January 2007 Archives

When I was a secretary, I liked looking at my boss's schedule in the morning to imagine what kind of a fantabulous life he had. Unlike his, my schedule is not fantabulous but I thought I'd share it as this was crazy. My advice to you is don't get too drunk on Monday. Don't empty 6 bottles if there are only three including yourself... two bottles per person.... Besides, I did something really embarrassing in front of people... I will live quietly for the rest of this week...
Have a fantabulous day!!

This is the photo of the street in Harajuku yesterday. Harajuku is relatively close to my home but I only come here to get my hair cut (as my hair stylist works here). I don't hang out here like I did when I was in my teens. Even though Gwen Stefani said "Harajuku Girls" in her song, "Rich girl", I have no idea what "Harajuku" girls are. Girls who come here? Anyway, the reason why I don't come here is that I am too old to fit in. To me, Harajuku is where you go to when you are in your teens and early 20s. When I was in high school, I used to come here a lot. There is no restriction about this area so you can go there anytime you want but I and my friends feel we are too old to hang out there. :-) Unfortunately, against my belief, I was told to meet a friend of mine here in the middle of Harajuku yesterday. Since my friend was running late, I decided to wait for him at cafe. Usually, I have something to kill my time like books, notepad to sketch, knitting stuff, or a computer. But I had none of these. So I just looked at people walking by. Then it hit me. The last day of my work will come up less than two months, but I have absolutely no plan what I will do after.... Even though my last day at work is in March, I technically resign in the mid of May because I have two months worth of paid vacation. So I get paid without working for the last two months from March:-) That may be why I am not in a hurry to come up with what I will do next. But since I don't have a sugar daddy, I have to do something eventually. My project for this week. Figure out what to do next. :-) You have a fantabulous week!

You see there are so many mysterious things that cannot be explained scientifically. I have encountered minor mysteries recently and they would be mind-numbingly boring for others but I am personally intriged. Here are some.
1... I try not to get wasted when I go drinking alone. When I was in Cambridge earlier this month, I didn't drink too much so I was very concious and made back to the hotel room safely. But when I got up next morning, I felt sharp pain on my middle finger tip. It was a sharp cut by glass or something. But I don't even remember touching borken glass. I had no idea how I got it.. Since the cut was rather deep, there is a scar still on my finger. And I thought "what if somebody intentionally cut my finger with a sharp piece of glass with some unknown virus on it?" Should I contact X-file people? huh... Less Jack Daniels next time.
2...I ordered an americano at Starbucks today. The person who ordered "Double tall mocha with a lot of crap" got his order first even though he was behind me. Why would espresso and hot water take longer? The mysterious thingy is I waited for my order for more than 5 mins.
3...I didn't eat anything weird yesterday but I am EXTREMELY gassy today. That's mysterious.... I managed to release some while I was swimming at the gym. I had to To make my path more bubbly, I had to butterfly not to let others notice what I was doing in there. For the record, it's not like I released my liquids in the pool!!!..... Good day!

1...If there was food that would fly you away so high and let you see the heaven, this must be it. This was my lunch today. Atlantic Lobster and crab tomato soup with oragnic rice by Soup Stock Tokyo. This lunch looks so sad on the surface and is not cheap but it's totally worth it. I am sure I had a little tiny orgasm after having this.
2...When a customer orders "vodka soda", why on earth would a bartender mix vodka with SPRITE??? When I tasted it, that was the most unpleasant moment last night.
3...It's very commmon around this area to see a caucasian expat (who only wants to get laid with a foxy asian girl) hanging out with a very young foxy Japanese girl (who wants more than sex. maybe a commited relationship). Anyway, this foxy Japanese girl looked so proud because she got a sugar daddy? Also, He looked so happy coz he was about to score the girl who is way out of his league. I thought she could do better than that though... Anyway, we, Japanese, have a lot of problems to pronounce English words. I do misprounce things, too. HOWEVER, can a foxy girl not repeat "Let's take shit here" loudly at a quiet restaurant? I am sure she wanted to mean "let's take a seat here". But the expat didn't seem to mind as he could still score her... On the other hand, I almost died from pasta choking fiasco and the soup came out of my nose......sigh.
You have a fantabulous day! :-)

To defend myself, I didn't say having a thick accent is bad. But I thought it would be cool if you sound more understandable. That's all. :-) Happy Week!!

I think I mentioned that this year would be pretty bad for me according to the fortune teller. It's been three weeks since the new year has begun. Here are some "bad" things that already happened to me.
1.... My 5 day old iPod was stolen when I left it in the hotel room in Cambridge, MA. They go "We are not responsible for your belongings unless they are in the safe box, sir". I totally expected that but still.... damn.
2.... I lost a long time friend. Well, I actually decided to lose one. I think I made the right decision even though I really didn't want to do so.
Regardless of things I have lost, I haven't lost my virginity-for-this-year yet
3.... My fly was wide open from Boston to Detroit the other day. I didn't even realize it.
Yet, I haven't lost my virginity-for-this-year even though my fly was saying "come on in"!
4.... I broke my pinky after the too over-confident 360s in the air while snowboarding. I pictured myself as an X-treme snowboarder in my head. That was only my dream. :-(
5.... Shampoo bottle explosion incident in my gym bag today. Washing my speedos in the bathroom at work is something I didn't want to...
Anyway, i still believe good things are on their ways as well so I am not too sad yet. You have a fantabulous happy weekend! So shall I even if I have to work... Ta-ta-.

I've been doing this flash slide thingy a lot latey. I should stop... but I thought it would be convenient this way. Anyway, have a super gorgeous day!!

I didn't have to use 4 slides to explain my favorite cafe but I did :-) have a fantabulous day!!

Brrrrr! It's FREEZING here but I love coldness actually :-) Too bad that I didn't finish the scarf before I got here but I didn't feel like knitting in Hawaii, you know. Anyway, have a fantabulous week!!

I make fudging sure that I will have a good time here but I try not to forget the fortune teller's advice that this year is not good. There were already some unpleasant incidents during this trip. I'd better watch after me! Anyway, Have a fantabulous weekend! So will I!

I know I haven't explained it well in details but basically, I just thought it was weird and strange and creepy that they do that so I ended it. :-( Anyway, on the bright side, there is a pervy photo on the sixth slide... Well, I had to take that photo!!! Have a fantabulous day!

I've been extremely busy earlier today.... why am I so busy with work on vacation? Is this vacation? huh... Have a fantabulous day!

I had to work over the weekend but I am still working on another thingy.. this has to stop!!! OH NO! anyway Have a fantabulous day!

Something unpleasant happened over the weekend. I will blog about it tomorrow... But I am still happy. Have a fantabulous week!

It occurred to me after creating this mind-numbing boring slides (I am sorry I didn't take photos and all I did yesterday after arriving at the hotel was sleep.), I realized I didn't mention the name of the city... My body clock has been adjusted and I am going out for lunch with this person (no, he is so straight. Thank you very much. it's more like a business thingy?) I will upload some more with a little more interesting (but still non-exciting) photos!Have a fantabulous FIRST weekend of year 2007!

So this is supposed to be the last day of the year end/new year's holiday. I am finally free from the family traditional event thingies... Yay. I assume many of us go back to work from tomorrow. Yet, January 8th is another national holiday so we get a three day weekend right after working for a day. That's rediculous so I thought I was going to take a day off on the 5th. Better yet, why not take another week off to delay my first working day as I really really really have to use my paid vacation days before I leave in three months. :-) So I am vacationing from today for about a week. :-) I requested my vacation two weeks ago so this is totally okay and I am not a hard worker anymore anyway. :-) I am at the airport waiting to board the plane. I believe I will change the clock on this web later when I arrive there. If there is anything interesting, I will post something from the destination. Signing off from Tokyo, Japan. :-) Have a fantabulous Thursday!

I am sure this is boring but hey. I just got back from my parents' so this is the only thing I can kinda share. Now I am relaxing with my boyfriend, Jack. Jack Daniels of course. :-) Have a fantabulous Tuesday!!!!

The reason why I put "Neo-Japanese" as the category of this post is because this year is supposed to be the year of the pig outside of Japan while it is the year of the wild boar here in Japan. :-) It's Year 2007 over here even if some parts are still year 2006. :-) I was going to send you e-mail with this card to all of the visitors who have commented last year on my blog. But it turns out the e-mail address organizing is way too much work so I decided to share it here on this web. This was meant to be delivered to all of you. Sorry. :-( I am lazy. .


I wish you a fantabulous new year!!!
