Our HOD is currently holidaying in Japan – around Tokyo as well as the Harajuku, Shibuya and Roppongi districts. Like any other well-wishing peer, I am absolutely flabbergasted with envy and am indignant about being left behind. He did say that he could get something for me there, but after putting much thought into it, I decided to just ask him to take photographs of

Interesting Japanese package designs
People in the subway
Harajuku fashion
High school students
Technologically-advanced public toilets

He had a rather dubious expression on his face as I handed him my list but well! Anyone who goes to Japan when I have tight deadlines can jolly well help bring that bit of happiness back for me!
