I love trains. However, I don’t quite love this train game. I would be the person who would love this game, but I’m going to explain why even I don’t like Densha de Go! 64. I think most people wouldn’t have the patience for this game. While I am not writing this review for said …

Interesting…
One of the recent posts on Desiring God quotes G.K. Chesterton. I can’t quite figure out what the point is, yet I think it is interesting. I understand the first three paragraphs, and I thought that was interesting enough. But the final paragraph just throws me through a loop. Here is the quote: “When we …

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo Original Score Oscar Nomination Possibility
As the Oscars approaches, I thought I would do some posts leading up to it. Mainly, I thought it appropriate to talk about some of the contenders for certain categories beforehand. Since I like to talk a lot about my own predictions of the winners after the nominations are announced, now I would like to …

Japan Prefectures I’ve Visited
I have been to more than I think I have been to. It might not be fair to count Shizuoka, but I will count it anyways. Here they are (and the reasons, however strange or ‘unfair’) Chiba: If you’ve only been to Narita Airport, I think that doesn’t count. But if you have ever been …

Zelda: Skyward Sword Reviews
Many of the reviews for The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword feature perfect scores for the game. However, it is two major outlets that score the game at about 75% and 85% (when factored into a system of 0-100%) that make this case interesting. The reason it is interesting is because I cannot ignore these …

Daily Post Inspiration
In a nutshell, I was inspired to even do these daily posts by Tim Challies. Not directly, but I was indirectly inspired when I read one of his own posts in late October celebrating the anniversary of his blog. His blog is rather successful, I would think, and while I am not aiming for success, …

Nishinotoin Gate
I had a really good day today, and while I will talk about the rest of the day, I’d like to first mention about the highlight of my day. So there’s this ticket gate at JR Kyoto station that is quite unique. Most ticket gates (exits of stations) lead to streets, and occasionally underground areas. …

Makes a Christian
This may be the second time I have taken this kind of survey. The survey was 95% about other things than religion, but then it asked this question: “What makes you a Christian”. The answers are interesting. I tried to answer it in my mind before looking at the choices. Here were some of the …

I actually published this a tad past midnight on the 25th, so I had to cheat the post date and time to say I posted it before then. Sorry! I’ve been really busy!
