Life in London

Thanks to everyone who supported me, I finally got a job! It's UI design agency in London. I will be UX designer! My money in the bank was going to be zero by the end of August, I was thinking of returning to Japan if I can't get it. So this is the summary of […]

The second week of the internship. It's still part-time so just 3days a week. In this week, I attended a meeting for brainstorming, did some research for a pitch, and worked on wireframing. Everything goes so quickly. Meetings look so quick, everything is decided so quickly and everything is documented so quickly. Although sometimes I […]

I update my blog less often since I started Twitter...Well it's also because I'm too busy to do longer writing... Anyway, I also tweeted about this while ago but I finally got a chance to do intern. It's at SyZyGy. (By the way, this name "SyZyGy" is really difficult for Japanese to pronounce...It's typical three […]

It's been two months already since I updated my blog the last time? I don't believe this... Today this is a quick update post. I got a new visa successfully in the beginning of Feb, but am still struggling to find a job. I even can't get a chance of interviews. I thought maybe my […]

Thanks to everyone, I had a wonderful Xmas this year too.For the eve, my friend kindly invited me to the dinner with her family, and I could enjoy very "proper" Xmas atmosphere. (Sometimes how we cerebrate Xmas is a bit wrong in Japan.)My friend is always good at cooking… and now I know why, because […]

Ok, I'm always complaining about the service at UAL , so I would like to write about a good thing today! I went to attend a workshop by creative career. They provide service like advice on career issues, freelancers issue etc., but the workshop was about "confidence in your career". I'm not a confident person […]

I had a very productive day on the other day. For lunch, I met a friend whom I hadn't met for a while. She is in the exactly same position as I am in (i.e. finished master, switching to psw) so chatting with her is really fun and we can understand each other. She is […]

After staying in Japan for a while, I came back to London. It was wonderful to see lots of my friends, thank you! To whom I couldn't see this time despite you contacted me, I'm so sorry! I will definitely go to see you next time. During the stay, I went to see Kabuki, ate […]

I went to see onedotzero this year too. I didn't see any installation, so it's only about j-star09. They showed these movies. 1. Satoshi Tomioka : "Usavich" 2. Kitune Akimoto : "Meat or Die" 3. Hidenobu Tanabe : "Phantom Planet" (Beat Crusaders) 4. Takeshi Nakamura : "Mind Wall" 5. Shintaro Kago : "Terror on the […]

I went to see coldplay! It was amazing. It's still playing repeatedly in my head. Actually I was so excited already just because the place was Wembley. When I got to the station, I wished it was a football match... but no, that thought was wrong, coldplay was wonderful. I have seen coldplay twice in […]
