Life level up - lvl 26
So last Saturday was my birthday which I didn't celebrate particularly - guess I'm just that old. ;) The only thing I stick to on my birthday is to eat Sacher cake which is probably one of the most chocolaty chocolate cakes ever invented and I offer a tribute to the late Franz Sacher for his ingenuity. Of course my wife knows my modest perversions and we spent a nice afternoon with my parents eating Sacher cake.
Though I'm not so much into highlighting my birthday I guess it's an opportunity for reflection of the year that has passed. And, of course, to look forward - to the next level. This was a concept presented to me by a quick remark ma
Kamakura deno toumin
So I'm just back from three weeks of well needed vacation in Japan. The title of this journal means "Kamakura hibernation" and it was the theme of my wife's and my trip. Basically three weeks of taking it easy in the ancient capital (1192-1333) of Kamakura south of Tokyo, at the pacific coast. We spent much time visiting the many temples, shrines and gardens of the town and I hope to post some of the nice photos I took in the coming weeks.
Back home I feel filled with new energy for my work where I continue to finish my thesis work in nanotechnology. I also have a new sword which I got just before I left for Japan and I didn't get to try it
Back to the Feature III
Taken from AmrothDin (https://www.deviantart.com/amrothdin)...
1) For each of the 9 first people answering this journal I will put his/her avatar and the three deviations I like from his/her/its gallery on the list.
2) If you answer, you'll have to do the same in your journal, putting me on the first place, completing this way the list with 10 people.The idea of this is not to get a free feature, it is to spread art around for everyone.
And because I stole this from his journal, the first place goes toooo...

New Icon
Finally I got around to do this and, in the end, it didn't take more than half an hour. My new avatar is a stamp I had made with the Japanese (Chinese) characters for my last name which in English means Oakstar. In Japanese it becomes kashiboshi which of course sounds hilarious =)
As I just got married I'm going to change my name to Tojo but I figured it'd be nice to preserve my old name in the icon. This type of stamp is also used for signing important papers, but as I now have a new one I figured it's safe to have it here ;). Admittedly those really used for signing are usually somewhat more intricate in detail and also inverted in colour
