Beautiful (or Cool) Japanese Words?

Filed under: Misc. — nomo17k @ 23:31

I’m currently on a personal mission to find a Japanese word to describe my personal operations.  I want to find a word that sounds and look beautiful and/or cool in Japanese as well as in English (when it’s spelled out in alphabets).

Eventually I hope to use it as a (part of) domain name (which will be my Web portal for my freelance work such as writing, coding, etc.), but the search has actually been quite slow and difficult.  Not surprisingly, many suitable words are already taken by someone else.

Hmmm.  I will keep listing candidates here.

  • okome (お米)
    • Just because I love rice…
  • more to come

Any ideas…?

Renewing My Passport

All the info appears to be listed here. For this one I have to visit the consulate general of Japan in person. How inconvenient.

Getting a Work Permit for Canada

This page appears to have all the information.

Looks like I don’t have to travel down to LA just to submit my application, which is good.

First post!

Filed under: Misc. — nomo17k @ 16:42

This is my first post for this blog. I used to have all my own contents in an old-fashioned “home page” type of thing, but blogs are indeed useful as I read them all the time!

I’ll move much of my content here to call this my new home.  There might be some stuff of interests for others but I realized having them in flat ASCII text files hides them from search engines’ attention…
