ok. today:
woke up late, nice
mailed postcards
bought everything for my puerto rican dinner. this began the part of the day where a German man began to pursue me. It started because I was one euro short for my groceries. the retarded thing is that in Germany you have to put a one euro coin into the shopping carts in order to use them. You get this back when you return the cart. So i was one euro short and glaring at my shopping cart with the on euro in there that was of no use to me. So the man next in line paid ( gave him the money i had but he didn't wait for the extra euro)and said it wasn't a problem such things have happened to him before.
So happy there are genuinely nice people in Germany and with one euro in hand i buy an ice cream to celebrate the fact that life is beautiful. go to the bustop afterwards and lo and behold thre is the man from the supermarket. I say hello and keep eating ice cream cause it is embarrasing to have someone have to bail you out in those situations. So I avoided any further eye contact.
I get off of the bus. It is about a ten minute walk to my dorm. I almost get there and hear an out of breath person behind me. Then i fell out of breath person lightly touch my arm. I turn around and its the guy from the supermarket. He says:
----
Oh, I caught up to you
I just wanted to tell you that I find you attractive and if you'd like to get a drink sometime.
After this i politely say i am leaving the country but it was very nice of him to help me at the grocery store. he says not a problem he goes away.

Its funny how because I have I boyfriend and have had one for quite sometime, that I really don't expect men to find me attractive and simply assume they never have any such intentions toward me. Oh well, today I was reminded otherwise. Quite unexpected and funny. Hopefully, this won't deter said German man from being polite and courageous with some other available chick n the future.
Other then that my Japanese friends came over and we ate. It was fun to hang out. I heard about Risa's sumo wrestler friend. Its becoming fashionable to marry in hurches in Japan. I tried their plumwine thqat they brought me. All in all it was good. I have been invited to Japan in all seriousness. I would really like to go there.
Oh then I looked into the cupboard and realized that I left dough in the package. So it exploded from its plastic container. mess but hilarious cuse I am stupid, sometimes :)
there is more but it is 230 am
