Cool Stuff no. 3




I went to Japan as a exchange student for a month. My host mom dressed me up in a kimono. It was the coolest thing I've ever experienced. I actually went grocery shopping in it!





Do I look like a Japanese? :)









Here is a picture of

me and Daibutsu (Buddha)...









We went to a zoo and here is a cross breed between a giraffe and a zebra. Fun fact is that they actually reproduce! I saw a baby when we were there.
Whooops! Sorry, much to my dismay, Sarah found out that its not a cross breed. Sad :( That would have been very cool though.
So all this time(2 years), I thought it was a cross breed! huhuhu... I'm really sad. I'm like a kid who suddenly found out that Santa Claus isn't real. :(
I've always been fascinated by Geishas.
Here is a Meihina dance.
Don't you ever wonder how a Geisha does her make-up? Those who wanna try it, here's a link:(Warning: 12 mins. long)
I'm gonna try this someday.

  1. Um... Bianca I'm pretty sure that is an Okapi not a crossbreed between a giraffe and a zebra.

  2. Bianca- it's so neat that you got to live in Japan for a month. So I'm sure you were much more used to the instrumental music of Japan than the rest of us. What a fantastic experience! Did you have host brothers/sisters and did you get to listen to modern like teen music of Japan?
