Japanese technology....di-fi-ca-ru-to!

Aiko went on a bus tour and the bus driver couldn't remember any of the Japanese names. So, he decided to give them all nicknames...names from Japanese companies! One girl was Sony, another was Panasonic. When things got too complicated, they were grouped together as "Team Japan"! (GAMBATTE!)

Aiko was lucky enough to get a nickname similar to her own name - AIBO. She also looks like Aibo...walks like Aibo... smells like Aibo...but NOT as smart as Aibo unfortunately.

(This is Aibo)








This is Aiko. Don't they look the same?!?!?!

My nickname could be Nike, Gap, or Levis because all their clothes are "Made in China" just like me!


Aiko could also be called kara age (Japanese fried chicken, NOT KFC). People sometimes call her kara age-sama by accident.














My name in Japan was Edamame So. Students called me Edamame-sensei during class. For mo information about edamame, please visit http://www.edamame.com/)







Sorry, we have to turn off the computer now. We are hungry looking at these pictures. We're going to make some edamame and watch a DVD. Bye Bye.
