Completing My Dream Set

Posted on by sonokotchi

I updated my iPhone and Apple Watch; it’s time to update my earphone.

I mentioned before that I was disappointed that iPhone X doesn’t come with AirPods even though it’s written on the box.

Apple perhaps provides AirPods for overseas market; however, I believe Apple decided to provide a cable earphone for Japan because it’s not necessary to provide AirPods to attract users because iPhone occupies Japan market high as 70 percent.

Apple sells AirPods separately for USD 170 and connector for old earphone to new earphone jack/charger jack for USD 10.

Recently, I enjoy listening to music; therefore, I decided to update my earphone when I update iPhone.

I went to Yodobashi Akihabara, Tokyo today to check on totally wireless earphone such as Sony.

After trying few others, I decided to get Sony WF-1000X.

I am enjoying clear sounded music with its noise cancelling function.

I’m happy with this investment!

Horey!

Year-End

Posted on by sonokotchi

It’s raining and cold outside, 3C.

Today, I received a nice set of corporate calendar from my friend as a sign of Year-End.

Sending calendars is a traditional custom of Year-End: getting ready to receive a new year.

I like her corporate calendars because pictures are all beautiful Japanese sceneries.

I look at nice scenery of Japan when I get tired at office.

I plan to place all in my office room.

And I had Bonenkai (Year-End Gathering) at Malaysian Cuisine Penang Restaurant, Shiba-Keon, Tokyo.

We laughed over nice food.

Year-End is approaching.

Another Gadget

Posted on by sonokotchi

I’m taking days off.

I felt good when I was walking Ginza with no schedule and no plan.

Apple Store Ginza is dressed in Christmas.

Today, I went to buy Apple Watch Cellular!

I’ve waited to get my new iPhone so that I can do necessary setting with the expert.

So pretty!

It comes with two types of charger, including a charger stand. Yeah!

Now I want to get a pair of Bluetooth cordless earphone, earplug type like in the picture.

To my surprise, iPhone X didn’t come with AirPods and charger mat.

Earphone is in different shape of point so I won’t be able to use extra earphones from old iPhones.

Furthermore, I cannot charge and listen to music at the same time because the point/jack is the same.

That’s why now I want a pair of Bluetooth earphone to complete my set.

I invest, then use them.

I use my iPhone 6S and Apple Watch Series 1 for two years for everyday.

I will still keep them.

I unlock SIM for iPhone 6S so that I can use it where local SIM is available when I visit overseas and for backup.

Today, we cannot live without a mobile…

For Apple Watch, I can still use it when I want to change the look/fashion.

I didn’t see any point to renew my iPad to iPad Pro because at work, PC is Windows tablet PC so I still use iPad Mini 4 and I’m happy with it.

I still have one more day to play with new gadgets to find new functions.

I finally got my iPhone X.

I’m not good at keeping up to receive it on the launching date.

Unfortunately, I was trapped in the bug of iOS that kept on shutting down my iPhone ever 10 seconds to do the setting.

I managed to overcome the problem by formatting/resetting my iPhone.

I will play with it to find new functions.

Wadaya No Gohan (Wada’s Food) Making Body and Soul to Win Cancer!

Posted on by sonokotchi

Dr. Wada is teaching us how to prevent making and growing cancer.

Our daily life and eating habit creates cancer; on the other hand, we can also prevent making or growing greatly if we change our eating habit.

Cancer needs sugar/glucose to become cancer.

I should not overtake sugar and carbohydrate such as white rice, breads, pasta, etc.

Salts will give energy to cancer.

I should take less salts to reduce activities of cancer.

I should cut daily products such as milk, cheeses, yogurt, butter, etc. because it will grow cancer.

I should take good quality oil, omega 3 oil such as linseed oil, perilla oil, etc. and omega 9 such as olive oil.

To reduce salt, Dr. Wada advises to use dashi (umami: soup stock of konbu (seaweed) and katsuobushi (fish flakes) for cooking.

I will take his advice to change my eating habit to make my body and soul to prevent cancer.

I know it’s not easy because I love to eat and these delicious food is the one I should stop eating. Ahhhhhh
