A student post: the ICE BOX
A great Japanese invention is the ICE BOX which is, in simple words “frozen juice”. Summer in Japan is super hot and humid and even just sitting around makes you tired. In a couple of months summer will be here and the only thing I can think of that can save me is the ice box. Ice box is great because it’s cheap, tasty, and easy to carry around.
I think that ice box will be really good because you can buy it with just one 100 yen coin. Back in New Zealand it would be like a one dollar ice cream, which you cannot find very often. When its forty degrees outside, the best thing to have is a nice cold icy drink with a fruity taste. Ice box is exactly that. This summer after every training I am really looking forward to walking home with friends while I'm holding an ice box in my left hand that is just waiting to be poured into my mouth.
Another good thing about it is the container that it is in. it fits perfectly into your palm and it is small enough to carry it around everywhere. Ice box is going to be the one thing that will help me survive this summer. Starting today I'm going to start saving money so I can buy one every day!
