Making Pizza

Making Pizza is one of my new hobbies in Japan. Please take a look at my creation. I have tried many kinds of topping in my pizza, from beef, corn and fish, potatoes, and even cucumber and banana. Why don't you try your own? It's fun to make pizza, perhaps you can make a better dough as you try it over and over. Don't be afraid to do so, at least you have one consumer, yourself. It reminds me to the poet: Don't blame the baker if you ask a butcher to make your bread. But it is pizza, there is nobody to blame for :)









GRIPS Campus, Small but Smart

Perhaps some of you did not know GRIPS, it is stand for the National Graduate Institute for Policy Study. This institution is located at Roppongi - Tokyo, Japan. Last year, I found it difficult to locate this campus by using google earth, there was no information at all about it. The popular places next to it are the Museum of National Art Centre and the US Army Base in Roppongi, as they were marked by the google earth community. Not suprisingly, today, one year later, there is still no information about it in the google earth (there is one info actually, but it was wrongly noted as the part of the museum). Perhaps this campus does not want to be recognized, it chooses to to hide itself in the heart of Roppongi area. Two months ago I got the roppongi map for tourist guide, and this campus also left out from the map. The upper left side of the map is the museum, and GRIPS campus was totally disappear.

So, I hope you have a leisure time now. Please look at the process of the construction of this magnificient campus here GRIPS ROPPONGI CAMPUS and here Roppongi Grips. I am sure that it will bring you to the fact how smart this campus is and how small it is as well.
