my title is blahful but oh well :)
i passed my driving test; I had failed the first time however. well, not my fault COMPLEtELy, such an assholey guy who made the test super long and crap. well, wednesday's guy was really quick and fast. he didn't even make me park. i think he wanted me to pass, while the other guy tries to make people drive for a long time to find mistakes. safe,b ut whatever he's a jerk who made me cry at the end with his attitude. anyway, i passed my test and I drove all the way from irvine to san francisco, using tomtom was my guide and missing a critical turn that cost us about 40 minutes to recover. it was thanksgiving, so there was a lot of traffic!!!
i drove pretty much everywhere, from chi trangs house, to the dentist, to the restaurant.. i just didn't drive in the morning once because i wanted to sleep :)
thanksgiving was great. it was at chi trangs house. the highlight was probably super mario on wii, multiplayer. me, rudy, erin, and chi thy were struggling big time with the last firey lava roller coaster stage hahaha it was sooo fun! food was great! was great seeing my family too :)
the biggest news i have ever!!!
i went to nihonmachi japantown after a long time, and I saw this new tokyo exhibit display thing?! i thought it was some kind of japan culture museum, which it pretty much was. one the first floor there was a kissaten (coffee shop), and upstairs there was a store with all this cool stuff. one of the things that stuck out to me was the refillable cup, which utilized partial pressure air gas law (raolt?) and the cup would refill itself. it's kind of like a dog water bowl, the automatic dispenser ones. same logic, same theory. but it was cool seeing it on a glass cup. a lot of neat things, but just too damn expensive. afterwards, me and my brother went on the second floor
and I think i could have just died.
this was the big news
it was something I didn't think I'd be able to do until I went to japan next year
something I had seen only in pictures online
anime, manga,
within my dreams
for the first time in my life, I STEPPED INTO
BABY THE STARS SHINE BRiGHT
which was amazing to say the least :)
i kind of lost my breathe, and i was just so excited i couldn't speak
when i did though, i kind of turned into a big mouth, talking to the girl working there
i told her about how crazy i was about sweet lolita and how i watched shimotsuma monogatari
and i asked about how many dresses she had: she had 6! that's like omg 6 x 300 $$$$1,800 freaking dollars!!
she said to me, feel free to try on anything--- well, I really wanted to try it but i had my glasses on and whatever i
wore would be dasai (ugly). plus, i was really really embarassed for the first time in my life i realized that
i couldn't wear the look and i'd just end up embarassing myself darrrrnnn lol
i want one though!!!!!!!! except kazuya says it'll be ugly :PP well, i'll just have to save it for a day when
we're not hanging out then :P
today, my flight was at 7 and i woke up at 5:45. got to the airport at 6:45 (very convenient to live next to the airport :) uci parking and transportation was really nice this year to provide shuttles back to campus. i saw the shuttles on wednesday, but people had to go to the flagpoles in order to get to the airport, but today from the airport, the shuttle man was nice enough to give me a ride all the way back to vista del norte, instead of the flagpoles like i anticipated :) :) the driver wasn't a student, or a uniformed employee, so i really got the feeling, "what a nice dad!" hahahaa it was like high school again when people, adults cared :D
i have a long day ahead of me. planning to fix up mac and cheese for lunch. then doing laundry and doing homework.
i have a lot to do today: write japanese essay, chem lab writeup, catch up on chem, study for chem lab final, write personal statements for japan :\
i was going to end it at that, but I just wanted to say that before I was really wavering in my relationship, but it was mostly due to the fact that i'm like 87% alone here in my apartment in vista del campo norte, so i get moody and stuff. but anyway, i just realized that I gotta take it one day at a time. if he should ever decide to like someone else, that's his choice and it's fine. but for the time being, as he tells me 好きだよ, i won't doubt it, and instead i'll appreciate it and be happy, be glad that the person i like the most in the world still talks to me, and tells me he likes me too ^^
wow. how embarassing. who reads this anyway? nobody, yeah!!! hollerrrrrrr
