January 2006 Archives

In my defense, I drew the guy while riding a taxi.. not that I'd be better when I am not riding a thing... Have a fantabulous Tuesday/Wednesday!

I flew from Sapporo today. I went there yesterday to enjoy Sapporo beer and snowboarding. It was fantastique. But getting up early to come back to Tokyo isn't great...Anyway, some notes here...
1. I went to get my hair trimmed. When I go to a hair salon, I ask for a less cute guy or a lady to do my hair. You know how close the hair stylist gets when doing a sensitive part of the hair to trim??? I'd be nervous if the cute guy did that.

2.

I like commuting by train. I saw this cute guy standing by the door and I was 2 doors away from him. He was facing me and I was facing him. The subtle cruising was going on. Maybe, I am wrong. While giving him a impaling stare, my i-Pod started playing "Pop-Star" by Ken Hirai. I wanna be your pop star... Oh yes, I do. A gay cruising moment when listening to a gay song by a gay singer. Was this some sort of a sign?

3.

We had a meeting with this engineer from the headquarters. There was the fatal operational mistake by him. He pretends to know IT stuff and never admits his mistakes. (I was almost crucified for what he did last June.) Anyway, there were others in the room so I acted civil. I went outside to get everybody coffee. That's a group secretary job. But I did it as I am very nice. Um..poisoning him is illegal. So I put soy sauce in his coffee. Ew. I brought everyone coffee and he sipped. "This coffee is funny". I said "Really? The water here in Tokyo is different from Boston. That must be it." No, it's not the water, dumb ass.

Anyway, it's another week. I wish you a fantabulous week!

It's another clear windy chilly day. I am trying to grow my hair longer so it's hard to deal with a windy day. But thankfully, we don't get a lot of windy days like Kansas does :P While living in Kansas for two years, I gave up on the idea of styling my hair pretty because that's impossible as it's always a windy day there. I so do not miss there. Anyway, I went to Ebisu which is another hang out area in Tokyo. Ebisu is kinda...I don't know... not "Central Tokyo"... so I don't hang out here much. It's very interesting that this area is called "Ebisu" because Ebisu is one of 7 Lucky Gods. This God, Ebisu, is the god of Good Fortune. Ergo, this area should be very fortunate/lucky. By the by, my favorite beer, Sapporo, launched the factory way back in the 19th century here, and they made Tokyo original Beer and named it "Yebisu Beer". Ever since then, this area was officially called "Ebisu". The area named after the God. But it's not a spiritual magical place at all :) Now, compared with my favorite Sapporo Beer, Yebisu beer is very very thick and smooth and it's good to drink it in winter but I don't think i could enjoy it very much in summer as it's very rich. Anywho, Ebisu is somewhere I'd enjoy for dinner out. Now, I was supposed to meet a friend in front of this station but he said he would be late. My hair got all messed up with strong winds. So I decided to wait inside. I had no idea why but by the time my friend arrived, I finished three glasses of beer. I think I've been drinking too much beer lately. I should cut back... of course, I did drink another three or four glasses at dinner.... huh... I thought I wanted awesome abs instead of beer belly... But my 29-inch waist pants are not tight yet. :) Have a splendid weekend!

I didn't have to make this as a flash file but I did. The theme of this blog is always "non-exciting" scribble.... Left arrow doesn't work because I didn't bother assigning the instance... enjoy my sloppy flash! By the way, I am not at work tonight. That's a miracle! But I am not going out. Sometimes, it's okay to stay home and do cozy things inside when it's chilly outside, right? I mean I pay my kinda expensive rent but I don't stay home enough to pay off. So I should stay home looong every once in a while. I think I will go to bed before midnight. :) No, I am not spending a sad time. It's fantabulous I could go to bed before midnight! I hope your weekend goes well, too! You have a fantabulous weekend!

In English, it's common to ask people how you are in the beginning of the conversation, no? Back in an English class at junior high, we were taught the answer to that question is "I am fine. Thank you. and you?". No matter how shitty you are, the answer is always "I am fine. Thank you. And you?" That's the only answer I was taught. I think this "how are you" rule I was taught still haunts me. I thought this was the silver bullet answer to every "how are you?" question. When I was an exchange student in Portland, Oregon, I, for the first time in my life, got to know there were other answers to the question. That was the biggest culture shock as well as people didn't take shoes off inside the house. I didn't even think there were other ways to say "I am fine." I also realized from my personal experience that "how are you?" doesn't mean they really want to know how you are. It's just a starter for the conversation. But we say it anyway. Today, when I got a call from a friend, I was grumpy as I was programming some application... This magical "How are you?" question was asked by him. So I said "Do you really really want to know how I am?" I broke the rule. I should have said "I am fine, thank you. And you?" just like I was taught back in school... I am so sorry, Kirk! So how are you, today? On a different note, I was extremely stressed this morning so I bought this on a lunch break even though I didn't plan on buying it.... I said good-bye to my iPod Mini... I think my complusive puchase behavior is worse than Will's. (no offense, sweetie)... I didn't even research on it like he does... Anyway, I am gonna enjoy this. You have a gorgeous Thursday! um.... did I ask you how you are?

Isn't this delicious? As some of you already know, I won this chevy last month. The chevy was delivered yesterday. It looks better than I thought it would. I am so over the moon. However, I cannot ride it yet. I need to register this for a police bike thingy. I can ride it without the registration but if I am ever stopped by a cop, it will take longer to prove this is not a stolen bike... I am going to commute to work by this fantabulous Chevy from next week. I hadn't owned a bike for a long time. I am a chevy/bike owner. yay. A tiny serious concern is brought up here by myself though. My butt needs to look more delicious. Because people riding it tend to lean forward, their asses get more attention than usual whether they admit it or not. I asked my personal trainer to change my program to focus on my butt at the gym today. After the workout...wow, it hurts like mother fudger. Just 3 sets of 3 different buttock excercises do this? I am glad it's working. I mean I'd love to have a perfect tight pretty butt. Is this thought extreme? I am glad it's still winter. I can cover my butt with the coat right now before my butt is going to make its debut in Spring when I don't have to wear a coat. Not that I want everbody's attention or anything. I just want a cute little butt that goes great with my Chevy. I sound so stupid but I do wanna look pretty when I ride it.... okay.... You have a fantabulous day/night!

The photo is Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office Building in my work district. I took this photo when we had a lunch break. A friend of mine who works in the same district asked me whether I could have lunch with him. Surprisingly, I was able to afford my time for a decent lunch time. Even though I have to renew my passport and my international driver's license pretty soon, (meaning I have to take a photo of myself and I need to take extra caution on my skin to look best-est as I am not photogenic) I had greasy lunch today. That's not good for my pores on my face. But we went to KFC anyway. KFC lunch here is a little different so it's not as pathetic as you might imagine. But it's not defenitely fancy, either. :) Anyway, for your information, my favorite animal meat is either lamb or chicken. When we just sat after ordering our lunch, this question popped in my head. I couldn't hold it to myself so I had to ask a friend of mine. "How many chickens do you think they have to kill in one day just for this store to accomodate every order they get? " I also fooled around with a chicken leg by saying "cock-a-doodle-doo". But I didn't really gross me out with the idea but a friend of mine lost his appetite. I still enjoyed my chicken though. I am so inappropriate.... I am going to hell for sure.... Have a fantastique day/night!

This is the photo I took while I ran in the morning. 6 in the morning. The day is obviously getting longer. There were no clouds. The sky was so beautiful. The snow on the street might have gotten dirtier but there are some other beautiful things as always no? like my pure soul. hahahaha. Anyway, I wish my camera could capture what I saw in the morning exactly but this is the furthest I could get with the camera...

1.	When I go to an art exhibition, and when they serve food and champagne, I get extremely nervous because I may ruin one of the paintings with the champagne.... I don't have to pick up food, but I need to have a glass of fabulous champagne as an accessory to make me look good. As a result, I get hammered. This happened yesterday.
2.	I got extremely nervous today when the most gorgeous barista touched my hand accidentaly when he passed me the americano I ordered. Wow, I touched him! okay..... that's why I am a freaky 30 year old guy.
3.	When I am in the crowded elevator, and a beautiful lady is in front of myself, I get nervous. Not because I turned straight. I don't want her to see me as a pervert by me breathing down on her neck. So I hold my breath for the entire ride....

Oh..... it's really freaking cold these days. I hope you have a fantabulous week!

Japan stopped importing beef from U.S.A. again for the second time, yesterday. Please do not hate us, American farmers. We like beef without spinal cord. Anyway, It was snowing. More than weather forecast people estimated. We have snow several days a year. Tokyo is less busier when it snows. People stay at home and public transportation is delayed. I got up at 7 and went to the gym because running outside when it snows is not a great idea. I drove to the gym as I didn't want to deal with ruined shoes. Then, I was supposed to go to work to finish creating a report due on Monday. I parked my car near my work but suddenly, I realized I could blame on snow if I didn't work. Tokyoites are not that used to snow. So I decided to call my friends and went for bowling, drinking beers, and skating. It was really fun. You know what goes fantabulously on a snowy day? Sapporo Beer!!! So I am here at home and feeling a little guilty I didn't work... I have to do my report tomorrow though I had a great time on a snowy day. My shoes didn't get ruined. I didn't run into a pole or anything when I drove. I didn't fall when I was skating. This is the unexpectedly fun day without any work! Thanks Snow! :) You have a fantabulous weekend!

I had to make a short trip to Kagoshima for some work. Kagoshima is the southern most place of Kyushu island. Anyway, I had to leave home at 5a.m. and came back to the office at 12p.m. How bizarre is that.... I usually come home late and the average amount of time I sleep a day these days would be somewhere around 2 hours. Nope, that's not good at all.... I know. In fact, I could go to bed at 12 and slept for 5 hours but I didn't do that last night. I should have. But I was extremely interested in entertaining myself three times in two hours. So I did entertain myself. It was good. As a result, I only slept for 1 and a half hours. There is nothing wrong with me doing that, is there? I don't feel guilty and no regrets. Anyway, I had to catch the first flight to Kagoshima. It was very cloudy in Tokyo this morning. Gray sky and chilly wind do make me sad.... Once the airplane was above thick clouds, tada-. It's always sunny up there. The warm sunlight coming through the window made me fall asleep in no time. It was a peaceful moment. It was a dreamy cozy nap up until I hit my head hard against the window and dribbled from my mouth when the plane was landing. I love the airplane nap however I wake up. Anyway, it's finally a friday! you have a fantastic weekend! I will work hard tomorrow ! Oh, I hear it's snowing tomorrow in Tokyo.... I hope it will be pretty. :) Good weekend!

Please click the photo if it's too small. I know I am very exaggerating on this post. I am cool but it was a little surprise anyway. Aging gracefully is good, you know :) I want that. I promised myself that I'd sleep more! You have a good evening!

So this is the front cover of this week's Newsweek Japan. The title says "Gay in Japan". They focused on how "Gay" is recognized in Japan. This came as a shock to me a little bit. To be honest, gay is something we don't really recognize or discuss here in japan except when they usually make fun of it or get disgusted by it. Unlike Western Countries, we don't really admit it exists. It's like we keep it under the rug and ignore it. It's quite different. Gay version of "making love" is not illegal like some other parts of the world. But it doesn't mean it's accepted. I am pretty comfy with my sexuallity and many friends and family members know I am a big homo but I am not out at work because there is this idea that people are incomplete unless they are married. Ergo, a lot of homos tend to be married to be fake stable husbands or wives. I could never do that.... If I came out at work, poeple would go "ew" and ignore me and get de-promoted at work or something. But I don't mind if I am outed by someone.... Anyway, that's the idea of the "gayness" here in Tokyo. Even though the article wasn't that great, I am glad "homos" are brought up on their main focus for this week. It's kinda surprisng. Yay for a baby little step. :) Okay... did I mumble too much???? On a different note, in this week's edition, they talked about a computer that only costs $100 targetted for children primarily. I SO WANT THIS even though I am not a pretty child. It's so cute! Pretty pretty please! You have a PRETTY day!

1. Since my work was unusually slow which never happened, I went skating in the evening. It had been awhile. I wanted to look "good". Besides, I was a pretty cute figure skater in my head. I did "Waltz jump". a.k.a., triple axel in my head. I landed successfuly!! I did that again as I was confident, I fell HARD. A frined of mine laughed so hard... I was just damn lucky for the first time.... It still hurts... No more stupid imaginary figure skating.

2.	I walked outside in the morning to get a cup of coffee at starbucks. I looked above and took this photo. Is it just me? but I tend to loose a balance when I look above too much.
3.	I haven't trimmed unwanted hair on my legs but went swimming today. That's a crime?
4.	The reason why "3" is because I haven't dated for ages.
5.	When I run in the morning, snot comes out as a natural consequence. Well, that's not strange. But I kind of like it when I am at this point where I have to decide whether I should wipe it off with my tissue or I can still sniff without it. uh-huh, I am a weirdo
6.	I was able to leave work and had fun with friends because I decided to act being sick. No urgent tasks today. They can wait. Yeah.

I will not be able to blog until the midnight tomorrow but I will try to post it. :) Have a wonderful day/night!

Some people go to a fantabulous restaurant for fantabulous dinner. Maybe, with champagne for a special occasion. Some couple may enjoy a fantastic view from the top of the building while they have wonderful dinner. It may be pricey but it's sometimes worth it. On the other hand, this is my usual lately. I sometimes do not have time to have dinner.... well, a lot of times. But I try not to skip dinner as I may faint. To be honest, I am not that fragile but it's not good to skip dinner. I may loose muscle I gained. Keeping eating habits irregular helps me have an awful skin tone, and I may look older and more fatigued than I need to. I do know that. Sometimes, I don't have time to pick up my dinner. Luckily, I picked it up tonight at Seven Eleven. This is my dinner which is not anywhere close to become "fantabulous". This shows you I am a workaholic... From left, Oolong tea, Potato Sandwich, Chicken Pasta salada, and Aloe yogurt (for my skin, of course). It's not tastey at all but not disgusting either like the sandwich you could pick up at some gas station in some country (I am not gonna say which). In my future, I'd like to say "Honey, I am home" and get to have some fantabulous dinner with the fantabulous husband. In the meantime, I am having this not-so-great dinner. Am I sad? Well, I try not to be.... (-_-;) Please try to have decent dinner unlike me! Good day! Back to work...

An office building at night on a weekend is very spooky. Anyway, there was a mild earth quake earleir today. I was in the office (Yes, I am still working ...) I didn't scream like a high school girl as it was small. I was in the middle of peeing. This was tough. The tough decision to make. Whether I should have kept peeing or stopped peeing. But it was where I could not stop peeing. It was just right in the middle of the process. It was scary. Not because of the earthquake. It was scary because of the idea I had there. What if this building collaspes by an earthquake while I am peeing and my dead body is found ultimately? My weener still sticking out of my pants? That would be too embarrassing and my family, frineds, or anyone should not ID me. So I am hoping no earthquake anymore while I am in the middle of making #1 or #2. I think I would like to die pretty when it happens. Just a thought... Speaking of an earthquake, I think people visiting from where earthquakes are not observed should definitely experience one or two while they are here in Tokyo. It would be an interesting experience for sure. It's one of the inevitable thingies if you happen to be here in Japan. :) Anyway, today's lesson. "Try not to stay in the bathroom too loong" Have a fantabulous weekend!

I added several links. And the latest link is to Kang Fu Twinkie from Natick, Rhode Island. (Did you know there is a city named "Natick" in Massachusetts, too? Although his nick is not the most brilliant one, I love the way he writes things honestly. I am hooked. :) Anyway, "Sakura" means "Cherry Blossom" in Japanese. Even though this is the coldest winter in the last 60 years here in Japan according to the weather people and even though it's chilly today, spring has come already?? Well, it has at least to a convenience store. I saw Kit-kat Spring limited edition. "Cherry Blossom Flavor" at a usual seven eleven which by the way no longer has the guy whom I accidentally hit on when I was wasted the other day. In Spring here in Japan, Cherry Blossoms are very common and cliche. Cherry Blossom flavored rice cake, Cherry Blossom flavored hot water with a petal for the wedding (it's just salty hot water with a slight Cherry Blossom flavor anyway. I hate it when I have to have it), stuff like that. Honestly, I am not a big fan of anything Cheery Blossom Flavored. But I had to pick up this weird Kit-kat as I was very curious. I just had it.... I am so speechless. I really am because I just can't believe the Nestle marketing people gave it a go on this fucking disgusting kit-kat. And I barely say an F word. . The taste was so horrible!!! I only had a small piece of it. I had to wash it down with strong coffee. Thank God, I didn't throw up here in the office. If you like Cherry Blossom flavor, this may be the perfect Kit-Kat for ya. But I don't really recommend it. I so miss Green Tea Kit-Kat. Anyway, I wish you the most fantabulous Friday the 13th!

Please click the photo if it's hard to read. It's weird I didn't draw the profile of the face but you can still tell it's the face, can't you? Anyway, I had a great curry dinner box. Yeah, it's kinda sad compared to fantabulous dinner but I couldn't have lunch so this curry dinner box was VERY fantabulous! Don't miss lunch like I did! Really. You have a fantabulous day/night!

First, I feel like listening to "Let's Get It Started" by Black Eyed Peas while blogging. I also feel like "HA"-ing while listening to it if you know what I mean. Let me start the music here first.... I should shut my office door. okay...done. Second of all, I really have to apologize for my weird behavior. Smokers in Tokyo, I am sorry if I seem to stalk you. In fact, I am not stalking. When you wait for the green signal to cross at the cross walk, I have to stand right behind you to smell the smoke. When you smoke while walking, I have to follow you. If you hear the deep breathing from behind, that's me trying to inhale smoke coming out of you as much as I can, not to smell your perfume or do anything stalk-ish. I used to think it's so not cool for those who smoke while walking in a crowded area. But I don't care now. Please smoke as much as you can. Man, this is hard.... Anyway, I had to attend this tech conference. On my way back here to the office, I saw the amazing twilight. It may not be as beautiful as the one I saw in Kansas but it was still beautiful. Unfortunately, my photo didn't turn out good. I know the days are getting longer once we passed the winter solstice. But it's still winter definitely. Surprisingly, over the last few days, it's been warmer than usual. 10 Degrees Celsius = 50 Degrees Fahrenheit for High. 2 DegsC = 35 DegsF for Low here in Tokyo, Japan. I feel like going somewhere tropical but that's gotta wait.... okay, back to work. you have a fantabulous day, today!

The photo has nothing to do with what I blogged today. It's just the photo of the subway station I took in the morning. This post makes me a weirdo but I am not ashamed of it. Anyway....I am sure every one of us has a moment when s/he is proud of her/himself. You don't really say it out loud but there is a time you feel like you want to applaud yourself. It can be a small thing. Since I've been going through an extremely difficult time (a.k.a. quitting smoking), I need to be happier to keep my mental health condition well. Coffee does make me happy when it's an early morning. I keep telling myself if I buy myself an espresso machine, an americano (hot water & espresso) can be easily fixed by myself and save money. But, I haven't done it and still go to a starbucks and buy a 380 Yen = U.S.$3.22 = 2.67 Euros Americano. It makes me happy anyway. The other thing that makes me happy just happened 30 minutes ago. That's when I dumped a perfect long solid piece of poop in a very short time without staying in the stall more than 3 minutes. I feel healthy and so good. I am this close that i want to share this joy with everybody else in the bathroom or in the office. But I don't say a thing about it. I still have moral. What's this magical feeling? This satisfaction you'd get after dumping a perfect looong solid form of poop. I feel so happy. I am sure some of you feel the same way when it happens but we don't really say that out loud. Well, my ex used to report how it was after making #2 every fudging morning!. Anyway, sorry this is an awkward post but I just couldn't feel so much happier at the moment. I am a weirdo.....You have a happy Tuesday!

First of all, this is the last day of the three day extended weekend. It hasn't been productive but at least I didn't have to work today. That's something.
Second of all, I was told by my supervisor I should probably shave off my beard. I haven't shaved since Christmas and I am JUST trying my new look. But he told me I looked too scary, and my team members are not comfortable..... Really? I mean it's just a fudging beard. It doesn't change my personality...does it? Having a beard doesn't automatically make me be a criminal, does it? I thought our company was casual about it....
Third of all, from today, I started putting the patch I got from a friend of mine in a tropical place. So far, I've been cool except for frequent jiggling my knee....and a lot more coffee.... I think I am going to make an appointment with my dentist to get rid of smoking stains. But I wonder if it helps since I've been having coffee all the time. Coffee would go great with a cigarrette though... ugh....
Fourth of all, a friend of mine told me, I have not done gay things lately. Does that make me less gay? anyway.... You have a fantabulous day/night!

Since I was not fully awake, I guess I have a thicker accent and it makes it more difficult to understand me? I hope you get what I said..... For the first time, I embedded the sound file instead of linking it. I hope it won't take too much time for you to load this. If it does take freaking time, please let me know. I will change it to the way it used to be. Thanks. Happy Saturday!

I get a little uncomfy these days when I don't do drawing posts, or flash thingies because I get to write things in English....The horrible English 101 class back in college curses me still.... I have no idea why but I took this photo while I was on a "SMOKING" break. Obviously, I haven't quit smoking yet.... This is the photo of a revolving door of the building. No, revolving doors aren't anything neo-Japanese at all. I know. There are many buildings with revolving doors here in Tokyo. However, virtually, none of them is available for use. You have to go through other usual automatic doors instead of revolving ones. Why? A year ago or so, a 5 year old kid played with it and his head got stuck in-between under the lousy mother's supervision and he got killed of course. Ever since then, most (I say most) revolving doors are no longer available. Neither is this door. But revolving doors are still there. Will there be used again? Speaking of doors, I noticed there are way too many automatic doors here in Japan. Because we don't know how to hold a manual door for the person right behind ourselves. (nope. I am kidding but sometimes, it's true.) But I guess we try to minimize the number of opportunities to touch shared thingies? I have absolutely no idea. In conclusion, revolving doors are unavailable even though they are there. And there are way too many automatic doors here. There, that's neo-Japanese. On a different note, I am currently going commando... I spilled juice all over my lap badly..... I realized I didn't stock a pair of underwear in my office drawer... I feel so unsecure now.... Geez. On the other hand, you have a fantabulous Friday!

It's very cloudy today.... I actually have nothing to report....but I thought I'd just scribble some things that came to my mind today.

1.	Whenever "Shake it off" by Mariah Carey is playing on my iPod, I tend to walk on tiptoe by putting my hand on my hips in a subtle way. Of course, I do this when no one is looking. At least, when I think no one is looking at me.... (i.e. in the server room) Ergo, I am a 30 year old freak.
2.	On the other hand, when I have to use a screw driver on a server/ computer at work, I feel so masculine or I delude myself into believing I am too masculine. It's just one tiny screw driver. But it's THAT big deal for me.
3.	This year, my raise for annual salary is 35%. Yay! But I will no longer get paid for overtime...Boo
4.	Should I pronounce "Either" "ee-ther"? or "eye-ther"? I pronounce it "eye-ther" as I think it sounds more classy. But I don't keep my pinky up when I say it.
5.	When I hear "Hi, this is Sean", I automatically spell his name "Shawn" instead of "Sean". When I look at the name "Sean", it never crosses my mind that you actually pronounce it "Shawn" instead of "Scene". Where the hell is an H??? This is a hard name for me. But my name is weird for non-Japanese anyway.... Ok, Sean wins...

Alrighty, back to work. You have a fantastic Wednesday!

This is the last day of my New Year's Holiday. I will have to go back to work tomorrow.... ugh. Thankfully, if I work Thursday and Friday, we have another three day weekend due to Coming of Age day on Monday... I got a call from a shopping whore friend of mine and went to Muji which is a fancy shop that you can pickup stationaries, clothes, kitchen stuff, etc. "Muji" is short for Mujirushi which means "Non-label".... This Muji is the place I should be avoiding the most for shopping... But this shopping whore took me there... It's like a blackhole. You get sucked into the shop and can never get out without buying things. The problem is I usually buy more than I plan. I am sure some things I bought won't be probably necessary but I bought them anyway... Yeah... I have that blood in me... If you click the top photo, you get to see what I bought. So this is the first shopping this year. I tend to spend a lot of time in the stationary section. They have a lot of pretty and cool thingies. The greatest thing of all is Chocolate Tart. Their chocolate tart is not expensive at all but it's one of the greatest sweets for chocolate enthusiasts. If you happen to go to Muji and like chocolate, please pick it up. :-) The problem is they should launch their business in North America as they were successful in Asia and London. Don't you think? Anyway, happy 4th day of Year 2006!

Nothing interesting to report. It's still a day off today. I had to have Osechi in the morning with my family. Thank God, it's the last day to have Osechi. I have no idea who invented this tradition but having New Year's Meal for three days in a row isn't fun. Now, I am so ready to get back in a better shape. After that, I rushed to cafe. I forgot I was supposed to meet a friend of mine who just returend from Europe. Well, she is a flight attendant so she gets to go there quite a lot. I was 10 minutes late but she wasn't there. I found out her flight got delayed. So I had to wait there. I should have known as I was one of them before..... But it's better not to plan a date or anything with a flight attendant/ a pilot to meet immediately after the flight. (no offense, Will. but you know how it is.) So I was at cafe and didn't have anything with me to kill my time. So I draw some things on the paper napkin which doesn't really absorb anything well and "what's the point of being called "paper napkins anyway?" sort of napkins. They are not the most brilliant napkins available on this planet for sure. Anyway, if you happen to care to see what I drew, click the photo. Though this is the third napkin as I had a plenty of time. I waited for her for 1 and a half hours which wasn't too bad. While waiting, I saw the most super good looking guy walking his dog. How could he be that pretty? while he was pretty, I am having a bad hair day... huh.... You have a fantabulous Tuesday/ Wednesday!

I hope you are doing fabulous on the second day of year 2006. :-) I am so willing to buy "How to be a better kisser" if there is any book available. Not that I suck at it but I'd like to be better at it.... Click the photo if it's hard to read, please. On a different note, whenever a song by The Killers is on air, I have to turn the radio off immediately. I can't stand them. It's worse than Country Music. Is there something wrong with me?...anyway, happy day!

Happy New Year! I sent a scribbled e-card to those who left me a comment(s) and e-mailed me. I hope I included everyone ! For those who haven't received, here is the link to the card. Anyway, I got majorly boozed but didn't hit on that 7-11 guy because he wasn't there last night..... It's the new year's day. So many traditional thingies to go through. I seriously hate them. I had to wear Hakama which is a Japanese traditional clothe. Well, remember Tom Cruise wearing Japanese stuff in the movie, Last Samurai? Hakama is like that. It's no fun to wear it on a freezing day. To get you an idea, it's like wearing a skirt. It's not appropriate to say this but I feel "what if someone see my underwear from the slit? or stuff like that." The unsecure feelings I get by wearing it makes me oddly excited. Yeah, I think I am sick. Anyway, I went to the shrine temple and the church with my family. Nothing major. Just a lot of traditional thingies.... The photo is Osechi which is a Japanese traditional New Year's meal. I couldn't capture everything but everything was fixed by my mother who was way stressed when she made them for the last 2 days. Now I think I am heading back home as I don't need to stay at my parents' for the rest of the day and watch porn or something. I hope you are doing fantabulous and enjoy your new year's day!
