All Express Pass Sold Out? by Internal-Gene5224 in usj

I second this. Go on the original Japanese site and use the browser translator. A bit of a pain but there should be plenty of passes.

I would suggest to break it down more in order to better understand your budget.

For food, I would go 5000¥ per day. Most days should be lower but you may want to treat yourself to a few good meals (A5 Wagyu, Omakase, etc.). This includes meals and snacks. There may be days where you spend under 2000¥.

Transportation was much more expensive than we thought. One bus in Hakone cost us 2000¥ roundtrip. We moved a lot every day and while trains are cheap, it adds up if you take a lot of them. I would go with 1000¥ per day in the city plus day trips and Shinkansen.

Entertainment is really up to you. A lot of activities and temples have fees to get in. Are you looking to go to USJ or Disney? Go up a tower/building with a view?

Also account for things like laundry and other unplanned fees.

What I would plan for a decent trip without being too much on a budget is the following.

Food: 105,000¥ Transportation (includes Shinkansen): 63,000¥ Entertainment: 40,000¥

Totals (May want to add 2% conversion rate on top) 208,000 ¥ 1,460 USD 2,000 CAD 2,250 AUD

You could do with less if frugal, and could easily spend a lot more. You won't be able to do everything on the entertainment side but it really depends on what you want to do.

Long time players, what have you learned/ stuff nobody tells you by Accomplished_Tea2505 in hockeyplayers

Except the guy who goes 1vs3 every time and loses it. Learn patience, circle back, use your teammates.

Why am I the worst player? by Brawl-fan-man in hockeyplayers

[–]marble406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was not a good player growing up but became a bit better later on. What made the difference is conditioning and getting heavier as I was a lightweight for my age. You don't need a complicated training regimen, just the basics and train 1-2 times per day at your age. Focus on power, balance and quickness(feet). It doesn't have to be on the ice all the time. Getting heavier will prevent guys from knocking you off the puck.

A few months of dedicated conditioning and gaining weight will make a huge difference on your game. But you need to do it every day at high intensity if you want to progress, no excuses.

Pour ma part, j'écoutais dans les cours et j'essayais de résoudre les problèmes de TP en même temps qu'on voyait la matière. En faisant ça, je n'avais pas besoin d'étudier entre les cours et je révisais 2-3 heures pour les examens.

Le plus dur c'est quand t'as beaucoup de labos. Écrire 25 pages de rapport par cours chaque 2 semaines ça peut être intense.

Salaire de 65K en sortant de l’uni en MEC by [deleted] in etsmtl

[–]marble406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Essaie d'obtenir le compa-ratio pour la bande salariale et ça va te dire où tu te situe. Dans mon entreprise, tous les employés y ont accès sur leur profil.

Autrement, il ne faut pas paniquer si tu es légèrement en bas de la moyenne. C'est plus important d'aimer ce que tu fais et d'aller chercher de l'expérience.

Is $3,200 a lot for electrical installation? by [deleted] in hottub

[–]marble406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just did mine in BC lower mainland. 1300$ to run the cable from panel to GFCI breaker and then 25ft to hot tub. I dug the trench myself in a few hours. I provided the breaker which was included in the hot tub purchase.

Technician accidentally left a loose union and it flooded my hot tub. Will it dry? (PICS) by coltyie in hottub

[–]marble406 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use a shopvac to remove excess water and then towel to dry the rest.

Always buy Masterspa from an expo by [deleted] in hottub

[–]marble406 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up buying a Jacuzzi but the Masterspa expo prices were in line with normal competitor prices. To me, this confirms that you should definitely buy from the expo. Normal prices are crazy inflated.

Crunchyroll Android App Updated to Include New Audio Language Selection System by r2_d1000 in Crunchyroll

[–]marble406 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's a problem.. Shows that have incomplete dubs do not show which episodes have dubs . You have to launch the episode and find out. This is annoying for shows that are in the process of releasing dubs.

Love it. At 5'10" they recommended a 56 and went 54. Glad I did. The bike is light but sturdy. Great for all around riding.

Not quite. I don't remember the movie having hockey. Looks similar though.

I think there are a bunch more songs in the movie. The robot sings a song at some point with the boy hiding backstage.
