heee?!

I have risen from the doom of having caught a full blown cold! All I needed was to die for a day and a half. Not bad. But as I write this, I still have some symptoms, sore throat, ear pain and no willing to do anything. Some would say I'm a zombie, I can live with that. All I need for dinner is brain. Shouldn't be too hard to find?

I have a few more things about Japan that annoy me.. I find new things every now and then. Things that didn't bother me before have started to bother me a bit. Let's have a look;

1. The mumbling bus drivers. What the effing hell are they mumbling about? I have no idea!I even bet they have no idea! Mumble mumble mumbleeee... 

2. The curbs. The curbs are so high!! My stuff jumps from the basket everytime I hit one of those!! don't like it!

3. The bloody hell screaming birds outside my window! What is up with them?!? They constantly scream at each other... And I know I'm not the only one going mad!!!!!

Otherwise, everything is good, The weather today has been quite good, 19...huh, where is the little degrees button?! huhh oh well. Nineteendegreescelcius. Not bad for December 1st!! 

Enough chit chat! I'm off  to make din din! Wanna see the menu!? Yes!

Avocado, lime, salt and pepper lightly mixed
big shrimps cooked with garlic and lime
Salad 
Served with a 500 ml bottle of the finest sparkling water Japan has to offer. Bon appetit!

P.S today is the hug an Icelander day...I like that! today is also hug a swimmer day...I turn out to be both!!! DOUBLE HUGS!!! YAY

Hello my pretties!!

What up!??
Let's continue our journey shall we!

So Saturday after the awesome Thanksgiving meal was quiet and slow, caught up readings and started reviewing for Japanese tests we have this week. After dinner Ashley made home made fudge that was a big hit for the chocoholics that are all over this place!!! After that bunch of people decided to go to Tom's room and drink and chat. It ended up being the most awesome rave ever! With lights switched on and off by the lightmasters, everyone danced in the tiny room. Some genius thought of trying to download a strobe light app for iPhone and then it was fully on! Best Goth club night ever.

Sunday was lazy as well did some readings and Japanese and then a few of us headed out for dinner at Hard Rock Café! mmm There we ate way to much and almost couldn't move. Best burgers ever! A couple of us also got mojito's and Jo got a bit buzzed after a few sips, which was of course hilarious. For her defense the alcohol content was a bit higher than usually in Japan... :)

Monday was also study day...believe it or not! Japanese tests coming up. Very uneventful day of studying. I took a break and went to the mall to get something to nibble on, and chose the worst thing ever. I bought a "chili dog" from Tully's...never ever do that mistake!!! it was totally and utterly horrible!! yukk! By 6 I started to feel a bit under the weather but managed to drag myself to Kyle J's room to make some travel plans around 10. There we decided to skip Kuala Lumpur and just do Hong Kong, Bangkok, Vietnam and Cambodia. We bought very cheap planetickets from Bangkok to Vietnam and were very happy about that. After that I went back and shivered in my bed until I finally fell a sleep at 5 am, just to wake up at 7.30 to do the oral part of the Japanese test...yay. Feeling like crap I went home again and fell asleep from 12-3.30. Still felt like shit so decided to skip Gender class and go to Jusco for some cold medicine. Then went home again and slept from 6.30-11pm. Then I had to wake up to do some more Japanese...which I should be doing now... heh!!

hope you didn't die of boredom... if not you are able to see some random photos!!! YAY!!!

Free time, Thanksgiving and Japan..

Okay more update, I have to try to catch up!!

So, Last week was filled up with school. I'm lying, it wasn't, we only had 3 days of school instead of the 4 days. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday was the Kyudai School festival, held on Ito Campus. I was lazy and did not go :( Monday is always off and then Tuesday was a national Holiday, so no school then!

Did I do anything productive? Must kind of say neeeeryeah. I did go around Fukuoka and Tenjin with Charlotte and Ashley, since a lot of people decided to go somewhere else. Tokyo, Osaka, Korea... 
I had a lot of fun in good ol' Fukuoka. I saw Kashii Shrine and nice shops, tried to plan the awesome trip and had some small amounts of alcohol. Oh almost forgot! also went to a Neko Café! that was the cutest thing ever! Made me not miss my cat as much! So this is how it works: You go in and play with cats! They are everywhere! walking around your table, sitting in empty chairs at your table and playing with your toes! Cat toys are provided so you can jump around with the cats... Yay! For only 100 yen you can feed the cats some chicken, and boy do they like it!!! They are all over you trying to snatch some chickywicky!

Enough on that. Thursday was Thanksgiving, not that I really cared, but we decided that it would be awesome to have a Thanksgiving meal. The notice was too short, so we moved Thanksgiving to Friday. A lot of people decided to join, so it was kind of a pot luck party! We had rice, Korean noodles, pumpkin soup, corn bread made by me and Ayana in a RICECOOKER!, naan bread, beef, mac and cheese, chicken, pancakes and sweet potato pie with marshmallows on top! I had great time with great people for my very first thanksgiving!
After dinner, we were so full so we watched the weirdest movie ever... it was a anime called Mind Games and oh my cod, how wonderfully strange it was. I dare ya to watch it! Well we kind of couldn't finish it, because we were so tired after the feast!

Erm, I have found a couple of more things that annoy me about Japan:

1. everything is so goddamn sweet!! The bread, the food, the everything!
2. The bread! There are no words! sweet, white and so soft... Now I have to travel all the way to Tenjin to get real bread!
3. Sidewalks! everyone bikes... still the curbs are so high that you get a concussion when you hit them, and you fall off the bike if you are going to slow.

So, it seems that I caught up! Amazing!

One more thing here, I was having lunch with my tutor yesterday and we were talking about Christmas, so I was explaining that in Iceland we had not only one Santa, but 13!! And that they all had names which described them... I found out while explaining that they are in fact very creepy...slamming doors, peeping through windows and eating your leftovers! Not forgetting the one that steal sheep and can't bend his legs... 

Enough nonsense!

So...

A little update!! (late as usual, I know)

So, lately I have just been in school and wandering around Tenjin as usual and it's save to say that Christmas is here!! 
November 1st it all started! Straight after Halloween it's Christmastime in Japan!! Everything is very festive, and they really really like their Christmas lights!!! And in colors I'm not all that used to like blue and pink...those are not Christmas lights in my book!! But Christmas songs are blasted all over the place in a very ...new? way. I find this time of year a wee bit strange here, I found out that I miss the cold and wind and icy streets with people hurrying inside shops to get warm! Here we still have green leaves on the trees and around 14 degrees! That is one thing that does not add up!! But hey, a new experience!


Now for some updates!
On Sunday almost two weeks ago, I decided to get on my bike and get lost around the Kashiihama Kaikan area, which is the one I live in. The weather was bright and sunny as I set out for my adventures. I biked around until I found a very pretty park that had a pond in the middle. After I while I saw a greenhouse which people were going into, so I decided to follow! When I came in I was asked for a 100 yen, so I payed without really knowing what I was paying for. Inside was very hot and humid so I figured out that they must have something cool there (no pun intended). As I past the plastic doors a lot of very pretty plants greeted me, along with big, white beautiful butterflies!!! They flew all over me and because I was wearing a bright red sweater they really liked me, so they sat on my shoulders and back if I stayed still for a while. Quite amazing to find this while getting lost!! Thank god I had my trusty camera! 
After getting rid of the butterflies of my sweater I ate ice cream sold at... ICELAND..har har har! On I went and decided to look closer at the beach, and check how far it reached, which ended up being almost hit by a car too often to count since the streets got really narrow the further I went on. I found a very peaceful place at the beach and started walking around. It was a bit too peaceful cause I didn't notice when the flood came... So some parts of the beach had gone on a holiday when I realized that my bike was a bit far away, so I needed to wade almost up to my knees to get back. FUN FUN FUN!



















(facebook for more photos)



Well...so the week went it's way with the normal stuff, cooking in the non firealarmed kitchen and eating... 
Oh and yes, I won't be spending Christmas in Japan after all! Kyle, Amer,  Hristina and I, bought us some tickets to the land of Thai! Yes ladies and gentlemen, meine damen und herren, Dömur mínar og H(n)errar!! The city of Bangkok awaits me! Well to be honest, not only the city of Bangkok, because as we ( or I..) speak we are also planning to go to Malaysia and Cambodia and even if there is time and visa, to Vietnam! Oh yes...and Hong Kong! Our flight is from Fukuoka to Hong Kong, wait there for a day, Bangkok, then the same on the way back, which gives us new years eve in Hong Kong!  Amazing in the house!

This should be enough for today, I'll give some updates tomorrow!
Tata!

Say what now!!!?!?!?!?

Have I ever mentioned how strange and weird Japan is? Not a day passes without me finding something amazingly strange. A trip to the supermarket, trip to the drugstore or just a stroll down the street?? Let's take a look shall we?!



Start this awesome diet to get Jesus Body! I want it, do you!?



















Who says Barbie is only beach blond and pale skinned?! Now she is  Black Label and beautiful!























We took a small train to the beach one day. It took us straight to hell...























This lovely thing was casually hanging out with the Christmas stuff. Apparently it goes in your butt. Also available in green and clear.























Well, We all know Christmas is right around the corner (well...almost) Of course the Japanese have a lot of Christmas(??) stuff... for example:


The kids are not the only ones that get something good for Christmas... This Special mErry X'mas! anyone knows what that spells?!?! Strictly for 18 and over!




















this lovely, yet slightly creepy Santa mask, worn by Heleen, is both comfy and Christmas-y!!!
























And then for some cute and fun stuff, just so you wont get nightmares:



 Reindeer hats! warm and cute! two great types worn by Charlotte and me







 Santa's hat taken to far! Very cut and will most likely be mine some day!
Santa needed glasses so I lent him mine!

























...and just for your pleasure; my new pretty new Reindeer Pj's!:

















So soooft!


Well, I better run,  I'll end this with one autumn picture from a 700 year old Zen garden in Daizaifu...for your pleasure! tata for now

Jpo homies!

what up!?!
This is my attempt to blog regularly, so this blog is going to be very boring (deal with it)

Yesterday was very cold, well not - cold, but cold...compared to the nice sun and warmth we have been having last month. And it was quite windy. Nothing compared to home though, but I was cold. Then I made homemade hamburgers for the first time (by myself!) Then we had a little teatime in the kitchen. Everyone ended up high from sugar overload and laughed at non funny things. Just the basic.

Today I almost died. Yes almost. I was biking crossing a street(on a green light)when a car came(also on a green light, but was turning) I must have been in his blindspot because he didn't stop and almost hit me, it was so close that I felt the heat from the car on my leg. Zannen.

I don't think I have mentioned it before but my airco is possessed. It turns on when it feels like it and on the lowest heat setting and sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night shivering and get almost blown away because it's so powerful. not the best way to wake up.

that was a very lame blog... so sorry!

smell ya laters!

Again...

Again I forgot ( well...was to lazy) to blog. Very sorry! Again I suggest that you just look at some photos to find out what has been happening. (Kind of hasn't been much) sorry about that.

Last week, was filled with school, believe it or not, although we had a holiday on Wednesday so it was a perfect day for a....STUDY TRIP! Our destination was a Balloon festival that took place in Saga. So hot air balloons?!?!?!? yay! But due to some strong wind the balloon race that everyone was waiting for was canceled... not yay. But I had an awesome time anyways, the food was amazing and a lot of things to see and people to crash into!








Friday we decided to go to Karaoke, just a few girls together. Well we kind of kidnapped poor Mark B and took him with us. Around midnight he decided to go home. That left us girls there... not a wise thing to do. Gaijin girls alone at karaoke. Of course a very disgusting man decided to join us. After a few attempts to join us we left...! (no photos sumimasen)

Saturday I decided to join Heleen and Ayana to the swimming pool! It was very awesome until I was kindly asked to wear a long sleeved, turtleneck shirt...To hide my tattoos. Amazing!!! *not* thankfully...no photos of that either.
Theeeen I BOUGHT A NEW COMPUTER!!!!!!! very happy, since the old one was dying on me, and this one is awesome! MacBook pro 15" love it to death... must find an awesome name.

Sunday was the laziest day ever...stayed inside doing readings and homework...woop.

Mondays are off like I said before, (I think). This Monday I decided to wake up very early to go see fat, sweaty Japanese men in oversized thongs. yes, you heard me. We went to a Sumo stable in Daizaifu and watched a Sumo training with some of the Sumo that are taking part in the Fukuoka something championship...thing I think...
Anyway, it was very interesting I must say. I like sumo and I am considering a carrier. Must start training soon.

Daily Life...

...is wonderful! Mondays off, so we have a 3day long weekend!
In my class, Adjusting to Japan, we were told to write a journal on daily bases, so I'm gonna try. Starting now. I want to dedicate this blog to things that annoy me about Japan. There are a couple of things, of course, it's just normal..don't hate me!

1. The screaming women. They stand outside of their shops and constantly yelling: IIIIIIIRAAAAAASHAAAAAAIIIIIMAAAAASEEEEEEE DOOOOOUZOOOOOUUUUU. It's not just the yelling, it's the voice they yell in. Apparently you must have the worlds most annoying voice to get this job..


2. The chairs and tables: Of course Japan is build for smaller people...But I'm not tall, and still my legs do not fit under tables! and because of that...my legs look like old fruits, scraped and bruised.

3. The individually wrapped things: Everything is individually wrapped! You buy a package of cheese... every single slice is individually wrapped, cookies, candy, EVERYTHING! Must cost a fortune!


4. The bullet pillows: Oh there are no words for those! They are small, they are filled with..bullets and they are UNCOMFORTABLE!! They are so hard and small that you wake up with a concussion if you roll of them.

5. The no garbage cans in the streets: Why aren't there any garbage cans!?!? You can get rid of pet bottles and cans...but ordinary garbage!? nono, just stick it in your pocket or bag and get rid of it when you come home!

6. The garbage recycle: Okay I get recycling but come on! Burnable, non burnable, cartons, stacks of paper, glass, cans, I will never learn what goes in what bag and where to throw it away!

7. The yellow marks in the sidewalk. Well I get why they're there, for the blind people to know when they arrive at an intersection. Love the idea, but for clumsy me, I constantly bike sideways into the grooves, and almost fall over.

8. The fact that everything is 90 minutes: Enough said.

Only 8 facts that really annoy me! (I'll probably come across more over the time) I love Japan, and my life! (apart from those 8 things...)


This weekend I went on a study trip! It was so awesome, we went rice harversting, bbq-ed, danced with a Japanese Beatles cover band, made pottery in Europe.. went to an Onsen, and ...more? Just look at the pictures! they say more then my words!

The Beatles Cover Band:

Okay so...

here I sit somewhere in the middle of nowhere in Saitama city. I'm very lost and very hot. How did I get here?! let's find out shall we?!

Well on the 13th of September I flew to Iceland nr 2 (Denmark) to spend some quality time with my family. It was nice and cold...mmm cold... after 4 days with the crew, I met up with Ólöf and her ever so trusty Husky, Eros. We had some good fun, almost died of cold at a dog show, ate McDonalds and tried to shop pink thinks.

The morning of the 20th of September, after a very strange night of packing Ólöf trying to study and Eros breaking the last light of the apartment, I took my stuff and began the 18.30 hours of traveling to Japan.

Flight one: Copenhagen-Moscow.

at the airport in Denmark I wondered around waiting for my flight. When I sat down at the gate a priest sat next to me and stared until I said hello. "Hello" he replied and asked me what I was going to do in Moscow. I told him the truth, it was only a stop between flights. Then, without me asking him, he told me he was going to Russia to preform an exorcism. Honestly I didn't have a clue what to say to him at that point, but he became a little (more) creepy. Then again without me asking, he told me that his grandmother was russian... then it started to sound a little too much like The Exorcist, and I wondered if he was telling me the truth, but being a priest I would have to say that he was.
The flight was pretty boring accept for the fact that the flight attendants had to act out the security plan and show the exits old fashioned way. One of them was a guy looking strangely much like a member from the Cullen family... pale, blond, quiet and with light honey eyes. Strange. The best part: Every announcement was in Russian, followed by "English" Lady and Gent, This *mumble mumble mumble mumble* and *mumble mumble* Thank you. Then they offered me drinks...in Russian. Good times.

The airport in Moscow was huge and modern, but in every corner was a smoking station, usually in front of the bathrooms or perfume shops where the cashiers sprayed you with perfume every 3 seconds. Bought a monkey Babuska doll... :)

Flight 2: Moscow-Beijing.
7 and a half hours of boredom. Sat next to a Chinese man who slept and snored a lot. The snoring woke me up the one time I could fall asleep! Then I decided I had to go to the bathroom (oh, how I hate airplane toilets!) It' took me 20 minutes and a whole lot of shaking to wake him up, I ended up giving him a elbow shot and he woke with a loud snore.

Flight 3: Beijing-Tokyo
Not much to say about this 3 hour flight... it was a bit boring since the in flight entertainment was the same as from Moscow to Beijing... Airport was no fun since my bag decided on staying in Beijing, not surprising though, The Beijing Airport was awesome. Some really overly helpful woman helped me fill out everything and bowed too many times before she let me out, promising to send the bag to my hostel day later.


So I got lost a few times on my way from Ueno to Nishi-Kawaguchi so I decided on taking a cab. That took over an hour since there was rush hour and a lot of small accidents. The cab driver didn't seem to understand my Japanese and didn't listen to me when I told him Kawaguchi, saitama... finally after some time he figured out that I was going to Saitama.... bravo to him! after roaming around he stopped in front of a house and said HEEEERE WEEEE AAAAAREE loud and clear and sent me off. We were most definitely not there but he pointed and didn't go until I started walking up some stairs belonging to a elderly and a wee bit confused lady. I turned around and tried looking at the map I had, but found none of the places marked. After a moment I found out that I was on the right street and stood for a while trying to find out house numbers. After a confusing while someone tapped my arm and made a gesture for me to follow. A very nice lady knew where the hostel was and showed me to the door. When I thanked her she complemented my Japanese and in I went.
That's when I saw my *room* it is in fact a closed off bunk bed so small that I hardly fit in there!! Only one tatami mat and I can't sit in there without my head being bent down. My capsule is on the second floor left hand side! below me is a very VERY weird Korean guy and next to me is a very lovely Japanese man who is my conversation partner, which is awesome. The people here are very nice but this is SO TINY and can't say that I am very tall... but my only view in the mirror here are my boobs.

Knitting.

Knitting. Almost everyone I know are knitting. Tons of sweaters, hats, mittens and houses.*
I haven't tried that since elementary school, where my teacher told me that I was utterly useless and I shouldn't be taking these classes... (well I didn't choose to take them!!) How rude! But she was right. I was a colossal failure at sewing, knitting and basically everything that home aid class taught me (or at least tried to teach me).
I knitted myself to my scarf, I sewed myself to my sweater...and on it goes. While people were making mittens and socks and such (at the tender age of 12) I was struggling with my ugly ass scarf. People made 4 pairs of mittens while I did 3 lines of the sodding scarf. It is safe to say that the stupid scarf never got to do it's job as a scarf. Because I was so effing slow, it was turned into a worm. A worm with red Mickey Mouse ears, dragon spikes on it's back and a snake tongue. Utterly hideous.
But now, 12 years later, I decided, after some persuasion from friends, to knit a round scarf. Very easy task indeed. They say knitting is calming for you, it's fun and you can watch TV while you do it. All I know that it is rubbish. (uh very Top Gear-y, all we know, he's called the Stig...)
Armed with the basics; drumsticks, some yarn and the basic knowledge of knitting, I started. After about 20 agonizing minutes, filled with sweat, yarn burns and tears, all I did were a whopping 3 lines. I gave up. It wasn't calming, I couldn't watch TV and it most certainly wasn't fun. Thanks to knitting I have sore fingers, missed the movie I was watching and am very irritated.

My verdict.
DON'T DO IT!

*Haven't you seen a knitted house!?!? noob!

BREAD!!!













I found out that bread is really dangerous!!! read and take caution!!

Research on bread indicates that:

1. More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread users.
2. Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.
3. In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less than 50 years; infant mortality rates were unacceptably high; many women died in childbirth; and diseases such as typhoid, yellow fever, and influenza ravaged whole nations.

4. More than 90 percent of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread.
5. Bread is made from a substance called "dough." It has been proven that as little as one pound of dough can be used to suffocate a mouse. The average American eats more bread than that in one month!

6. Primitive tribal societies that have no bread exhibit a low incidence of cancer, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, and osteoporosis.
7. Bread has been proven to be addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water to eat begged for bread after as little as two days.
8. Bread is often a "gateway" food item, leading the user to "harder" items such as butter, jelly, peanut butter, and even cold cuts.
9. Bread has been proven to absorb water. Since the human body is more than 90 percent water, it follows that eating bread could lead to your body being taken over by this absorptive food product, turning you into a soggy, gooey bread-pudding person.

10. Newborn babies can choke on bread.
11. Bread is baked at temperatures as high as 400 degrees Fahrenheit! That kind of heat can kill an adult in less than one minute.
12. Most American bread eaters are utterly unable to distinguish between significant scientific fact and meaningless statistical babbling.

In light of these frightening statistics, it has been proposed that the following bread restrictions be made:

1. No sale of bread to minors.
2. A nationwide "Just Say No To Toast" campaign, complete celebrity TV spots and bumper stickers.
3. A 300 percent federal tax on all bread to pay for all the societal ills we might associate with bread.
4. No animal or human images, nor any primary colors (which may appeal to children) may be used to promote bread usage.
5. The establishment of "Bread-free" zones around schools.

Oh dear...

Okei, I found a new yummi-looking recipe and decided to try it. Usually I'm a pretty good cook (when it comes to chicken,) so I tried.

Finely chopped ginger, begin to chop ginger but accidentally almost chopped finger off. Ouch.

(Father laughs and points out that it is the ginger that is supposed to be finely chopped, not my finger.) Thanks for clearing that out.

Next two tablespoons of soy sauce. Good no problem.

Zest of one lime. I don't have the right tools!! *rumbles through kitchen cupboards* Hmm this looks fine. zip zip zip, OUCH zipped skin off finger... not good. (Father laughs more)

Juice of one lime. Cut lime in half, no accidents (v.g) but as I squeeze out juice it sprayed in left eye and into cut on finger. ouch (Father leaves kitchen roaring with laughter)

add honey and garlic. No problem.

pour over chicken, for a sticky and zesty lime and ginger chicken! Can't wait

ready now, smells very good! Looks...not sticky at all..

testing it with some rice hope it's good!

hmm kind of feels like one is eating tequila, thanks to lime and salt...

A tale of a girl

This is a tale of horror...

The thunderstorm is blasting, lighting up the sky with ghostly bright flashes and the wind blows in the willows in the huge, dark yard. In the yard stands also a big, dark, old house, the once white painting almost gone and it stands there bare against the cold, windy night.
A lone wolf howls against the full but shadowy moon in the far distance, but hush... What was that? Was there just flick of light in one of the windows?
*

On the top floor of the old house, sits a sweet girl, dressed in a long flow-y white nightgown, doing her Kanji worksheet, when suddenly she hears a strange noise. "What can that be?" she thinks, "Is that music? it sounds familiar, but from where is it coming?
She slipped out of her antique bed, and put on her worn slippers. In her white nightgown she tip-toed through the darkness, looking like a eerie ghost as she followed the sound of the mysterious music.
The chills raced down her spine as she realized that the music was coming from the attic. Cold sweat broke o
ut on her forehead when she remembered from where she knew the music. It was her old creepy doll which has been kept in the attic for many years now. It was given to her as a child, from a very old and strange aunt, which was know in her town for witchcraft. Terrified she ran back to her room and slammed the door. At that moment the power went off. "Oh deary me" she thought and tried to calm her nervs. This can't be. The door slowly opened and she let out a bone-chilling scream as a lightning blasted and showed the doll standing in the doorway.



This story is true, well, the point of me hearing the strange music from the attic and realizing it's coming from a very creepy doll, that I hate... is true, the rest is for drama 'cause we loves it!

*think of kind a Tim Burton-y feeling, tall old naked trees and a large pointy steel gate....


over and out!

Jiya Nihego Blog.

I haven't been blogging at all! why?! The reason why is my busy life and the fact that the all mighty spirit of the blogging world went on a holiday without letting me know. He returned now, but I would have to say that it is not the best time for him to muse me ...during a Chinese culture class. One could be a little hurt. It has also become so that my English is in the state of being heta desu. I have become to think that is because the Nihongo no book has really weird English. I am in the state of trying to speak better ego and see (how that goes.)

What have I done since last time?
*I applied for Universities in Nihon, demo I haven't gotten answers yet. any day now!
*I started school
*I'm bad at not only Japanese, but in ego as well (it has been getting worse slowly)
*I'm even stranger than before

and ... Edda is here!! (applause) which is awesome, I was in the need for a fellow über crazy atama. (not that my friends are normal, you know who you are).

Edda came bringing gifts, and as for me, from Edda, I received iPod Touch Nihon candy.

Burundisu san had a slumber party where everyone was very genki and had a good time with loads of osake (jiya, some people were more genki then others) people came bringing osake and pajamas, I came bearing such things as osake, and and other drinkable mono. I came in my blue shorts but was not the only one!
Singstar was raped (brutally in the unsmeared* anal) and it is safe to say that it is tricky tricky tricky tricky ....
The highlight of the the night (well....besides Edda's return) was when Svava had everyone fighting for breath when she performed a truly Oscar-y version of the word "moan"...in Actionary. Wish I had a video of that...
