Mina-san, have you met or stalked a celebrity? Did you ask for their autograph?

by the way, I’ve tried and tried and tried to learn how to make a nice, geometrical triangular onigiri and it’s always a total disaster. Those things are hard to make!

Met Steven Tyler while working at Urban Outfitters in Boston. I tried not to make a big thing of it because it had to have gotten a little old, plus I was on the clock.

病院に有名なフランス人の俳優に会ったことがあります。足を骨折したのです。
I was still in med school at the time, and the resident I was working with kept fawning over the actor, asking for pictures, autographs, etc… It was really very embarassing, as the actor was very nice with everything and the resident kept asking and asking… but as a student I couldn’t very well tell him to just stop…
I have some molds at home to make triangular おにぎり,but I’ve never tried. Is it really that difficult ?

I always slate unnecessary 和製英語, but that’s just great

When I went on field trip in elementary school, I was jealous because some of my class mates had triangular おにぎり. My mother always made round ones. As a result, I’m bad at making 三角おにぎり

Hello everyone ..
I heard that there is a lot of flower pollen going around in Japan right now. Is everyone alright with that ?
I would like to ask something.
I noticed that Peter san said とうとう (finally) in the lesson.
What is the different between とうとう and やっと ? Because they both means finally (if im not mistaken 
)
Thanks
