevin , Taiwan boy was sick. It was kinda funny at that point.
However story goes on... when I arrived in the airport, I kinda feel cold.
Then still felt cold on the airplain...and when I got to Japan...I had a diarrhea.
And full on pain in my stomach... feel cold and sharp pain in my stomach.
I was almost vomit at the airport but I managed to hold it.
Now here it goes worse... when I got home, I was almost dying...
I went to bed straight away. next day I woke up, oh my gosh, I had a very vey bad stomachach...
But I had to go to work yesterday...I managed to kill the work time and straight to go back home . After I ate the dinner which Sophie made me a very nice risotto, I suddenly got a sharp pain in my stomach again... then I went to bed like falling down.
It was 20:00 and I woke up about 6:30 am....... I slept like an baby.
Now I recovered 80%. I dont know why this happen but this is not the first time.
This was the 3rd time when I got a stomach pain after business trip to Asia...
I'd better pay attention to the asian food!!
One more funny thing, another supplier's guy got an same symptom with me and Kevin.
I assume we all had a bad food!! hahahha what a trip!
nasty taste Binran. This is the chuwie like taiwan yobbo eat.
Probably this nuddle restaurant made us all sick.This master guy forced us to put the hot spicy oil in it!! It was pretty hot...
Tainan night market. It was nice to see this. but not many interesting things for me...Sunday, 14 June 2009
Going to TAIWAN
Tomorrow Im going to Tainan in TAIWAN.
That is because we have a supplier there, I will go and visit them for the new product inspection.
I hope it goes well... but this supplier sometimes makes mistake, so I am kinda worried about it.
Anyway I will upload some of the photos when I get back.
And Thanks Beverly for your tourist advice in Taiwan! I hope I can get some free time!
Im worried about one more thing, it seems like raining during my visit...
No rain pleaseeeeeeee
Ok then, Ittekima---su!

PA system was all for mine
I finally talked with Hamish and Andy over the phone today during the work time!
I was on air with them for a few seconds, it was the segment called International PA system!
Damn I was so nervus to speak English over the phone, specially during work.
As soon as my mobile rang, I ran outside and pick up the phone.
Then the girl connected me to some guys and he said, are you ready to go?
And I said yeh OK. Then Andy's voice is gradually hearing...
He said, Ken from Japan, PA system is all for yours!
I thought, WOW its my turn!!!! damn I was tense!! then I spoke it somehow.
It wasnt good english but I managed to leave my message there! LOL
I hope Matt and Berverley heard the message.
As I got email from them at the lunch time, which said we will call you around 17:00 AUS time....
I couldnt concentrate my work at all, and thinking about what should I say, what should I say!LOL
If you wanna check out my tense voice, click and download the 6/12 podcast of Hamish and Andy show!

Golf analyze! Ken vs Jamie 2008 long driving champ
Phew--- I just finish making this sequence photo of me vs 2008 world champion Jamie Sadlowski.
I am analyzing my swing vs his swing now.
As you can see the 4th photo, my back swing is not that flexible than Jamie. He has got an amazing flexibility...and 5th pic, he retains his list angle a lot better than mine.
6th pic, both of us got an good kickback of the shaft. But Jamie has got an strong left arm.
Jamie has 434Yard record!
Jamie can swing 65m/s head speed, hence I guess I can swing around 53m/s head speed.
I need to have much more flexibility to beat this guy.
However the point is he is 21 years old, and I will be 31 years old this year. Furthermore I jsut started golf 6months ago!
Generally speaking, it is impossible to beat this guy!!
But see how the last Samurai do! hehehehheh

Oh---yes 100M internet connection
I finally got an internet connection... it took a bloody long time after I order it.
Anyway NTT guy which is phone company jsut came here to set up the internet.
I could use the internet! Finally yes yes.
This internet connection is pretty fast one, I ordered the 100M optimal connection.
I dont think I get the 100M but I feel this is much more faster than the one I used to use it.

Microphone of the washing machine
This is our favorite washing machine.
You can see this microphone shape thing.
As you know Japan is one of the highest technology country,
therefore you can order how you wanna wash to the washing machine,
Furthermore if you sing a song, this washing machine will be a massive speaker!
How cool is that?! hahahha just kidding
Long Driving competition
Yesterday I and Tanaka san went to check out the Long driving competition in Takatsuki GC Osaka.
I was expected too much, so it was a bit dissapointed it.
because it is not many audience and not well organized...
But the guys were very hard core hitters. Most of them can hit over 300Y.
And a few guys could hit over 350Y.
One guy called Minamide, he seemed like a famous guy in a long driving world.
I guess most of audience wanted to see his swing.
Yes he was one of the best hitter, unfoutunately he could not get the title.
In the final session, all of his balls were out of grid.
Anyway it was fun day. I am sure I can beat these guys next year. hehehhe

Internet from 6/7
Ive got a dayoff today because I have to go to the city center and do some moving registration stuff...
I thought I can go golfing after that but unfortunately it seems like raining soon.
anyway our new life is doing good, internet will be open from 6/7 in about 10days.
I feel a bit bored if I dont have my PC. No news, No TV, No moves, No games,,,,
I guess its worth to pay 5000yen for internet connection for sure!
OK its time to go and get registered!

Who wants to fight ?
Master of Martial arts said If you beat the bear, you are the best of the best.
And I saw one guys fighting against the huge Grizzly bear!
But this Japanese guy knocked the Grizzly out!! And I got photos of his last counter punch!!
This bear hardly moved after this.
This is THE LAST SAMURAI of JAPAN, for sure!
Moving
Last night we went to IKEA to buy the furniture. I spend over 100000yen.
Which is a lot to me, because I am one of the best tightass japanese guy.
Anyway we bought a bed, kitchen table, dinning table, lamps, laundry bar and table...
As we went to IKEA fairy late night, before closing 30mins, they played a music called Hotaruno hikari which is when all the japanese hear this music, we know we have to leave here.
And we both hated this music, because it makes us urgent to leave...
So today was busy day to make and assemble everything.
It takes half day to finish!

1st year anniversary!
5/17 tomorrow y is our 1st year anniversary!!
Paul just sent me a message, that was pretty nice of him.
We are very happy he remembered our anniversary.
Today we are starting to move out from our parents house.
There was a bit of controversy with my mum but it happens not only this time..
She is one of the real Japanese mum,, so she want us to stay with them and keep our house.
I can understand what she is meant to be, but we have to move on starting our new life.
And I guess it is good in a way for them too.
I hope everything turns out well soon or after.
So now you guys can come down and stay with us anytime you want!
Welcome to our new apartment!

城陽オレンジゴルフ うっちぱなし
5/4 昼に和幸にうちっぱなししようと思ったら、満席・・・
ありえない・・・
ゴルフってこんなに人気あんの？！と痛感しました。
なので一旦帰宅し、夜六時から城陽オレンジゴルフへ→
１６００円で３時間打ちっぱなし・・・安い
ここが一番安いのではと思いながら、３７番打席へ（お気に入り打席）
今日はいつもより、Sweet hitが多くでました。
２００球くらいフルスイング、握力なくなったのでやめ、
１６００円でめっちゃ遊べました。
今日の成果は
バックスイングでの手首のひねり方を変えたら、捕まりがよくなった。
