Hi there! I’m Janet.
I’ve probably come full circle with this latest WordPress blog having began with WP a long time ago and migrated to various platforms. And I know there’s a whole trail of slime I’ve left on the internet due to this, but no matter. Any time is as good as any for a fresh start.
I like fresh starts. (Though if you’d like to read my previous entries, you can head over here.)
Most people wouldn’t read paragraphs of info about me, so I’m going to make a list of stuff I do, in the hopes that it’ll satisfy some of your curiosity.
- educator by trade
- keen interest in Japan, its culture and precious precious people
- musician (keyboards and bass)
- photographer when the mood strikes me (Lumix GF2)
- on occasion, graphic designer
- tech geek (lately no time to browse)
- MACaddict (thanks for brainwashing me, Steve)
- We Farm-er
- rabid Twitterer when I’m bored
- lover of Japanese food, any time or place (except chains of subpar quality eg. Sakae Sushi)
- sleep at the drop of a hat (5 mins I’m told)
- not squeamish
- and MOST IMPORTANTLY, worship Jesus (only He satisfies!)
Maybe you’d also like to know some of my favourite things.

Whatever else there is to know about me can be garnered from my posts. By the time I get enough readership to read this page, there should be plenty of posts around. Haha.
