Tokyo Nights
I’m slowly catching up, but still way behind with my Tokyo activities. Apologies if there are horrendous spelling and grammar mistakes, but it’s hard enough to draft a post on this thing let alone do any quality control. Another day of vascular surgery, another wound sutured. I didn’t expect to be so involved, but it…

The First Week (Well, almost all of it)
Apologies for the lack of updates, but things have been fairly non-stop since I started in the hospital on Monday. People generally don’t walk very far around these parts, and Katsu insisted I took a taxi on my first day so I wasn’t late, but in the busy morning traffic it proved impossible to hail…

Tokyo…how did it take me this long to get here?
This is an amazing city. I had my first vending machine experience at the airport – a beverage not entirely unlike fizzy grapefruit juice – and I see them absolutely everywhere. Nothing too odd so far, just drinks and cigarettes. I took the Limousine bus to the Grand Hyatt Hotel, and walked from there, much…

Sky Blog Two
I would’ve written sooner, but thanks to China blocking communications over their airspace I haven’t been able to get online for most of the flight. I’ve been up for a long time now and fatigue is starting to settle in. The last flight took a strange turn when I ended up sitting beside an Irish…

Sky Blog One
Blogging in the Sky There’s a first time for everything. First steps. First video game console. First kiss. All the important milestones, and now, this is both my first time using WiFi in the air, and my first time blogging from the sky. The Linx tablet is perfect for this scenario, given its compact size…

The Land of the Rising Sun – Brought to you by ODGamer
Huzzah! The first leg of my journey is well under way. I’m sitting in Dublin airport departures enjoying their (surprisingly) free WiFi, and attempting to get to grips with my portable blogging setup. I’ve brought my Linx 7 tablet and the Belkin QODE case, and I can already feel repetitive strain setting in. This isn’t …

Freedom, Japan, and Cameras
Tuesday marked my last exam, and I have been free as a bird since then. My time over the last week has been spent packing away things in Belfast, buying and getting to grips with my camera, and preparing for Japan. I still haven’t fully come to terms with the fact I’m going to Japan…

Internet Withdrawal
I started writing in the absence of internet in my Belfast home, but I have been online over the weekend thankfully. A week is too long. If Evil from Time Bandits was around today, perhaps he would not sought to have an understanding of computers, but rather the internet. That is how he would remain…

I don’t let Sleeping Dogs lie…and the Elections
Shock horror, this blog post is late. And perhaps an even bigger shock, I am going to talk about some games. I have been playing the odd PC game after the release of the second act of Broken Age stirred my interest in gaming, though I am yet to play that title. It has been…
