Jan-March 2008
Humm lots and not much has happened during this year. It as nothing like the year before but I still feel a bit guilty for not recording it. I should have also recorded my memories for 2006 summer but oh well, can't retrieve them now because i didnt even use a planner back then.
Jan 02 2008 wed
After slicing my finger, I decided to get a new job. I applied for a barista job at Cafe Artigano... but after realizing the hours I really doubt I can wake up every weekend for this time. Thus, I applied at several Japanese restaurants around the business district of Downtown Vancouver. I acutally had some fun applying at places because I found lots of little skinny out of no-where places that lead into random places it was very interesting. Alot of the restaurants opened at 5:00pm so I waited and I applied a few more restaurants. I came across Kamei Royale and the decor was simply beautiful. I really wanted to work there because the of the atmosphere. The manager talked to me and gave me a mini interview as i was filling out the application. She told me they paid 8/hr. I was thinking of going to wait for artigano.. but eventually i decided to work for Kamei. I got hired instantly.
Jan 19th Kevin's B-day Party
His birthday party was held at Jason's house on E broadway. I came with Hideki, Sae and... A.. at the moment I cant remember her name. I can't really remember much that happened except we played some games i drank a mix of stuff which gave me a really bad headache and eventually Hideki drove me home.
Feb 14th Valentines Day at Shota
Valentines day.. My bigggggg present was.... 2 midterms TADA~!!! oh gawd... Total lack of sleep i was feeling a little bitchy that day. Anyway Johnny invited me to Shota a new lounge for a V-day event. Him and his friend picked up up around 8ish? and then we drove to somewhat near broadway station and we took the skytrain down. The party was pretty empty. and we just sat there drinking. I'm really short on cash lately, so yea. Anyway i didnt eat all day and so the gyoza was really appetizing. Anyway I had about 1/2 a bottle of large sake already and he told me if i can drink it all he will pay for me but I'm not sure on what to order so I let him pick. He picked another large bottle of sake. The party still wasnt warming up and he wasnt in a mood for stayin out late so.... I had around 1 hr to drink it all.. Yea.. empty stomach... lack of sleep.. + 1.5 large bottles of sake.. yep prettty drunk. I could barely walk out properly. As soon as we were outside, the cold wind hit me and i was like SHIT. threw up... yea.. i was feeling really bad, but Johnny was helping me all the way. after much struggle we managed to get back to the car.. I was feeling HORRIBLE. My head was spliting and I kept having to throw up. Sooooo disgraceful! [but i still throw up neatly and not on the car btw] at the end of the night Johnny carried me up to my place. My mom took over and was bitching at me all while i was wayyyyy too drunk to care. I had my head on the bathtube rim as she changed my clothes and put me to bed. The next day I felt fine. =3
Feb 17th Lolita Secret Garden Party
Today I went to Secret Garden for a lolita party. There I met some new people. I cant remember her name but the tall one was kind of rude to me.. saying that my blouse should be fitted etc. The other new asian girl was very cheerful and emi was really adorable. After tea, I thought we will have a photoshoot but everyone had made plans after and viki was tiered. oh yea, I met her boyfriend too. He seems like a very nice guy. We took a few photos and since Khea's b-day is tmr I made her a banner and requested that everyone take a picture with it with me. I hope she likes it ^___^. Afterwards Emi and I hanged out. I went to her house to met her dolls. Apparently we have the same taste in music and yea, anyway we picked up her dolls and went to my place to pick up shuuya. We took lots of photos and many with her camera. Then we went to Metro took some purikura and more photos with our dolls. It was very fun. Then we went home.
---update--- the photos she never gave to me =/ and was kind of rude about it.. .T_Tl
Feb 23 Battle of the Bands
YESH I managed to get the day off to see VI'X's first performance. I know the 2nd is more important but this is the first one but I'm glad i can make it to both. The Show was really long. The winner was IO. Anyway it was quite an enjoyable show. VI'X was really awesome I was quite proud of them. I also met some of Tony's friends and yea we hanged for a bit. But afterwards I had to quickly leave to make it to Ruski's party. I ran across the feild of UBC and found there was a fence.. I managed to climb over it and land on my feet.. nearly breaking my shoes. I ran for the bus and got on. There was some cute Japanese guys on teh bus but i didnt bother talking to them. Anyway I made it to Ruski's party and there were ALOT of people again. I met many people there and alot of them liked my height. "Perfect for Japanese man" --apparently. The highlights were Kazuma from Ehime and Satoru from Tokyo
Feb 21st Satoru
AHHH what a hectic month it has been lately. bandshows midterms gwahhh I want to kill them all. Anyway, now I have a few days off. I dont really want to do much but just hang even though I have to study or something. I met up with Satoru at 530 at burrard station. We went to breadgarden. There we chatted lots and ran into Ruski. We were chatting with Ruski and his friend for awhile and eventually we left and walked around a bit. Later we went to Satoru's house for some sort of weed party. I went to meet more people. It ended up being more of me trying to avoid to smell more than anything but i was having fun. Satoru seems quite shy but I think he has a interest in me. We stayed for quite a while and then went to a small Japanese resturant near Konbiya on Robson street. We ate some dinner again short on money so i declined on food but he said he doesnt really eat that much and I shared food with him. Afterwards he walked me to skytrain and we looked at eachother for a bit and he looked like he wanted to kiss me. I smiled and said i had a good time and we huged and i went on skytrain. He was a nice guy but we dont seem to have much in common.
---update-- Satoru got a gf, and Kazuma went back home
March 2nd Let Go! bandshow
The battle of the bands was good but Let go! was even better~ The whole performance I was smiling like mad. It was awesome! Tony had a strawberry frap and winnie, tony, kai and i shared it. Kai had a cold and everyone caught it later and I almost did but i slept it off. After the show I was going to eat with everyone but Shu decided to go home and I had no way to get there and I ended up going home as well.
March 7 Sada
The Chestnut roaster guy. HAHA anyway I talked to him recently online. I heard he had to go back to Japan in 3 weeks and that we should meet before then. I met up with Sada. I barely recognized him but he had quite a cute face and his hair was alot nicer if he took off his hat. Now what happend next im not sure. I think we walked around for awhile,met his other fellow chestnut roster friend and ended up at bread garden? yea. He bought me a cappucino and he drank tea because of some health condition he cant drink coffee. We chatted alot then wondering what we should do for dinner, he invited me over to his house. He used to be a cook in Japan and offered to cook me a home-made dinner. I sat at his house as he made me food. His cook was really delicious. We were kinda flirting a bit back and forth with a play on words. Eventually, we sat beside each other and watched some tv. He came closer to me hugged me and then eventually kissed me. But I was uncomfortable of going too far. Anyway he walked me back to the skytrain. Hes a cool guy, but kinda too short... plus 3 weeks yet again. sigh
March 23rd. My b-day Easter Sunday
Lots of drama has been happening lately with domestic stuff especially because of my birthday. My father is trying every way he can to get out of paying child support now that im going to become of age but my mom slaped a piece of legislation to him that enforces his payments etc etc. basically daddy been calling me asking me about school not to see how I'm doing but rather to get more info on how he can get out of it. It hurt me badly that he had no interest in what was planning to do with my future but rather just interested only in the money aspect. I havnet spoke to him for awhile now and i refuse to answer his calls.
---update--- we made up for fathers day but i dont visit every 2nd weekend anymore because of convenience at home.
Anyway, My b-day is comming, I wanted to go clubbing at first but.. my b-day is on sunday and yea, no one really clubs on sundays. Anyways last min party not many people showed up but who did was Daiki, Johnny, Elle, Lauren, Erin, Mai, Kj, Clay? and Michelle. VI'X couldnt make it. it was a very odd 19th b-day but drinks were a must. It started off with Yao Yao feeling sick and so he couldnt stay but he came over anyway to bring me a present. I was quite happy for the people who did show up. We started off with pizza and such and then moved on to drinking games as soon as Johnny showed up. We played ring of fire while watching silent hill ahhah.. this is where it gets wierd. Daiki made a rule that people have to jump 3x everytime they have to drink. Ok, next J card Johnny made a rule that everytime that someoen drinks i have to drink. This is death for me hahah. We were playing with shots of voldka. Later Elle saved me by reversing it back on him.
By the end of the night i was hugging the toliet and Johnny had to be sent to the hospital for possible alcohol poisoning. We have always been competitive and always out to get each other but this time we kinda took it too far. Haha he got me but i got him back LAWL anyway everyone went with him except elle who stayed with me after i passed out. I was fine after being knocked out for a couple hrs. We prepared the cakes [Daiki baked me a cheesecake] and waited for the others to arrive back. My mother was not pleased with Johnny's attitude and acutally slapped him. She told me that i can never hang with him again for when it comes to alcoholic parties. My mother had a right to be unhappy, she spent some good money on that cake and really wanted to see me blow out candles but my party was ruined. It was ok though things happen =3
My 19th b-day became a bit of a alcoholic disaster but its alright 20th should be more tame or well I might not even be home for that one.
