Back to School

Well, I'm pretty much settled in my new apartment. My apartment mates are really friendly, so I'm really happy about that. We're all really quiet, so I don't think there will be a problem in that department this year. I'm glad that the guys downstairs are really nice. Even though they're loud sometimes, they are really quiet when it comes to night time. I think I might have even scared them last night when I said I was going to bed, and I wanted it to be quiet. Hopefully, they'll get to know me better, and not think I'm so bitchy. They actually told me today when I saw them that they turned the base completely off so that it wouldn't be so loud. I really appreciate that they're trying, and not trying to still do whatever they want. I think this year is going to be really good. I think I'm going to enjoy waking up really early. Feels good to wake up at 6am~. Ahh, life somehow feels really good at the moment, though this may all change when I get stressed... Oh well. I'll just enjoy it for the time being. 'Till next time~!

Shinjuku Shopping Spree

I literally spent a huge hunk of money today. I can see how it's so easy for What Not to Wear to spend $5000 in two days... I can't wait to show off my new wardrobe. I absolutely love what I bought. Most of it is for fall and winter. I really was looking for more of these clothes because I get cold, and I really don't have nice clothes that I can wear during the winter. Most of my good clothes are for spring and summer, and now I have a great wardrobe for winter~! Now, I just need new boots and maybe a long jacket, but those cost so much money... I'll have to ask my mom if I can buy those, because those are going to be the most expensive! >.<;;; Time for bed now, since I want to go shopping again tomorrow. Man, shopping here is so good~!

I need to be slapped

I really don't know why I neglect some of the most important things in life. I've developed a bad "I don't care" attitude again, which I really need to snap out of. Perhaps it's because it's nearing the school year that I'm dreading. Maybe I'm trying to run away. Somehow I can't face the reality of going back to school. I feel so scared to go back.

I'm alive~

Yup, I'm alive, and about to bawl my eyes out from watching this special drama on 24h television with Arashi. The story is about a guy that gets diagnosed with CIDP (Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy) and it follows his story of how he deals with it. It really reminds me of my life, and how I have to deal with my illness. In a way, I am very thankful that it was only ulcerative colitis. I am still able to lead a normal life, but it still has affected me in a pretty deep way, and I know that it has affected my mom as well when we were in the hospital. I just wish that I was able to face my illness properly. I actually believed I did, but I just kept running away. I'm not going to run away from it anymore, because I'm going to face it with a smile on my face no matter how hard it gets.

Anyway... It's time to play my new RPG soccer game and watch 24hr TV show until I don't know when. Arashi is so cute~! XD

Am I Insane?

So yeah... I got my ears pierced this morning... XD

Fruitful Winnings or Wasted Money?!

I swear the UFO games (the claw games where you try your luck trying to grab the prize with the claw) in Japan are too addicting... There are just too many prizes I want and they're all really hard to get. I really don't know how much money was wasted on this, but somehow, there's some weird happiness winning these items that I probably don't know where else I'd find them in Japan. Man, I so know that I'm gonna get killed when I go back home... *runs and hides*

EDIT: I tried looking for these prizes online, and they don't seem to be sold anywhere else. I kind of wish I knew the original start value, but then again, I don't because a chunk of money went into getting these prizes... >.>;;

Mitsuya Cider Love

As a kid, I was infatuated with Sprite soda. It was my favorite soda. When I came to Japan, I'd always ask for a Sprite thinking that they'd have it since most soft drinks are universal, but they didn't. However, they had a different type of soda that was kind of like Sprite, and it was actually pretty good. Well, after coming here, I had forgotten about this wonderful soda. I was eyeing Mitsuya Cider for a while, but it looked like just plain carbonated sparking water, which I would have been very disappointed if it was. Then yesterday, my friend said that Mitsuya Cider was really good. I decided to give it a try. Turns out, it was the soda that I liked when I came to Japan. I'm glad that I found this soda again. It's actually a lot better than Sprite. Ahh, brings back the memories of Japan when I went to visit as a kid. ^.^
