oh my... i went to sign up for a years subscription to WWD (womens wear daily) and while its $99 in the states, apparently its $595 outside of the states. gee, nevermind 0_0
but speaking of money, i bought a $800 industrial sewing machine by juki and a $700 serger by brother and im totally set to be a sewing maniac. im not in a design course so we dont get to learn the really cool techniques, but right now were making a blouse and no offense to my mother who made all of my clothes growing up, but it looks really professional and not at all homemade so im really happy so far. i even took the fabric off of inspiration of prada's new collection. i dont think i would ever spend money buying into that trend- but im going safari, baby!
speaking of material and stuff, my RM and i went to all the way to nippori to look for cool fabrics in all the warehouse shops but they were all closed for golden week. (*$#(*&! japanese shops and their WONKY closing schedules baffle me. EVERYONES ON BREAK-WOULDNT IT BE A GOOD CHANCE FOR SOME BUSINESS?! i guess the travel industry has the retail industry by the balls when it comes to golden week. stupid.
ive been partying with all the new peeps in the dorm lately who are, im happy to say, really cool. not like i doubted it, but we had fun last year too. anyway, weve had several birthday parties and such so ive been drinking and waking up nauseous a lot. on friday we went to karaoke from 10:30pm to 6am and it was an absolute blast. unfortunately i sang a LOT of songs and my throat KILLED the next day (no thanks to linkin park >_<) and then had some things to get done so i didnt sleep at all that day.... much to say the next evening i had a fever with horrible stuffed sinuses and a piercing headache. i probably should have stayed home last night but it was thomas' birthday so i trudged it up to kokubunji thinking i could sleep a little but that didnt happen. im reaping the consequences now though >_< the party was cool, we stuffed a helluva lot of people into their apartment, including ishikura-san (aka The Director) and akaho (The Naked Actor) who, after getting drunk, confirmed everyone's suspicions that all japanese men have a little gayness within. it was great fun and nico brought his eyetoy for sony that everyone got a little too excited over >_>;;
hmmm...i wish i had more exciting things going on but im a little loserish lately and ive just been going to school (super strict, people. like whoa.) and teaching my eikaiwa and chillin on the weekends. im out. peace to ur mutha~
