Oh, Seiko!
Sunday, February 21st, 2010If you happened to have cable and watched Ellen Nishiumi (way back when), chances are you’d probably understand what the (bad) pun title is all about. As someone who is interested in the Japanese culture (of course anime is just one of the things that endeared Japan to me), I have followed all those Japanese documentaries on Channel 13 relentlessly and even watched Ellen Nishiumi’s show. Romanticized my view on Japan is, I still want to go there just to see the cherry trees bloom.
Seiko’s Diary is, well, Ellen Nishiumi on blog form. Of course, this is not to say that Seiko san looks like Miss Nishiumi - but rather the fact that her blog is very colorful and shows us aspects of daily Japanese life in little snippets and what have you, just like that Oh Tokyo! show. Daily life of being a wife and mom in Japan is a plus, moreso because we have rarely heard from moms from Japan doing so. Most of the stuff I know about being Pinay moms in Japan come from browsing through obentou sites. Cooking and presenting food the aesthetic Japanese way is one thing, and being just a simple woman who loves life and her husband and children is another.This is simply one of Seiko’s Diary’s big pluses, informative and filled with love and laughter a mom could only give, all the way staight from Japan.
I wonder if I could get that awesome Japan dream someday.
