Bestie Date

last night, had a fun date night with the bestie :) it was a belated birthday hangout. lol. 前に行ったことあるスペイン料理店に行きました。bar celona in pasadena. we had a lot of catching up to do. 喋りまくってましたね。時間はあんまり無かったけど、楽しいひと時でした。

she also got me macarons as a present!! it was from a place that i've been wanting to try. she's awesome like that :D haven't had one yet but can't wait!!

The Homeless

i work in downtown, which means i pass by a lot of bums on the street during my commute. まぁ、ロスに住んでる以上、慣れたっちゃぁ慣れたけど、やっぱり、何か心苦しい。i know that not all of them out on the street are their because of their own faults. some are there because they have no other choice. だからかなぁ、見てるとちょっと悲しいキモチになる。

でも、だからって何もしない私って罪ですかね? but i'm never sure what i should do... should i give them money? but i heard it's better if you give them food and other essentials. but it's not like i always have extra food readily available. plus, i just started working so it's not like i have the 余裕 to do so too. でも、何もしないのもどうかと思う。苦悩してます。

BONFIRE!!!

today was a bonfire at huntington beach with my friends from high school. some of those attending, i haven't seen in years. so i decided to go. だって、こんなチャンス滅多にないと思うし。and it was my first bonfire.

it was a lot of fun. we played football, volleyball, took pictures, and generally just relaxed and chatted. ホントに久しぶりに会う人が多くてビックリ。やっぱ、中々会う機会が無いなって改めて実感した。本当はもっと遊びたいけど、親が親なだけに、中々難しかったりする。but this was a great opportunity! driving there was a bitch tho. soooooo far from my house. took nearly an hour cuz there was traffic along the way too....

we had a bunch of foods. like wings, pizza, chips, baked goods, candy, etc. oh, and someone also brought alcohol. lol. 本当は違法だけど、まバレなきゃ問題ないっしょ。私は飲まなかったけどね。but man, it was cold. so much wind, and the temperature just dropped at night. 寒い寒い。でも、夏の最後の楽しい思い出ですね。:)

Libra

last friday, went out to dinner with the old boss. he's actually a family friend so this is probably gonna happen every now and then. ugh, i really don't like the guy too much... ま、でもおいしいもの食べれるからいいっか。

so, last friday, went to Libra in Culver City. it's a brazilian churrasco place. ああいうところって基本バイキングなのかな？よく分からないけど、ココもバイキングでした。i'm only comparing it to the place in farmer's market since that's the only one i know. but yea, OMG DELISH!!!!!!! めっちゃ食べまくっちゃった。食べ過ぎて、ちょっともどしちゃったもん。（すみません、汚いですね）they have 15 different cuts of meat and a salad bar that you can eat from. the salad bar isn't just salad but has some cold and warm appetizers as well. マジ最高!

what was also great was the omiyage from japan that i finally got and my compensation for working. as compensation for working, i got a $375 AE gift card! woot!! 色々買っちゃうぞ！as for my omiyage, got the game i've been wanting for a while, Catherine on PS3. :) it's looks interesting but apparently, it's pretty hard.... we'll see. i just need to have a working remote... すぐ遊べないのが残念。遊びたいです！
