Surprisingly Cheap
I went down to the bike shop at the mall to see how much it would cost to have the brakes fixed. The conversation went something like this:
"Excuse me."
"Yes?"
"My rear brake is always about halfway brake... ing..."
"Hm." The bike shop guy pokes at the break, walks inside, grabs a small wrench and screwdriver, makes a couple of adjustments. "Yosh." He proceeds to spin the wheel to demonstrate that it's fixed.
"How much to fix that?"
"No, it's fine."
"Really?"
"Yeah, thanks for coming."
"Thank you very much."
Then I went and bought a donut.
"Excuse me."
"Yes?"
"My rear brake is always about halfway brake... ing..."

Cool.
Japanese donuts? Like the ones at Uwajimaya? Oh! Tasty donuts!
Well, I guess those are pastries...not necessarily donuts...but still.
If by "Japanese donuts", you mean "donuts". I got a chocolate one and a... I don't know what it was, but it was tasty. Some kind of danish, I think.
Hmm...squid donuts?
A great end to any day.
What kind of donut?
Well, the chocolate donut was a little weird, since they used normal chocolate instead of a chocolate frosting. It kind of got everywhere, but I was expecting that and had gone outside.
The other donut was actually more like a red bean and cream danish.
