kei cars are pretty much ridiculously small Japanese cars with ridiculously small engines (smaller then some motorcycle engines). but theyre super cool to see on the road now that importing cars is gaining popularity. my cousin owns two kei cars and its like seeing a unicorn everytime, definitely pretty unreal looking next to the average car. the difference in car culture is definitely a super cool thing to look around in

I’ve never been into cars. my gf has always loved them & it’s her special interest. recently we’ve been able to bond over it a lot more bc she helped me get my first car, a nissan juke, which led me down a rabbit hole of unique car design.
I’ve been really fascinated by the designer of my car, shiro nakamura. he’s designed such divisive classics like the nissan cube, the juke, & the leaf, among others.
He believes cars are “members of the family” & should each have a unique character. he talks about how form should follow feeling, not just function. how cars must be diverse to represent the diverse lifestyles of customers.
I have to use a translation app to get thru it but it’s been a really fascinating read so far, learning about the different values & emotions that go into vehicle design. cars are art, I’m realizing.

I discovered hi-chew candy probably about 3 years ago which may be a little late, regardless they are a 10/10 candy. They have a bunch of different flavor packs so it never gets boring but I recommend the pack that has green apple, grape, and strawberry. Definitely on the pricey side but they're so good you almost forget you just dropped 5 bucks on a small candy bag.

my cousin recently just got a pair of heelys and i know that sounds a little wild for 2024 but im telling you for like 50 dollars these things are so fun. I spent like two hours of my life going back and forth in a parking garage and i would definitely do it again. go buy yourself, your parents, your grandparents, anyone...a pair of heelys today. (they were only 38 bucks td cause of cyber Monday so save the date for next year)

I just watched Moana 2 with some friends over Thanksgiving break in this super cool theatre my mom found. It was cheaper than AMC by far—it was only $9 a ticket. The seats weren't as comfy, but you're going more for the experience than the quality of the seats. The popcorn was bomb, and the sound and movie quality were great. I definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the area. It was cool to see a new movie in a really old theatre.
