I woke up this morning and we were docked in Shanghai~!

I shall now go out and peruse the historical sites and eat good food and buy good fakes. Wait, good fakes? Isn't that a little oxymoronic?

I got another email from my friend. He has officially been appointed First Chair. Good for him, but I'm really envious. Except that Sakaki-sensei sent me ( Read more... )

Well, post aspirin, my birthday Boatwide Bachelor's Day was pretty fun. I think. I don't really remember... Who spiked the punch anyway? Played the piano a little bit, I remember that. I can't believe that was an entire month ago~. It seems like we just lay around here on this ship more often than not. Not that it isn't fun to do so. I'm just a ( Read more... )

So maybe tomorrow won't be a total bust. Boatwide Bachelor's Day party... Ask Mukahi-san~

My friend from orchestra back in Japan emailed me and told me he got the violin solo in the annual Valentine Special. He said I would have, had I still been there. It's probably for the better. I haven't even touched the violin I was lent. My excuse is that ( Read more... )

Everyone is talking about Valentine's day in their journals. I guess I don't think it's that important, but I suppose I'll run around this ship finding and making gifts for my friends.

I've just been looking over all of my past entries, and I would say I've been somewhat down. I think the westerners call it "being emo" or whatever that means. I should look up more often, I think.

Sooo, happiness. Yeah. Someone wanna play tennis?

I seem to be lonely, so far into this trip. I've been playing singles with Hiyoshi-san most days, but it seems like everyone else has a significant other to pass their time with. In my boredom, I have become something of a movie addict. There is a nice theater near to the formal dining room that screens western films three times a day, and I find ( Read more... )

Another year, another start at life, right ( Read more... )

Ano, well, I'm really just testing this for now.
