WOW

it has been way too long. but that's not entirely my fault. blogger was acting kinda funky everytime i tried to log in. ま、遊んでたからいいけどさ。




so, i had two weeks of pure fun! :) so, my friend in germany came back and i also had two weeks off work. だから、そのコと結構遊びましたね。遊んだと言っても、ほとんど映画やテレビ見ながらおしゃべりしたりしてただけだけどね。あっ！後、ちょっぴりセフレみたいになっちゃいました。>.< 彼がいいって言ってるからいいんだけどね。彼のエッチもいいけど、セフレ君とのエッチも結構．．．just that he seemed to have a hard time keeping it up. lol. なんか、知ってる（友達って意味）と変なんだって～。




anyways, the movies i watched: thor, little fockers, the dilemma, green hornet, true grit, no strings attached, defiance. i think that's all of them. all of them besides thor were redbox rentals. ほとんど面白かったよ。最近映画あんま見てないから楽しかったね。



aaaanddddd, LAS VEGAS!!! just came back yesterday. it was so much fun!! stayed at vdara, which is a pretty new hotel and really nice. the bf said trump was better. でも、結構ストリップの中心に位置してたから、場所的には良かったね。oh, and i won like $125 when i put in $20, so that was good! and i got a $50 marguerita. it was sooooo goooooood. and the bf paid for it. haha. 高いね。ありがと。




そんなこんなで色々あった2週間でしたね。楽しかったです！

Las Vegas!

wow, it's been a while since i posted. haha. well, been busy. went to Las Vegas this week to celebrate the bf's birthday. it was a really hectic schedule and i ended up going about 48 hours on 1.5 hours of sleep. すごいでしょ？？自分でもビックリ。i honestly did not think i could do that. i've never pulled an all-nighter before.

楽しかったです！部屋はよかったし、ご飯もおいしかったし、色々遊べたし、何より、親がいなかったし（笑）we gambled a bit. probably lost about a little over $100 together. not bad right? since we're both noobs at gambling, we decided to stay conservative. although the bf insisted on being very conservative which was annoying as hell.
we opened a bottle of champagne at dinner to celebrate the bfs birthday. he didn't seem to like it too much so i ended up drinking almost the entire bottle. おいしかったよ～。寝不足と酔いが回って結構楽しくなっちゃった。えへへ。ま、次の日二日酔いにならなかったから、そんなに呑んでないと思うけど。i mean, its just champagne, right??
we also went to the bfs little sister's graduation. high school. so long ago. haha. 卒業生は皆若かったですね。年を感じちゃいます。man, the place was packed. and the ceremony was quite long, cuz her class was like, 500 people. :O 名前呼ぶのだけで結構時間掛かった。and then afterwards, the little sister wanted to take pictures, which is understandable. でも、、、メッチャ時間掛かった～。どんだけ友達おるねん！寒いし、腹減っとんじゃ！となり、ちょっと苛々。we got ayce korean bbq afterwards so it was all good. hehe.

long weeeek

so, i haven't been on blogger in a while. haha. been a bit busy with stuff. plus, its spring break. since i haven't been here in such a long time, this is gonna be a looooong post.... 覚悟しぃや～（笑）

last friday: 風引いてほとんど一日ベッドで。。。-___- マジ最悪。i think the roomie got me sick, since she was sick at the beginning of the week. being confined to the bed sucks. but all throughout the day, i was thinking of the movie 「猫の恩返し」 that i saw the other day. it was really cute and happy. やっぱジブリやね。もう、ずっっっっっっとつじあよのの曲を鼻歌で歌ってた。
monday: my cousin came from japan :D 夏にあったけど、こっち来るのは久しぶり～。関西やからつられて関西弁連発～。あはは。楽しいわ。やっぱ。at night, we went out to drink at Applebee's with the bf and his friends. i got a martini. 別にあんまりおいしくなかった。もっとおいしいかと思ったからちょっと期待はずれ。
tuesday: KNOTT'S BERRY FARM :) 楽しかった～。マジ、はしゃぎまくった。haven't been there in ages. forgot what it was like. riding "ghost rider" gave me a headache... but the cousin liked it so we ended up riding it like 3 times. =_= お昼は．．．PINK'S! i did not know they made one at knott's. it was so exciting. i've been wanting to go for a while. やっぱ、ホットドッグうまし！
wednesday: we packed up all our stuff and off we went to big bear (sidetrip) and palm desert (main). DUDE, there was freakin' snow!!! haven't seen snow in ages. haha. 山道クネクネ行った甲斐がありました～。and then we got to the hotel at palm desert, the J.W. Marriott. they have this huge lake, on which they give boat tours. according to that, they have 2 huge golf courses, 2 pool areas, a lawn area for activities, a nightclub, 3 renowned restaurants, etc. すごかったよ。they had flamingos and black swans too!! ちょっぴり感動～。
thursday: 朝から最近マイ･ブームのバドミントンを遊んで、その後プール。haven't worn my bathing suit in a while. it felt so nice tho, since its so hot out there in the desert. and then we did some mini golf. ベッタやった。悲しい～。って言うか、悔しい～。and at night, the bf and i went to the jacuzzi. there was someone there already before us, but after a bit, they left. too bad the bf wanted to leave soon after... i wanted to get a little naughty ;) でも、前日に生理始まったからなぁ～。

friday: after checking out, we play a quick round of mini golf and head out. stop by morongo casino, gamble a bit, and swing around to desert hills outlet to do some shopping. めっちゃ買い物した。this day, i got a jacket, beige pants, denim shorts, a top, sandals, and a bag. dude, that's like, an entire set of clothing. lol.私がこんなに買い物するのは珍しいです。当分はいらんな。 saturday: today, we went to the roadium flea market in gardena cuz the cousin wanted to do some shopping. afterwards, we headed over to long beach and did a teensy bit of sightseeing. for dinner, we had some sushiiii. おいしかった。えへ。
so yea, quite the hectic week. spring break is almost over and the cousin will be going home in a couple more days. 寂しくなりますね。ugh, and its also gonna suck dealing with the mom... 最近ヒステリックに拍車が掛かってる気がする。今日だって腕引っかかれたし。the bf keeps saying i should leave, but... あんだけ「死ぬ、死ぬ」言われたらね。マジで死なれたら後味悪いよな。難しい問題です。疲れた。寝るべ、寝るべ。

2009

alas, 2009 is finally ending. 長い一年でした。色々ありました。でも、まだ新年はあんまし迎えたくない．．．ugh.

so, this year, i was finally able to go to japan!! wooottt~~~. やっとだぜ。従兄たちにもめっちゃ久しぶりに会えたし。北海道にも行けたし。楽しかったな～。漫画もメッチャ買ったし（笑）seriously, i got a lot. andddd, most importantly, i got to eat some goooodd japanese food. haha. お小遣いもいっぱいもらったしね。always a good thing, right? esp. since i'm a poor college student. hehe.

and then, there was the fire. -____- 超大変だった。サイアク。新品のパソコンも破損。何とか皆無事だったけど、漫画とか色々なくなった。my yearbooks gone was really sad... で、その後がまた大変で！仮住まいを探したり、保険会社と交渉したり、ヤなことばっか。at least we're finally starting to settle. i guess.

so, it's the end of the year. and my friend is back from japan. spent some time hanging out with him and some other friends today. we had a 飲み会 at his place tonight. 紅白見ながら皆でワイワイ騒いで。両親迷惑だったろうな～。ごめんなさい！but yea, the friend was vomiting by around 11 so headed home and so now, i am celebrating the coming new year at home with the bf♥


Happy New Years everybody!!

Airline Nightmare

so, my mom was supposed to come back sunday night from her cruise. she was supposed to take a flight from ft. lauderdale to dallas fort worth to los angeles. everything that could possibly go wrong did...

最初は、ft. lauderdale から出るフライトが２時間ぐらい遅れて、dallas での乗り継ぎが間に合わなくなったの。それから、miami に移動したらしいのだけど、どのフライトにも乗れず、結局その日は miami 止まり。でも、なぜか荷物だけは los angeles に着いたからそれを取りに行く為がだけに lax まで直行。

she was finally able to come back sometime around the evening of monday. but man, sunday was totally wasted. couldn't do much cuz we couldn't figure out when my mom would be getting back. damn american airlines. -___-

btw, i'm really interested in this guy, Jay Sean right now. anyone know who he is?? he's that guy that sings the song "Down". it was #1 on the billboards too. dude, he's INDIAN. did not know that. my roomie and i were like, 'but he sounds so black'. (not trying to be racist. just the style of music and the voice, i pressume) technically, british-indian. but yea, he's the first south asian to get #1 on the billboards. crazy. anyways, really catchy song. plus, he's kinda cute :)

Duplicity, Defiance, おっぱいバレー

ただいま、アメリカ！ずいぶんご無沙汰の間に結構いろいろ変わっててびっくり、見たいな？（笑）帰りもまた、ANAのビジネスクラスに乗ってまいりました～。広い、広い。楽でしたね。
so, on the flight home, i watched two movies: Duplicity and おっぱいバレー。i've been wanting to watch duplicity for a while so i was happy when i finally got to watch it. hehe. BUT. it was okie. not as great as i wanted it to be. ちょっと複雑でしたね。it kept going in back and forth between the present and the future. it's hard to tell exactly what's happening until like the middle of the movie.
おっぱいバレーは、面白かった。very cute. haha. ちょっと下っぽいんだけど、それでも爽快感みたいなのがあって。バランスよかったね。見たい人は見れべし！you won't believe the amount of times they say おっぱい in that movie. loldefiance, i watched with the bf. it was interesting. i like kinda sad movies as well as WWII movies so it really fit my taste. apparently, the bf thought it was kinda boring. eh. whatever. 切ないながらも勇気を与えてくれるような作品だったね。a bit long tho. maybe that's because i was watching while i was really sleepy. o well. *shrug* it was decently good, as was the acting. that's all that matters, right?

KNOWING

went to watch knowing with my uncle. STUPIDEST movie everrrrrrrrrr. なんちゅう落ちや！って感じ。絶対見ないほうがいい。such a waste of money. it was fine till the middle. then it started getting really weird. and then, at the climax, i was like -_______-

on a good note, i got some new earrings. ネコのネ。めっちゃかわいいよ～。昨日の夜に神戸に行って。焼肉食べて、モザイクに行ってきました。そこで、ピアス買ってもらっちゃった。えへ。楽しかった♪

行ってきた～。楽しかった。アメリカ村サイコー！！there was so much weird crap, it's not even funny. and, there were so many places that i've seen in pictures but never got to see in real life even though it's so freakin' close. lol.

ゴスロリ系のお店にも行ったぜ～！めっちゃ小さな店でめっちゃ混んでた。セール中だったみたい。omg, there was so much clothes crammed into that small shop. too bad they don't allow pictures. for those of you who don't know 'gosurori', look below↓後、お土産買ったぜ～。と帽子。ずっと欲しかったヤツが見つかった！めっちゃウレシイ :)

ドンキ

へ行ってまいりました！もうすごかったです！物がごちゃごちゃしててあふれ返ってました。there was seriously so much stuff! i've always kinda wanted to go so i was a bit happy. what sucked was that because i was with my mom, i couldn't really buy what i wanted to, much less go look for them. ドンキはメイド服とかあるからなぁ～ *hint hint*
ま、また行くけどね。叔母ちゃんにもう頼んであるし。マミーが帰ったら連れてってって。oh, and my dad was able to find this really cute dress that i found in hakodate that i didn't buy. so, he's gonna send it to me. hopefully, it's the right one in the right color. *excited* :)

FML

Today, I was supposed to take a 1.5 hour plane ride from Osaka to Hakodate (Hokkaido) but I ended up going to the wrong airport and so had to take a 10 hour train ride instead, switching trains 3 times in the process. Ended up in Hakodate at 1 a.m. FML
should i try submitting this?? lol. it's trueee. haha. 昨日はめっちゃ疲れた。大変だった。だって、航空券予約したときは伊丹空港って言ったのに関空発になってるんだもん。で、伊丹に行ったらもちろん、乗れない。sooo annoying. since we had rail passes, we decided to go by train. -_- ま、確かめなかった自分も悪いんだけどね。

currently in hakodate. i hope to eat lots of good food! especially since the seafood here is delicious :)

従兄弟

昨日は神戸の方に行ったけど、i ended up not buying anything. just manga. lol. で、夜は従兄弟と飲み会～♪

めっちゃ飲む同い年の従兄弟（女）。晩御飯から数えると、ビール４缶、芋焼酎１杯。that's a lot! seriously. i just had 1 can of チューハイ。ビールキライだもん。and we talked quite a bit. 恋愛、ガッコ、将来、家族、友達、etc. etc. it was fun :) we ended up talking till around 2 a.m. and then she left to shower and i left to sleep. i woke up at 6 this morning. =_=. lol. honey, i'll tell you more about it when i get back :]
明日は北海道。函館です！楽しみ♪　食いまくるぞっ！very excited to not have to work for my uncle for a while. it's not that i don't want to. but i kinda want a break now. just to have a bit of fun. so, for now, i'm very excited!Currently listening to: What I've Done - Linkin Park

Transformers and Hellboy

見ました！Transformers was on tv. it was pretty good. but the damn thing was 3 hours long and had lost of commercials. ウザイぞ！was kinda sleepy too. so i kinda missed out on the good part where they began fighting. lol. 意味ねぇ。overall, it was pretty good tho. i though megan fox looked pretty hot. except in real life. haha.
i also watched Hellboy II: the Golden Army. そこそこ面白かった。i haven't seen the first Hellboy movie tho. でも、普通に見れたね。it was a good action flick. not something i'd actually pay to see in the theaters tho. but if it's a rental, i guess.
日本に来て全然遊んでないぞ。お仕事ばっか。（笑）but apparently, my uncle'll take me shopping in kobe on wednesday. i want some new cute tops, maybe a skirt, and some new lingerie :) 楽しみにしてね♪

JAPAN!!

so, i finally made it to japan. after a 10:50 hour flight to tokyo and another 1:30 hour flight to osaka. つ～か～れ～た～。シャワーは入れないのがイヤね。しかも！！予感的中で飛行中に生理始まり～。サ・イ・ア・ク。

on the good side, the plane ride to tokyo was upgraded to business class. OMG! it was soooooooo nice. the seats were ginormous and were the kind that convert to beds. although they're probably not as comfy as first class. そして！食事もビジネスのイイやつだった！ちょーウマイ！感激。and then, when we got to tokyo, my uncle took me to eat some good ramennn. jealous, honey?? hehe.

awesome, huh?

well, for now, that's about all for the updates. had a decent trip. i'll try to keep updating. bye~

Moving in

moving in to the new apartment was a lot more stressful and tiresome than i imagined. how much stuff can two girls have? is what i was thinking. the answer is, A LOT! ハンパなく多かった。っていうのも、ルームメートの方がだけどね。自分の物はやっぱりそんなになかった。but man, we were there moving stuff for nearly 12 hours!! seriously, tiring..
what sucks even more was that we couldn't get my sofa, which was at the old apartment, to fit into the elevator or stairwell at the new apartment. so we had to bring it home. もうそれが大変で。しかも、ウチのうるさい母親はめっちゃ連絡してくるし。早く帰ってご飯作って欲しかったみたい。知るかっつぅの。

ま、そんなこんなでほとんど動かせたたね。my roommate has been going back to the apartments to finish up and clean, which is really nice of her. she knows i don't have a lot of time and she's being really helpful about it. well, i'm off to japan tomorrow! can't wait!!! :)

the 08/09 school year is finally over. i am officially done with my third year... that was fast. there's so much going on now. i need to get ready to move to my new apartment and i need to get ready to go to japan. 時間が経つのは早いね。あっと言う間に過ぎる。ugh, and i'm scared of what my grades are gonna be....

on the other hand, i loveeeeee our new apartment. so excited!! plus. i get to go to japan!! *dance* ちょー楽しみ♪　めっちゃ長いこと行ってないからね。久々に従兄弟とかにも会えるしね。ohhh. i wanna do lots of clothes shopping. 日本のカワイイものね。but nothing fobby. lol.
too bad i have no time to see my friends from high school and my old japanese school before i leave. there's just not enough time. i miss you guys tho!! お土産買わないと。あはは。

Hiking & 21

yesterday was my guilty pleasure day with the bf. so, what did we decide to do?? we decided to go to the mountains and do some hiking. 結構楽しかった♪　でも、思ったより何もなかった。we met some people fishing and that seemed like fun tho. :)

my local mountains :)

今度は自転車持っていってダムまで行こうと決めました。（笑）it was really hot tho. but it was nice to just kick back and eat lunch in the wild. haha.

after that, we went back to his place and decided to watch "21". i had heard it was good but never got the chance to watch it in the theaters so we borrowed it. it was a decent movie. the main guy was kinda cute :)　うん。そこそこよかった。
で、夕食には友達が働く近くのおすし屋さんに行った。やっぱおすしはうまか～。
