Tyvek

Broke down and made a new wallet today. I made a paper one earlier but wasn't happy with how stiff the paper was (I used a heavy weight paper). After researching some cool features that can be included in a wallet, I made a new one... out of Tyvek.

Its not the first time I've used the material. I used to repair books with the stuff since its basically bullet proof paper (not really buts it pretty indestructible). It features 5 card pockets (1 for an ID, 2 for standard cards, and 2 for keyring cards), and an RF shield to attenuate the potential for spies to nab the personal information stored on RFID enabled cards. It's also got a hidden pocket where I can hide large bills or more cards or whatever.

I'm pretty happy with the result.

Another good thing that happened today: I got my official start date for work: April 13.

The not so good:
Didn't work on any Japanese today =/
