On Monday (my last day of vacation T_T) pekifreak and I hung out around Osu and Sakae, primarily to go to Ran no Yakata because there's a "summer lights" thing going on. But see like, I figured they'd darken the inner rooms so the lights could be cute all day, but no :P Apparently the light show is only on after sundown, which means it only lasts for an ( Read more... )

On Saturday I made a dash during my lunch break (I lucked into the 90 minute break somehow) to Meieki's Baby shop to try for a fukubukuro. Of course they were sold out. I did get to see the new fall line on display though-- omg, so many amazing things! Espcially the coats D: OMG. Do want. But I figured, since I'm here, I should grab that trench ( Read more... )

Agh, why is it such a pain in the ass to figure out train schedules for anything other than JR?! Every time I got to Kansai I'm like "this time I'm going to save money and take Kintetsu!" and then I realize that Kintetsu is a big retarded mess and end up paying out my nose for the Shinkansen :\

I don't like my entries getting out of order, so before I post my Osaka review, here is my Takayama post! :D Not as exciting as Osaka, but still fun.

On Thursday I went with Hiroko, my occassional-assistant-manager (who is THE CUTEST PERSON EVER), to Takayama, which is famous for having some well preserved very old buildings. And also for having ( Read more... )

Yoshi didn't want to go out today (the weather was ASS this morning though, I don't blame him. We couldn't have gone to the ocean, for sure). He invited me to his house, but I've been locked in my damn school for a week and I won't exactly have a lot of time to myself next week either, so I HAD to go out. LOL.
So I hung out with notafanboy today, and we ( Read more... )
