Making Onigiri, Third Attempt

In this new blog post, it's my third write-up of my onigiri making. Unlike my last two posts where I used my hands to mould the onigiri, this time I used a sheet of cling wrap to mould it, as it was much cleaner and it doesn't make my hands sticky.

Pasar Malam Diary, 11th February 2017

On this day's write-up of Pasar Malam Diary, I decided to go shopping there along with my elder sister for the second time. I arrived there at 5:55 p.m. and began looking for what to buy on that day.

Making Onigiri, Second Attempt

Yesterday was the first time I've made onigiri, but it was far from perfect. So today was my second attempt in making onigiri, and this time, I can say that I have succeeded in making onigiri correctly.

Making Onigiri, First Attempt

As I am highly fascinated with anything Japan since childhood (where I'm DYING to go to), I've always wanted to try some Japanese food. Interestingly enough, Japanese food is actually easy to find here in Malaysia, such as the Takoyaki, Teriyaki, Sushi, and Onigiri.

And speaking of onigiri, I have seen them sold in AEON supermarkets and recently, at Family Mart in Mid Valley Megamall. I have tried eating one, but never made one myself. And so, in this new blog post, I am writing about my first attempt in making a Tuna Mayo Onigiri.

Pasar Malam Diary, 7th February 2017

On this second Pasar Malam Diary write-up, I went to the pasar malam along with my mother to buy some dinner. On this day, both of us walked to the pasar malam instead of riding a car.

DIY Project: Tin Can Dashboard Camera Mount

As I loved driving, I would often think of recording a video of my driving. It all started in 2010 after I watched videos in the YouTube channel 'takashisupreme' (Touge-G Official), where it shows video footages of drivers taking part in Touge driving at Genting Highlands.

Back then, I would use my old Sakure TR-32 tripod to mount a camera for the recording and fixed the tripod at the back seat of my car for it. By doing this, I managed to record a backseat passenger's view of my driving. Unfortunately, it was difficult to attach and remove the tripod, and it was also quite risky.

Then there's the 'Dash Cam', which is essentially a camera mounted at a car's dashboard. However, since I have owned a camera good enough to record quality videos, I only need to either buy a camera mount or make my own.

And so, yesterday, I finally discovered a way to make a car dashboard camera mount from old and unused items, and it also works just fine.

Pasar Malam Diary, 4th February 2017

It has been years since I have frequented a Pasar Malam (night market) near my location. In fact, today's pasar malam visit is the first ever written here, and I have decided to call it a Pasar Malam Diary. I went there along with my elder sister and arrived at 5:45 p.m., but we soon parted ways to buy what we planned.

At Mid Valley Megamall, 21/01/2017

It has been almost two years since I last went to Mid Valley Megamall, one of my favourite shopping complexes. My last visit in early February 2015 was to collect a 1/8 scale Sen-ti-nel BRAVE-ACT Armin Arlert figure which I ordered at XL-Shop months before that.

And so, yesterday, after being invited by my eldest sister, my mother and I went there for some lunch and shopping for a birthday present for one of my family members. Two years have passed since my last visit, and I noticed a number of changes at Mid Valley Megamall.

HONEST REMINDER (UPDATED: 22/03/2018)

I don't have any accounts on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or whatever available social media sites except Google-based accounts such as YouTube and Google+, and I am only active here on my blog, Zerochan and Minitokyo. Thank You.

JOHOYO JY-22 Tripod Review (Modified & Updated: 13/01/2017)

(This article, originally published on 12/01/2017 at 7:00 a.m, has been modified and updated after another testing at 9:00 p.m.)

One of the camera accessories that can be described as a 'must-have' is the tripod. I love taking the best photos possible, but I highly dislike blurry photos. Although modern digital cameras have anti-shake feature (example: Sony's SteadyShot), there are times when the photo appears blurry, even with the anti-shake feature switched on, due to shaky hands. In fact, I have to admit, my hands tend to tremble whenever I took photos, making some of my photos appear blurry when viewed in full resolution.

And so, in this new blog post, I am making a review of the Johoyo JY-22 Tripod.
