Ninja Assassin and Korean BBQ

last night, went out with the bestie and a couple of other peoples. don't like big crowds too much, but it was manageable. hehe. but yea, it was movie and dinner night. had some funnnnn :)

for the movie, we decided to watch Ninja Assassin. 彼の同僚が面白いって言ったから見に行こうってことになった。BUT! it wasn't that great... the story and plot were very superficial and stupid. -_____-x めっちゃ期待ハズレ。not something you'd want to spend $8,9 bucks on to watch in theaters. the main guy, Rain (a korean singer/actor) wasn't really that good lookin' either. it was just really gory. ま、アクションが好きならまぁまぁかも？でも、動きが早すぎて見終わったら頭痛くなった。本当に残念。
dinner was in koreatown. korean bbq! went to Hae Jang Chon Korean BBQ. all you can eat meat for $16.99. not too bad. and the food itself was pretty decent too. もうちょっとお肉に味が付いててほしいけど、、、plus, our waiter looked really tired and ヤル気ゼロ。dude, we were there for about 3 hours. lol. i'm sure the restaurant people wanted us out of there. each portion is pretty big and we ate like 12+ plates of meat. 超食べ過ぎた。ふ～と～る。それでなくても最近太ってきたのに。。。。ugh. too late now, i guess. but yea, ate like crazy. 後が大変ね。

Couples Retreat

finally watched "Couples Retreat", starring Vince Vaughn and Kristen Bell. It was pretty funny. a lot more sexual innuendos than imagined. lol. twas fun tho :)went to watch it at the $3 theater. 安い！へへ。でも、安いだけに客層がよくない。dude, there were these 3 guys that were sitting a few seats down from us who were laughing at the top of their voices. you could barely hear what the characters were saying. うるさいし、ウザイし、最悪。ああいう客キライ。もう少し回りを気遣ってほしい。バ～カ！

OMG! and the guy next to me. he was a fatty (sorry, not trying to be mean, but the guy was partially in my seat...) and he kept shaking his leg. i talked to the bf sitting to the other side of me and he said that he could feel the shaking too. -__- 貧乏ゆすりやめろや！このヤローォォォォォォォォォォォォ！って感じ。ugh.

but yea, overall, the movie was nice. made me realize that marriage might not be so bad after all. i just hope i get the right guy. lol :)

Twilight... again

i kinda still like twilight. the book. never seen the movie. i hear the first one sucked ass. the second one is apparently really good. it's even breaking records. it beat "The Dark Knight". :O how can this beeeeeeee.

ま、でも、所詮子供向けだと思うけどね。i just liked it because it was an easy read and i'm really truely girly. but dude, this site was hilarious. *warning* fans might be offended. :)

btw, this is their depiction of Edward Cullen. LOL!

Yamato Restaurant

i think i've mentioned Yamato before. well, i finally got to go. overall, it was eh. Happy Hour で安いのは安いけど、やっぱそれだけの味だね。多分、もう行かない。

before deciding to go, i read a bunch of reviews on yelp. most said that the place was pretty good and the happy hour is awesome. there were quite a bit of complaints about the service. でも、ま、一応日本食だからそれほどひどくないだろうと期待していたのに、全然ダメだった。after we sat down at the table, it took a good 7-8 minutes for the waiter to come. どんだけ待たせるんだよっ！みたいな。and they seriously never came even once to refill water. しかも、めちゃめちゃ混んでた訳でもなく。どうなってるんですか？？


and of course, most of the food was just eh. sorry, no pics, since it was dark and i didn't want the flash going off. but yea, it was probably a bit under mediocre. 何せ、味がついてるはずの物のほとんどがあんまり味しなかった。素材の味以外は。too bland. ugh. so yea, overall experience was not so great.

おニューのピアスと Kyochon Chicken

ever since i lost a lot of my earrings in the fire, i've been wanting some new ones. finally got a pair today. the bf bought them for me and i really love them♥ :)

Glendale Galleria is where i bought them. よくある、カートでアクセを売ってるお店で見つけました。全部手作りだそう。so it was a bit pricey. $15 + tax. でも、すごくかわいいし気に入ってる。it's simple but pretty. now, i just have to make sure i don't lose them.

the reason we went to Glendale Galleria was to try out some Kyochon Chicken. it's korean style fried chicken and my mom wanted to try some. they have 2 types of sauces, garlic soy and sweet & hot. 試しに両方取ってみた。dude, the sweet & hot was soooo spicy. 唇が麻痺し始めたぐらい。but it was soooo good at the same time. irresistable. the soy garlic was really good too but i think i like the sweet & hot better. if i can eat it. lol. でも、すごく美味しかったから是非ともトライ！they have a couple locations around socal. just google them.Currently listening to: カラコイ〜だから少女は恋をする〜 - 三千院ナギ&綾崎ハヤテ starring 釘宮理恵&白石涼子

Sleep

i am incredibly sleepy. なぜでしょう？it's not like i had a hard time sleeping last night. i did wake up a bit earlier today than expected. でも、そんなにひどかったわけではない。but i am really really tired and sleepy.

just came back from an hour and fifteen minute lecture. dude, i spent most of that lecture time sleeping... =_= zzzzz.... みたいな？やばいです。教授が何話してたかなんてぜんぜん分かんない。

on the good side, next week is thanksgiving week. :) hopefully, i'll get some turkey this year. i really love thanksgiving food but my fam fam doesn't really celebrate it so never get to eat it. 彼ん家だったら食べれるかな？？:)

イクって何？

i was reading 「魔女は二度喘ぐ」no.2 by 北川みゆき and there was this part where the main character was like, 「よく映画や漫画でいとも容易く女の子はイクということができる。私はまっだイッたことがない」みたいなことを言っていた。and then, later on, one of her coworkers was like describing orgasms as kind of like a roller coaster. and i was like :O もしや私もまだイッたことはないのでは!? (気づけよって？笑）

seriously, if you never really experienced it, how are you supposed to know?? i mean, i've think i've somewhat orgasmed before, but maybe it's not that strong...? is that even a right measure?? わからん。是非ともジェットコースター並みのを味わってみたいものです。

Karaoke & メイド服

this weekend was decently fun. first and foremost, i was able to go karaoke. メッチャ久しぶり!! oh how i missed it. しかも、happy hour に行けたから安い！it was so much fun. でも、飲み物持って行くの忘れたから喉カラカラ。it's cuz the bf doesn't sing that much so i end up singing a lot. -__- ま、楽しかったからいいけど。

i also had to go back to the burned house this weekend. there, i was able to recover all my certificates from school and my high school diploma. i had totally forgotten about those. でも、無事だったから良かった。もうすぐ取り壊しが始まるらしい。it'll be saddening to see it go down :(

色々探索してたら、前に日本で買って帰ったメイド服を発見! これはかなりウレシイ。だって、お気に入りだったから。しかも、あんまり汚くなってなかったから帰って洗ったらすごいキレイになった。so, yea, having fun with it again ;)

no, that is not me. i'm not that cute, unfortunately... :)

on a different note, i was finally able to find a wallet that i like. no more rummaging through my bag for $$ and cards. it's so nice to have a wallet. でも、結構高かった。＄１００した。and that was with the 50% off sale. Nina Ricci の財布。いい買い物した～。

a beautiful nina ricci dress :)

oh, and i'm really liking owl city right now. definite recommend! listen to it <3

YOSHI! <3

so, i got a really really early x'mas present from the roomie. i know, really early, right?? lol. anyways, she got me a yoshi stuffed animal. yea, the yoshi from mario brothers.

サイズで言ったら、中ぐらいかな？i have a really small one that the bf got me a while back. i guess that was the hint?? ま、ぬいぐるみ類は好きだからいいけど、同じのをくれてもね～。i really liked the small one that the bf got me, so the bigger one was like... "okay... thanks..." well, i've gots to think about what to get the roomie now.

浮気願望？

皆様は浮気願望とかありますか？it's not that i do. but i am curious. not about the whole cheating. but what it would be like with a different guy. am i weird?

this may be because i don't have a lot of dating experience. でも、人それぞれ違うから、やっぱり付き合い方とかも違うでしょ？他の男の人だったらどう違うかな？ってたまに思っちゃう。is that bad? gosh, i hope not...

but, i'll probably never cheat. i love the bf too much. :) and i don't want to hurt him. でも、妄想はいいでしょ？

EPIC FAIL

just thought that was funny ↑

now here's something you don't hear everyday: attempting a drive-by shooting with the windows rolled up. o_O

もう、どうひっくり返っても馬鹿だよね。he's stupid at the point that he attempted a drive-by. how much of a coward must you be? apparently, he was drunk too. -__- he was aiming for the house of his ex-girlfriend. 未練たらたらじゃん？女々しい。ホント、呆れる。

MY SUSHI :)

had some last night! cut in to my studying time for my midterm this morning, but totally worth it :) it was a lot of fun. なによりも美味しかった！タダだしね。

salmon sushi and my sake!

sea urchin! omfg delicious :)

dynamite!

hand rolls~

so much sushi!!

so, went out with the roomie and a friend of hers. btw, this is the first time we've been out to eat together since we started college. ３年ちょい一緒に住んでて初めてだよ！？ま、別に深くかかわりたくないからいいケド．．．


anyways, we went out to this place called "Kanpai" in Westchester (i think..), near Marina del Rey. the roomie had gotten a coupon on restaurant.com when it was on sale. eat $100 and get $50 off. だから、頼みまくった。


お店自体は小さくてモダン風だった。but it was really cramped and really crowded. got there around 7:30 but had to wait for like 30 minutes for a seat. ま、でも思う存分お寿司が食べれました！！お酒も少し飲んだし。結構楽しい夜でした。only sad part was that i didn't get to see my bf that night, even tho he was in my area :(


ちなみに、タダで食べれたのは roomie からのかな～り遅い誕生日プレゼントでした。

悪い女？

たまに自分で自分がすごい悪い女だって思えてくる。それには色々理由があります。。。

i can lie with a straight face and sometimes, not even feel that guilty about it. if it suits my needs, i can lie. blatantly. i mean, it's not like i do it to hurt people. but if it will help me from being hurt, i'll be more than happy to lie. これは小さい頃からだね。自分の都合のいいように嘘付いてきた。そのうちバチが当たるかも。

i can also be quite manipulative. i'm passive aggressive. i can somewhat make the people close to me move in the way i want them too. いい例が彼。i like to make him feel guilty towards me. 何か、そういう時って自分が愛されてることを確認できる。サイテーだよね。i mean, that's not the only time i feel loved. でも、たまにね、再確認したくなるのかも。i'm gonna try to stop.

i'm not a good person. i try to be, but i'm usually just scared of getting hurt, so i play "the good girl". in real life, i'm nothing like that. but i kinda hope i can actually become that good girl, if a pretend hard enough.

怪我

怪我しちゃった～。痛いです。on my right hand too. ugh. i have a midterm this thurs. and i need to take notes in class. タイミング悪っ！so, what happened was that i was moving stuff at the old burned house. we had moved a metal room divider type things and leaned it against a wall. well, i guess it wasn't leaning against the wall too well. instinctively, i dove to try to stop it. で、右手を強打。痣になって、ちょっと切れたかな？it's more sore than painful.

早くよくなりますように。
