“iPhone 12 Mini” Cedar Park, 2021

Today I got a new phone. It’s a green iPhone 12 Mini, and my first iPhone ever. I’ve been using Android phones since the first one (the T-Mobile G1 / HTC Dream), but thought I might as well switch things up this time. My Moto G6 was showing a bit of age and was getting sluggish, especially when using Android Auto in the car. I looked at other Android phones but decided on the small iPhone. I like the design and the size. It’s very cute!

I’m still getting used to iOS, but it’s not too sharp of a learning curve. And Apple Carplay seems to work very well in the Subaru! Maybe my next phone will be Android, but who knows? It’s nice to try something different once in a while.

I hope you had a good day! またね~

Ghibli Food

I know the general consensus is that the food in Ghibli movies looks amazingly delicious, but I’m going to have to say that it never seems appetizing to me. It always just looks flat and blah and I always think what a missed opportunity it was. It’s a shame that I cannot feel enthusiastic about the food, but I guess it’s just a psychological mismatch I will have to bear. I’m happy (and a bit jealous) for everyone who can get excited about it, though.

Anyways, I do follow illustrator Nabatame Kazutaka, whose food looks absolutely delicious to me. Just look at this curry and this shumai bento box! おいしそう!
