Japan Pics Prt 2: Food and Drink

Welcome back folks. Today is part two of my Japan trip. This time we are going to cover food and drink. Lots of delicious foods and drinks that I came upon in Fukuoka, Japan. Let's get this thang started eh? We'll start with the drinks.
Healthya is actually a gross drink, but when it comes to hydrating your body it really works.
Super Cool was a refreshing drink. Not my favorite. It had a little 'ting' to the taste.
Aquarius is my most favorite hydrating beverage by far. The taste is just phenomenal. I wish they had this drink here in the states. I'm craving for it right now!
I believe this is called Gallon Fighter 3000. Similar to the 5hour energy drink. This bad boy packs a kick and doesn't make you drowsy.
Soniq is sports drink. Like most drinks it has a lemon like flavor.
This is my second favorite drink in Japan. Pocari Sweat gives my body perfect hydration. The weather was hot and humid so this drink came in handy to keep me hydrated.
Dakara is a healthy drink. This one was sweet and a little tangy like lemon.
My fiance's mom did some cooking for me while I was there. She's a damn good cook.
If you're in Japan and never experienced the restaurant Joyful. You are missing out buddy. Joyful mainly bases their food around hamburger.

This little dessert you can make at home. It's shaved ice with strawberry flavor topped with condensed milk. Oishii oishii!!!
Another meal from my fiance's Mom. Curry curry!
Okonomiyaki. One of my most favorite foods.
Yet another meal put together by my fiance's mom.
At this particular noodle joint there was this guy sitting next to my fiance's dad and I. He was smoking and reading a sex magazine. I thought that was kind of odd especially in a family oriented place. Then again, I'm just a gaijin here so what do I know eh?
While we were at Tenjin we stopped by this all you can eat Italian restaurant. I forgot the name. I have to get back to y'all on this one.
A rice bowl from Yoshinoya. Oishii oishii!
This was at Donkatsu. I had the variety katsu plate. The katsu to the upper right was oishii. It was filled with cheese in the middle. Ahhhh, makes my mouth water. I'm hungry now...
This omelet was too good! It was a rice and cheese omelet with curry sauce.
Lastly, is dessert. A brownie with vanilla ice cream. Oishikatta desu!

Well I hope you all enjoyed this fun food filled adventure. Going through these pics is just making me hungry. I miss Japan already...

Next up is the last installment to this picture parade. We will cover random pics and other interesting stuff. Alright to end this post here's a cool vid from

Kiotsuketene! See y'all next post. Peace

Japan Pics prt 1: Landscapes

Sorry for the delay. This is going to be a 3 part post. This one will cover more landscapes and other random images. Too many pictures man. I want to put them all, but that's impossible right now. 

First off, my trip to Japan was out of this world. I stayed there for a good three weeks from June 18-July8. I got to interact with the Japanese people. Did some shopping. Saw a lot of cuties at Tenjin. I ate a ton of delicious foods. Saw the most beautiful landscapes. Did I mention, I'm engaged? That's right. Your boy, Bentobeatboxer is engaged. June 23rd was the day I proposed. Pietro's at Canal City Tenjin was the restaurant where it all happened. Definitely a happy time for me and my fiance. Its going to be a struggle dealing with immigration and filing papers. Not to mention all the fees I'll be paying. It's all good. I'll just be happy when my fiance finally arrives. Wedding details will be posted as soon as we get started on planning. First things first-Get my fiance to the USA!

Alright let's get to the pics!


On the airplane. Got a nice plane shot of Nagoya. 
Airplane view of Mt. Fuji. Simply beautiful.
Landed in Nagoya. Headed to Fukuoka.
Another view of Tenjin.

Canal City again.


There was a parade at Canal City, but this all happened when I left. Sucks arse...
I don't know what these things are, but for some reason the landscape reminded me of a scene in Ultraman.
My fiance's dad took the scenic route to the airport. Nice mountainous landscapes!
Some temple. Didn't get a chance to visit. Cute looking girls though.

A single mans paradise. 80% women. 20%men. Tenjin core supplies the most awesome Japanese babes. The reason. Tenjin Core is predominantly girls fashion boutiques. Every store had chicks in short shorts. They would make any foreigner go wild. 
I forgot what mall this was, but they had a car dealer on the 12th floor. How they got the cars in there? wakaranai. Anyways, this Mitsubishi car is off the chain!  Let's hope that this car hits the states. 
The cutest and greatest dog in the world!


Ah, here's the rock that I gave to my fiance! That thang sparkles! Talk about bling bling son!

Well, that's it for today. Next post will cover food and drink. Take care everyone. Peace.

Minna san Konnichiwa! Tomorrow I head out for Japan. I'll be in Fukuoka for a good three weeks to spend with my girlfriend. I miss her so much. It's been a year and half since we last seen each other. It's going to be an interesting vacation this time around. We're going to hit the clubs, theme parks, and eat at plenty of restaurants. I can't wait. I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. It's going to be great being there. I might not be able to post the next couple of weeks. I'll try my best to. When I come back I'll make sure to put up some pics.

Happy Birthday BBB!!!

I kinda missed it by two days, but HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my blog! It's been a year since I put BBB up. This blog was my getaway from school work, classes, and stress. We've gone through some interesting journey's and I hope that we can continue to go on more journey's in near future. To all my readers....(eerrr their's probably just one or two that read my blog? maybe? haha! its all good) thank you for reading and I hope you will continue to read this blog. 

Now, what's the future for BBB? Well, I think its time to get the BBB name out there. I haven't really been promoting my blog because I never had time to. With this temporary new found time I will be doing my best to get BBB off its feet and find more readers. I'm not expecting a lot from this blog because it really is just for fun. As long as I can help people on their way to finding their new found love for Japanese, Korean, and French music then I've done my job. 

To celebrate the BBB's Bday here's a sneak preview of Bright's new single 手紙feat.K / One Summer Time. Click the button below to hear a preview from their upcoming single. It's about time these girls came out with something new! Everyone enjoy!

Click Here for Sneak Preview


Whatcha think? Sounds good eh? Keep in mind these girls are still young so they still have a lot more room to improve, but for what talent they have already they definitely can go very far. Good luck girls! And here's a cool vid from L-Vokal featuring the mighty Kreva in Step Up!

 Alright everyone, enjoy and stay Bright!

Readying Myself for Japan

As time nears for my trip to Japan, I gather the necessary educational essentials:
I'll probably watch some "Let's Learn Japanese Basic" with Yan san. It's going to be another crash course my fellow bloggers. It's alright though. I just got to keep studying.  I got a week and a half to study. Nihongo ha benkyo gambarimasu!

Well, this weekend was pretty cool. My friend and I went to the city of San Francisco. We checked out Japan town, Sony Metreon, and the Fiesta Filipina event over on Post Street. Here's a couple of pics from that day.
Here's my good friend 'P.' I knew this guy since middle school. Never new he was the last 1/2black 1/2half filipino samurai.

Building shot off Geary and the Fillmore
Walking down Market St. 
We arrive at Fiesta Filipina!
Here's a shirt 'P' bought. I thought it was pretty fresh.
This filipina auntie is reppin' Fricso like its nuthin'. 

Across the street from the Metreon

This day was a little crazy. We parked hella far from Post Street. We must've walked 6-8 blocks before reaching our destination. We were lost for a bit. We ending up near the slums. There was a bunch of ghetto ass folks walking the street. My boy and I kept our guard up and walked a little faster. haha! By the days end, my legs and feet were sore. I got a heat rash on my left arm and my got sunburned. Damn, what aaaaaa day.

To end this post here's a video I found this morning. It's the Acoustic version of Perfume's song 'Macaroni.' I don't know who is playing the guitar, but I have to give props to whoever did. This song sounds so refreshing when played acoustically. I amazed. I only wish we can here Perfume sing over this track. That would be kakko ii desu!

Perfume-Macaroni(Acoustic Version)

Take care everyone. Goodnight.

Graduation. Just rambling in spurts

Well, its official. I've graduated from Sacramento State. I have to say it feels good. No classes. No more sleepless nights. Life is going to be good. Oh, here's a picture of my classmates and I during the Sacramento State's Department of Design Show.We've gone through so much together. I'm gonna miss them so much. I promised to keep in touch with all of them. I wish the best for everyone here. I hope that we all find our own individual successes in life to keep us happy and sane.

This weekend was crazy. Party after party after party. Too much Grey Goose, patron, and vodka in my system. Surprisingly, I wasn't that drunk. Maybe I was. Anyways, enough about drinking. I've finally got a chance to catch up with some old friends. I had a little graduation party on Saturday. Here's a pic from my graduation party with some of my good friends .I love these guys and gals to def. Props out to my boy Ben who couldn't make it. He's up in New York doing his thang.

A lot of people have been asking me, "yo B! now that you've graduated, what's next for you?" Well, vacation first of all. As most of you already know I'll be in Japan for three weeks. During my time there I'll be proposing to my girl. I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I'll make sure I do it in a creative way. I already bought my girlfriends ring this weekend. I'll reveal the picture after I propose to her. I'll keep y'all updated on that. After that, its time for a job change. I'll be looking for a graphic design job when I come back.

Its going to an exciting ride y'all. I'm finally becoming an adult and becoming more responsible as a person. I never thought I could make it this far in life. I think without such great friends, family, and my girl, I would be sitting on my ass not having a clue about life. I want to make everybody proud so I'll be doing my best and giving it my all for everyone. Especially for my future wife. Like I said, I'll definitely keep you posted on what's going on with the BentoBeatboxer. Moving on...

For the past couple days I've been playing this song from the korean girl group SNSD (Girls Generation). The song is called "Kissing You." I'm addicted to this song yo! I played this song so many times and I just can't get enough of it. The girls here are so cute and so talented vocally and mentally. Check out their video "Kissing You."

SNSD(Girls Generation)-Kissing You


So far I gots the hots for Jessica, SeoYoung, Yoona, and Yuri. SOOOOO CUTE!!! If you like what you see, visit their official website here
Click on pic to go to Girls Generation's official web page.

Alright everyone. I'll be having a little more time on my hands so expect more postings on what's good in Japanese, Korean, and French Music. Take care and stay blessed!

No more classes! Motivation.

Woo I'm officially done with classes! I was going to enter this entry yesterday, but after I got home around 800pm I fell asleep. Woke up. Saw the time. Next thing I knew, It was 430am! Man, I must've been exhausted. Well, I haven't slept in the past two days. Not healthy at all, but it was worth it. A good friend of mine who was in the design program dropped the program not to long ago. He put his health on the line for this program that eventually led to his breakdown. I didn't even know he was going through a lot pressure and stress. He didn't really say anything. I only wish I could've caught him sooner to help him out. Graphic Design is a fuckin' hard ass field when it comes to concept, creation, and implementation to final the application. I don't think many people realize that. Anyways, no matter what your major is, remember that your health is important. Don't forget that. Remember to have people around to motivate you too. The only thing keeping me alive in this program was my girlfriend. I thought about her every time I felt like giving up. I didn't want to let her down because that's where my hearts and future is at. What I'm saying is find your motivation to keep going.

Here's a classic song that I grew up with that also motivated me. I hope this will inspire you and motivate you all to do something special in your lives. Check it

Willy Wonka-Pure Imagination



This is me playing the same song...umm...enjoy?




Alright everyone. I have two more things to do with school. 1. Design show. 2. Graduation. I'll report back after to let you know whats up. take care everyone. peace.

Two More Days and counting

My fellow bloggers. This is my last week of college. My last official day is this Tuesday. After that, I graduate Friday. I'm holding my breath. I'm almost there. I can finally reenter the public and have an actual life again. I'm looking forward to going out again. What I really want to do is hang out with my friends. I haven't seen them in so long. The Graphic Design program really takes its toll on your social life that you don't have time to hang out. I also want to hang out with my brother and hit the music studio up. I haven't done that in a while. I'm looking forward to hitting it up. I"m also looking forward to working out. Damn, I got fat. I'm going to lose some weight. At least before I go to Japan. I want to make sure I beeez sexy yo! Jk. 

Well, I leave it at that. I have a meeting in a couple of minutes. I'll report back after. Meanwhile, here's a cool vid from
