Today I decided to make mushroom sauce pasta… It was scary, since I fucked it up 2 times before. I was feeling more confident this time, though…
火 June 9, 2026
It was raining for the first half of the day. I took my umbrella and went to the supermarket and bought supplies for mushroom sauce tagliattele, attempt 2. I feel a bit more comfortable now that I coo…

I had thesis pre-defense today. I’m really glad I ended up making a proper presentation, as it was required and everyone made one. Pre-defense is basically fake defense, you show your presentation and…
土 June 6, 2026
I spent the whole day feeling sleepy. Pre-defense of thesis is on Monday, so there’s no time left to procrastinate - had to finish the presentation today…
金 June 5, 2026
I went out and got the new laptop. Spent the morning setting it up, removing all the Windows telemetry shit…
木 June 4, 2026: Cloud of Unknowing
Today I tried turning Macbook on, and to my dismay, it didn’t work. The charger wouldn’t show any signs of life either. I probably shouldn’t have done this in the first place, but too late now. For so…
水 June 3, 2026
I finished reading Hard-boiled wonderland and the end of the world last night. The ending felt a bit abrupt. I was laying in the bed, feeling like there’s still a couple of chapters left, and then t…
火 June 2, 2026
It was a productive day. I finally gathered all of the documents for USA tourist visa. I also fixed ███████████████████████████. And then I wrote a lot of Koneko manual pages. It’s about 60% done. …

First day of the summer, huh… …
日 May 31, 2026
It rained hard today. When I thought about the rain, I realized that the last time it rained was almost a month ago, on the second day in Tokyo. It made me think that it doesn’t rain enough…
土 May 30, 2026
I recently got HabitNow program and it seems to be extremely useful. It really really helps me to do my tasks. I kinda dreamt of such program for a long time and I wish I found it sooner…
木 May 28, 2026
Finally went outside for the first time since I came from Japan, which is wild to think about. My legs somehow are still hurting, even though it’s been over a week now. …
水 May 27, 2026
I’ve been back to trying to not use the phone again, but this time it’s kinda harder for some reason. Maybe it’s because of ██████████████, but the urge is much stronger…
火 May 26, 2026
I once again played Minecraft for the most of the day. ████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████…
月 May 25, 2026
There’s still pretty decent online on server, although most people leave very quickly after… I think maybe 3-5 ppl remained after all…
日 May 24, 2026
Today we spent a lot of time configuring server, once again. We had to build some old mods, because the builds of them were lost after 13 years…
土 May 23, 2026
I played Minecraft literally the whole day. Started in the morning, ended at night…
金 May 22, 2026
Sooo, we started over again, as we switched to the new Minecraft server. This time I also got to fix the cool shaders, and we also fixed some mod issues and added hunger mod to make food mechanic more…

I think I overall ended up sleeping for 5-6 hours, which was better than I expected…
月 May 18, 2026: Japan 20: The End
And now it’s coming to an end… My flight is from Nagoya, so I’ve looked into the ways of getting there from Osaka. My 2 options were either to take a shinkansen, or take Kintetsu line there. I’ve de…
日 May 17, 2026: Japan 19: Nipponbashi Cosplay Festival
Welp, this is our last full day. Today we planned to just shop in Denden town and try to find fumos…
土 May 16, 2026: Japan 18: Umeda, Gachapons, Net cafe, Don Quijote
Today we’ve decided to check out Umeda. Mostly because I saw a place that has 2000 gachapons…
金 May 15, 2026: Japan 17: Kobe, beef, beach
Today we had a Kobe day trip planned. We got a reservation to a fancy Kobe beef restaurant at 14:00, and so we went off to Kobe at around 10:30…
木 May 14, 2026: Japan 16: Nara Park
It was a slow morning. I went through the photos and wrote the diary. We had to go and wash our clothes, so we went to the coin laundry…

Today we went to the Denden Town. It was definitely called after me…

月 May 11, 2026: Japan 13: Rest day
It’s finally time to rest. We finally didn’t have any activities planned at all for today. I pretty much bedrotted for the entire day…
日 May 10, 2026: Japan 12: Rurikoin Temple, Kyoto -> Osaka
Already time to check out from the hotel, huh. So little time in Kyoto, regrettably. Thankfully, hotel staff allowed us to keep our suitcases for a few hours while we visited one more thing before set…
土 May 9, 2026: Japan 11: Kiyomizu, Pontocho alley
We woke up in complete darkness. Our hotel room has a window that just points to the other wall, so there’s pretty much no view. We closed it for the night, which is why this happened…
金 May 8, 2026: Japan 10: Hakone -> Kyoto, Shinkansen
Woke up. Tired. This is a reoccuring theme at this point. I think what I’ll regret the most about this trip is the fact that we didn’t properly plan out the rest days…
木 May 7, 2026: Japan 9: Mt. Kintoki
For some reason I woke up like 6 times during the sleep. No idea why…
水 May 6, 2026: Japan 8: Tokyo -> Hakone
Today we woke up early and started getting ready…
火 May 5, 2026: Japan 7: Hamarikyu Gardens, TV tower, teamLab
