I found Honey and Clover (Japanese movie) at the local library and decided to give it a try since I have heard about the manga, but never really knew anything about it. The description on the back seemed to match the kind of movie I would be interested in: A group of art school students’ lives and the relationships that develop between them. While the characters were interesting and the setting of the story kept my attention, the plot itself was so lacking that I found myself wondering why I was watching the movie. I kept waiting for something interesting to happen, but nothing really does. Well, at least nothing that I would make a movie over. The love stories never really develop, the characters don’t grow so much, and I kind of find it difficult to remember how the movie ended, even though I just watched it a few days ago. I’m sure the manga must be good, but the movie just falls flat. Disappointed!
My camera & photos
I use a Fujifilm X-series camera for most of the photos on this site and my Instagram. Why not pick one up for yourself?
Sunset at Mauna Kea. Haleakala in the distance.
Stargazing from Mauna Kea.
Pretty clouds. I'll never get tired of them.
Like a dreamscape...
Sunset already
Lovely day to be on two wheels 🏍
Cute leaves 💚
I love the window seat.
Oyakodon is one of my favorite meals. Not the "if you could eat anything as your last meal" dish, but pretty close. I often ask for oyakodon for my birthday or father's day, and my wife kind of rolls her eyes because it's such a common and unspecial meal, but I love it nonetheless.

It’s probably different if you’ve read the entire manga, but I cry my face off when I watch this movie! It’s been in my collection a long time. The drama is good too!
Good to know! I am going to check out the library today to see they have have the manga!
