旅行: June 2008

i feel like I didnt buy anything but have accumulated a lot... some are papers from classes, magazines, and clothes. Packing is such a pain. i have packed and repacked for like the fourth time each time lessening my carryload. However, I am a packrat and call on things to have sentimental value. I need to stop this...

I have been very good at throwing things away now and have lessen my load by a lot. I feel like after studying abroad or going to a place other than home and then coming home. you realize how much you have actually accumulated during that time.

simple is bliss however I always want to acquire things. I feel my money control and food control has been ruined by coming here. you would think its the opposite for food since most ppl probabally expect me to go back all skinny since the food is expensive.

I feel like I have destroyed all the expectations/stereotypes of ppl studying in japan

1) you are fluent in the language NO
2) you will lose weight and be all skinny like them NO ( quite the opposite)
3) you will get a japanese boyfriend NOPE
4) you will become girlier?? NOPE
5) you will be good at cooking ?? NOPE im good at making food that comes in mixes hehe
6) you will be good at making sushi ( haha havent made sushi once here )

my room is a complete mess.... packing kills.

my goal once i go back and move into the apt..

have the least minimum to live with... use the money I save for after I graduate.

Today was a really fun day. thanks to leeyeon.

so we had tickets to the chanel mobile art exhibition and got there a little early and decided to kill time by walking around. all of a sudden we saw these two birds humping and laughed at them. all of a sudden the pigeons came towards us flapping their wings like right on top of us and we screamed. (note: leeyeon is afraid of birds because of traumatic reasons)

so after that we waited to get into the exhibition.. soo cool

everyone who entered had a mp3 player to use while going through the exhibition. it tells u when to leave one artwork and move to the next. like it talks about the artwork in like a story/dialogue way.

so we walked around and i bought some gifts for ppl. i had to keep in mind to get something small because of spacewise in my suitcase. even though i keep throwing things away i cant seem to pack everything...

i found the greatest bento box for me to bring to school once i go home.. wait and see.

i am in search of these really cool pants called balloon pants.

so me and leeyeon decided to get tickets to this radio station with these famous ppl i guess. i didnt know about them until i was informed by leeyeon. so we waited with these other girls for tickets. the girls are so crazy about them that we saw these girls like dancing to their music.( you have to get tickets at 3 to see the show at 7pm. ( i noticed u cant even watch the whole thing so u can only watch for like 10 mins of the 1 hr show) my friend has met one of the guys at a club so didnt want to be seen so i was blocking her for her.

so i will tell u a lil about pure boys that i know. most of them are actors but become singers too because its easier to promote themselves in a group...

so i called them fire boys accidently so i keep making fun of them as fire boys. i was probably the most unexcited in the line of girls waiting to see them since i didnt know about them much until today.and guess what!!!! i became the lucky girl by random.. yaya.. i had to fake happy excited look to make the girls feel like it wasnt such a waste that i got the lucky girl number..

i was scared not because i would see them more like if i was to talk to them... i cant since my japanese sucks and i know absolutely nothing about them...

so i decided why not just do it since im only here for a lil bit more...
so i was guided into the studio near the end of the show and waited in this itty bitty room. after that i went on air with the pure boys ppl... so me being the stupid gaijin not knowing what they were really saying i made a fool out of myself.

so they asked how long i waited for the ticket i was like about 30 mins before they passed the ticket.. i think that hurt their ego since like im sure a lot of girls wait a lot longer than that. and then they asked me to tap the guy i came to see/ i like but i was soo clueless cuz i didnt hear them explain so i was like why the heck are they like putting their heads down and sleeping. so me being stupid i just stared at the audience and like copied them ...haha dumb me.they had to explain it again and then i tapped this guys shoulder..http://ameblo.jp/minami-keisuke/

and i got a picture with them too ... yaya

the one in the girl who is holding the green blob is the one i touched...

p.s. i thought two of the staff guys were better looking than some of the pure boys... the one who guided me in was really cute..
