"Oh the weather outside is frightful~"
"But my apartment heater's soooo delightful~"
Hey guys! I'm back from another awesome weekend in Tokyo! This weekend I picked up Brandy from the airport to spend a FUN-FILLED WEEK together. We've got a lot planned--going to Kyoto for Thanksgiving Thursday, hitting up Tokyo again Friday, going sight-seeing, and maybe even to see Phantom of the Opera or Wicked...in Japanese of course! XD
This weekend was also my first time to get to participate in one of Nagayama Takashi's fan-club events. I'm a huge fan of his, if that wasn't obvious, because not only is he hot, he's an amazing singer and actor, and his events are NOT to be missed. That definitely held true, as I was treated to two straight hours of his singing songs he hasn't sung in front of an audience for 3 or 4 years, lots of little insider bits about his previous performances, friends, and his own past.
He's such a personable, friendly guy, and tried to strike up a conversation with me in English (tried XD) when I shook his hand as we left.
I also got to meet up again with Takada-san, a girl I met a couple of weeks ago when I went to see the final performance of Switch. I mentioned in my previous post that I only BARELY managed to get in in time, through a strange series of coincidences. One of those coincidences was, when I got to the theater, I asked a random girl in the crowd if she knew if day-of tickets were still being sold. This girl was Takada-san. She took care of EVERYTHING for me, a total stranger (and more so, a foreign stranger!), and gave me her own card to try for the chance to get a ticket (since it was a lottery), and because of her I was the VERY LAST person to get in. Suffice to say I was VERY happy to meet her again and have the chance to thank her. We exchanged cellphone info, and we're going to hang out some more at future events.
I also figured out this weekend that I have very cheap long-distance and I THINK I can call home with a simple code for about $5 a month! Expect calls from me soon, everyone *evil cackle*
