My cell phones
So a few years ago, I started getting into Japanese cell phones (keitai). I was coming from a Samsung slider phone that was decent, but it wasn't anything exciting..

Review: Turtle Wax Headlight Restoration Kit
Like I said, one of the things I want this blog to be about is my hobbies. One of my big hobbies that I picked up during college was working on my car (2004 Acura RSX Type-S). Not that it's a really crazy car or anything, but I think just having a nicer car made me want to take care of it.
My car is almost 8 years old now, so things are starting to get old. The leather on my steering wheel is showing signs of wear, the pleather on the driver's seat has a 3 inch rip in it, the window moldings are peeling away, etc. One of the things that has really been bothering me is that my headlights have been hazing. I use some Mother's plastic polish or Meguiar's Plastx on them for a temporary fix that only lasts about a week or two before the hazing started coming back.

Dublin Dr. Pepper
I've always liked Dr. Pepper, but ever since I watched Steins;Gate starting this past April I've been drinking it a lot more. If you haven't seen Steins;Gate, go watch it. I won't comment too much about it since I might do some posts on anime, but it's pretty solid.
Anyways, after doing some browsing online, I came across Dublin Dr. Pepper. I kept wondering why Mexican Coke tastes so different from American Coke, and I found out that it's because it's made with cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). There's a pretty big debate about the health risks that HFCS poses, but I believe the US uses a lot of it because the government heavily subsidizes corn. I'm in no position to say if it's good or bad, but I will say that HFCS changes the taste of soda.

First Post: Halloween on Alegria 2011
This is my first post in my yukihiro1412 blog. I'll be posting different places I go to, my different hobbies, and possibly some other random things as I go along. My past blogs have been updates about my life, but this will just be centered around the different things I do, not just what I'm up to. I think that makes sense?
