it's that time of year again. 紅白歌合戦。wasn't really interested this year so i didn't really know who was going to be in it. ま、でも年越しはやっぱり紅白見ないとね。だから一応見始めた。お寿司食べた後にね。えへへ。so, i thought i might as well look up who's on it. then, guess who was on it?? L'ARC~EN~CIEL!!!!!!!!!! :O 超ビックリ。でもうれしい！！
once i heard what song they were playing, it became pretty clear as to the obvious reason as to why they're on it. they sang 「BLESS」. that was the NHK theme song for the Vancouver Olympics this year. そりゃ出るだろ。ま、曲が良くて選ばれたから、紅白出れるのも当然だね。えへへ。才能だね。
oh man, and hyde looked as sexy as ever too. :) もう、かっこよすぎ。しかも、ラルクまた活動開始みたいだから、来年は楽しみだね。HAPPY NEW YEARS EVE!!

the bestie and i were finally able to hang out tonight. it's been a while. apparently, at least 3 months. lol. 長いね。but it was fun. we just sat at a cafe and chatted while we ate.
one of the main topics was relationships. specifically, how it's difficult to maintain one. 私は今の彼と付き合い始めて、3年半くらいになるけど、友達はあんまり長続きしないみたい。so we were discussing how it'd hard to make relationships last. i think she's a bit aggravated because now that we're done with college, it's time to start thinking about our future, including a career and family. そうなると、今付き合う人が生涯の伴侶になるかも知れないでしょ？だから、そういうの考えると焦るんだと思う。わからなくもないけどね。
but i think marriage is still a long way off. at least for me. a lot of people marry in their thirties now and there really is no need to rush. take things slow at first. お互いのことを良く知ることが大切だね。we also discussed how important communication is. she asked if it ever gets boring between the bf and i but i think that just highlights the importance of communication. お互いにコミュニケーションを取って、新しい発見や趣味などを見つけるといいかもね。there needs to be an effort by both parties in order to make things last. take interest in each others' hobbies and try to find new things to do together. i'm sure you'll be able to find the one, the one that'll make you smile through tough times and always be by your side. just keep trying. i know you and i know someone will love you for who you are, just like i do. keep your chin up girlie :)

今日は姉と祖母が風邪なので、お医者さんに行ってきました。man, it was freaking far... they used to be a lot closer but they moved. and where they moved is really ghetto.... a bit scary. but not much other choice right now so had to go.
got there around 10:20. 祖母は初めてだから、資料を色々書かされた。病歴から保険の資料とか色々。annoying but necessary process, i guess. but man, even though we had an appointment, it took them nearly an hour to call us in. -_- 前々から遅かったけど、ホントひどいね。絶対長すぎると思う。まぁ、医者が医者全部そうでは無いと思うが、だから医者ってキライ。i rarely go to the doctors. as far as i can remember, i've only been to the doctor's a handful of times. and most of it is my pediatrician. for vaccinations and stuff. 後はほとんど行ったこと無い。別にいいよね？行かなくても．．．一応健康だし？but yea, i really don't like going to the doctors. but then again, who does??

it's christmas!! and i'm sitting at home doing nothing.... well, not really nothing. been watching a lot of doramas. ギルティー、黄金の豚、ナサケの女、パーフェクトレポート、などなど。あと、バラエティーも結構。クイズヘキサゴン、Happy Music、ヒミツの嵐ちゃん、などなど。so many things to watch, so little time. but i have to watch them in order to clear up space on my hard drive. lol
さて、今年のクリスマスは祖母が一緒です。this entails some good things and bad things. good = my mom isn't as annoying and she doesn't get mad as much. reason being that she kinda spends a lot of time complaining about my grandma. そんなにイヤなら、呼ばなきゃいいのにね。bad = my grandma is annoying as well. or, it's tough being nice to her since no one else really is. 誰もあまり相手しないから暇みたいだし。ugh...
it also sucks cuz both my grandma and my sister are sick. and now, my mom is complaining that she might be getting sick as well. ホントうるさいんですけどぉ。and bc of all the coughing going on, it's hard to get a good nights' rest. *sigh* あと、今年のクリスマスは彼には会えないので、さびしいです。家のことで忙しいのはわかるけど、あんまりほっておくと浮気しちゃうぞぉ。ま、でも、手作りのクリスマスカードをくれたので、何気に満足です。えへへ。

for lunch today, my mom took me to the restaurant Tamon in the Miyako Hotel in Little Tokyo. あるのは知ってたけど、初めて行った。あんまり、ホテルに入ってるレストランって行かないじゃん？
一応和食屋さんみたいで、色々メニューがあった。my mom recommended i get the chirashi since she's seen it before and thought it looked pretty good. considering the fact that my mom doesn't like raw fish, you wonder how such raw fish would look appetizing to her.... ま、なんにせよ、ちらしを頼むことに。i look through the menu and find it. it costs a whopping $20!! :O 高くない？ウチ今余裕無いから躊躇したけど、お母さんが頼めって五月蝿いから結局ちらしにすることに。
目の前に運ばれてきたちらしはなんと、2段重ね。すごくね？めっちゃ豪華で贅沢。there was quite a few different kinds of fish. 鯛、はまち、マグロ、サーモン、いくら、鯖、などなど。一番うれしかったのは雲丹！i love sea urchin. and this one was definitely good!! ものすごく贅沢な昼食になりましたね。
