FYE: I love Japanese commercials!

Mameshiba まめしば！

ね、知ってる？ [Hey, do you know?]
Mameshiba are the cutest [most obnoxious] little beans on the planet.
If you don't know much about it, I'd suggest checking out the commercials on Youtube. These cute, Japanese invented, bean characters [ chili, soy, peanuts, etc ] spill out random, sometimes disturbing, trivia - but don't worry, you'll only get one a day.

To continue with the music accessories theme I have going on here lately, I figured I'd share a way for you to Mameshiba-pimp-out your mp3 ( ^ o^)/

Fortunately [or unfortunately] my mp3 is still up and running, but if that bad boy ever decides to stop taking the charge I'll be investing in an iPod. As a Mac user it would make my life a little easier.

But not to worry non-iPod users (are there still any of you out there?) you can always rock Mameshiba on the go with their tenoli headphones ~

Although I'm currently shopping around for a pair of the DJ-looking-headband headphones, it's always good to have a trusty (tenoli) set of earbuds, especially for flying.

I'm personally excited for payday this Friday because I'd like to treat myself to some Mameshiba things! ~

On a slightly related note, as a Gilman Scholarship Recipient I have to carry out the project I proposed during the selection process. The project I came up with, consists of holding an hour long open session where I get to talk to students interested in studying abroad about overcoming culture shock and cultural differences, focusing mostly on the Hispanic community, since I felt there was a lot I could relate to.
Although my presentation is still in the works, I'm pretty certain I'll be using this Mameshiba video in my presentation! ( ^ w ^.)

Hope you all had a great weekend!
Happy Passover & Easter! ~ Feliz dia de la pascua.

Because I know that YET AGAIN I won't have the time to write the post I've been waiting to write for you guys, I'm going to make this a short and entertaining post.

BTW my friend Tigresaa and I will posting about the superbowl ads on our blog, AdvertisingNovice and we'll be tweeting throughout the game on @AdNovice

I attended a Zumba class today that was a lot of fun but really intense. Anyways, that reminded me of this video a friend of mine showed me a while back (freshman year, I think. BTW, I'm a senior!) and I figured I could share it with you guys! :)
