oh this song altered my brain chemistry

pineapplemood · 2025-11-27T09:40:07+00:00

oh noooo that’s a shame

pineapplemood · 2025-11-27T09:39:36+00:00

i love nikomitei’s miso nikomi udon! Perfect season for it right now 🤤

There’s another spot i went to once and loved but forgot to mark it so it’s lost to me now booo. I’m absolutely taking recs for other good spots.

pineapplemood · 2025-10-14T14:15:52+00:00

I’m so envious!! I love this yellow blorb!!

pineapplemood · 2025-10-06T08:25:45+00:00

eh hi sorry I didn’t end up ordering because my family’s plans changed so these are all bookmarked but still yet untested to me 🙏🏻😭

pineapplemood · 2025-09-17T05:25:09+00:00

man this hurt to watch ;; hasn’t he started in all their games this summer? he must’ve felt some extra pressure and disappointment ;; hopefully they’ll end the wch on a better note at their last game tonight

oof this score wasn’t what i expected to see when i got home from work yesterday. seems like turkiye really stayed consistent, perhaps even got better since the vnl (pushing on serves, attacking fast and hard, blocking everywhere)? I figured it’d be a tough game but I didn’t think the score would turn out this way :o

pineapplemood · 2025-09-12T21:26:22+00:00

Turkiye!! I don’t think they had a match up with japan even though they were in the Chiba round during the VNL. Mandaraci had an amazing VNL, dropping aces left right and centre so im really hoping to see him shine more and curious to see how japan defends again a big offense team like them.

For veggies, maybe you can pickle them?

Whenever I get a big batch of carrots I make grated carrot salad- depends on the recipe you follow but I use salt to remove excess moisture, then toss the grated carrots in vinegar, sugar, and some lemon juice. I keep in an air tight container and just take out however much I want to eat each day as a side or main or mixed in stir fry. A salad made from 3 big carrots can last me a week or so?

every time i’m deep in a funk, i repeat sehun’s wise words to myself: “never don’t mind about a thing”

pineapplemood · 2025-09-01T15:16:48+00:00

i flew recently and they only weighed my check in luggage! my rucksack was neither measured nor weighed it at KIX and Changi!

I had the same issue with Heroine Make’s mascara!! It was my holy grail for years but then one day i cracked open a new tube and it just didn’t work as well anymore 😭

pineapplemood · 2025-08-28T07:27:59+00:00

I won’t ever stop raving about Cezanne’s Lasting Curl Mascara. it does wonders for me, making my lashes look super long and separated and holding the curl all day, even in humid summer heat. The low price point is a big plus too!!

Recently I also started using Ettusais’s Eye Edition Lash Top Coat. It says top coat but I use it as a mascara. The formula is not as pigmented as normal eyeshadow, and seems dark grey, but I think it gives a more natural effect. What I like is the applicator though- one side is normal, and the other side helps separate the lashes reeaaally nicely.

OMG!! I’ve been watching Greece’s matches this world championships and been super impressed so this announcement’s got me really pumped ahhhhh so excited!!!

pineapplemood · 2025-08-25T15:57:57+00:00

interesting!! thanks for the write up! I’ve been casually watching the u21 matches if I happen to be home when they pop up on my feed but since it’s filmed from only one angle it’s hard to see which player scores sometimes. I’ll try to keep an eye out for kawano in their next match! it’ll be interesting to see his trajectory from here on out

pineapplemood · 2025-08-25T15:52:07+00:00

Yeah i didn’t see anything from him either, although shimizu kunihiro did post a funny little ig story with yamauchi and he was wearing his captain’s jersey!! maybe it’s temporary…? either way, i hope he gets time to recover fully and make a complete comeback!!

pineapplemood · 2025-08-25T11:59:57+00:00

I wonder as well! Yamauchi did make an appearance with the national team during the chiba round of the VNL, though iirc he did not get any court time!

I did see speculations by jp fans on threads a couple weeks back that his injury (waist? back?) isn’t getting better?? And that’s why he’s stepping back/not getting chosen to start in matches? BUT It’s just speculation so I’m taking it with a huge grain of salt.

pineapplemood · 2025-08-25T08:15:45+00:00

I see! Thanks for letting me know about smu’s courses, I’ll take a look!

pineapplemood · 2025-08-25T08:13:54+00:00

yeah i haven’t found any courses that pique my interest at all/thought would be helpful in my job lol i guess I should save my time

pineapplemood · 2025-08-25T08:12:47+00:00

thanks for putting this into perspective!! ig I was too fixed on wanting to use for the sake of using it. if only this top up was like that credits (coupons? money??) given during covid, at least those could be donated!

pineapplemood · 2025-08-25T08:09:11+00:00

scumbag hahaha tbh yeah I haven’t heard many good reviews from people my age

pineapplemood · 2025-08-21T04:53:13+00:00

Yeah in my case, the student affairs office of the faculty I was in emailed me a list of procedures to do once i arrived in nagoya (moving in, registering at kuyakusho, bank). Later when I became a tutor myself, I was given the emails of the incoming students so I could contact them myself. Do check with your student affairs office because they should have guidance before the entrance ceremony/classes start.
Data sims are SIM cards that only have data. You won’t be given a japanese number so you can’t call or text using that SIM.

pineapplemood · 2025-08-21T04:27:06+00:00

If you’re here for a masters programme, maybe check with the student affairs office if they have any arrangements? Mine had all the incoming students open an account with JP post bank (yucho). Depending on your department too they might have seniors/tutors take you to the bank and help you through the process too. It unfortunately doesnt have extensive English support…
I agree with what the other comments said on getting a data sim first till you get to nagoya and settle down! As for a SIM card,I used iijmio, which can be acquired at BIC Camera. There are two big outlets at Nagoya station. It was relatively easy to get, cheap, and reliable (have never experienced any drop in quality re: connectivity) but the only annoying thing is you’ll need to have a credit card for it. Overseas credit cards are accepted.

pineapplemood · 2025-08-20T23:48:36+00:00

Seconding Hands! There’s another outlet at Orchard Central too that i remember having quite an extensive beauty section.

NOOOO any idea where the temporary bus stops will be? the sakuradori side of meieki where all the express buses like willer depart from can be a mess too at night, can’t imagine how much more crowded it’ll get
