he has on the 24th too. I still feel really really bad about not being able to get tickets for my mom, that would've been the best present I could evere give her. If only I found out a month earlier I would have had a chance...I still can't beleive he's still that popular that he would totally sell out both shows, it makes me happy that there are people who can still appreciate good music out there. I know we would've been both bawling like babies during the entire concert. <---one of my favorites, I can't help but sing along whenever I hear it. |

some weirdo from mixi messaged me: "写真見たよ！！ とっと、ボッチャリしてきたみたい。 ポニョの見過ぎかもね！！ ビールは、ほどほどにね！！ またね。" first of all Fuck you, sir! secondly, who the hell are you!? I've always been chubby so I don't think I've gained a whole bunch of wait recently so I don't have a clue what he's talking about...but that's aside the point, don't tell me I've gotten fat jackass! I especially don't need to hear that from a stranger looking at people's internet blogs |

Cat captured...in took 3 days though (she's was psycho!) and spayed! I really want to go to an onsen...like REALLY REALLY want to go! The weather is starting to get too cold for me (and it's only November, not a good sign). I also want to travel some, but alas my wallet suggests otherwise. hmmm not much today, my first lazy day in a while. I think I'm going to attempt to cook some of the daikon I got. One of the cookbooks my mom gave me has a recipe for "Chicken Simmered with Daikon Radish" which sounds farely easy to make, and I have most of the ingrediants already (save for mirin and leeks) I WANT TO GO HERE! OMG! http://www.ooedoonsen.jp/english/in or here, I kinda want to see Tokyo Dome anyway since I only got a glimpse of if when I went to see Rain's concert: http://www.tokyo-dome.co.jp/e/laqua/s What I really want is a hot-stone massage OAO/ |

This morning I dragged myself out of bed at 6 and got in the shower and I was thinking "just xx amount of classes left until winter break... hmm that seems more than I figured out the other day... WAIT A SECOND!" I had today off XD So I finished showering, dried my hair and went back to sleep. That was like, the coolest thing ever. I ended up sleeping until 11, even though I went to bed at 11:30 last night. I have the amazing ability to sleep 10~11 hours every time I can recently. And I'm not just being lazy, I actually sleep that long solidly (this morning's shower break being an abnormality) and wake up feeling awesome, which usually isn't the case if you sleep that long. I've been working my butt off recently but soon I'm gonna be off and I'm going to make it the most awesomely lazy vacation ever! I've saved so much recently I'm proud of myself, and because the dollar is sooo weak now (not exactly a good thing in the big picture, but a GREAT exchange rate when I'm making my salary in yen) I went and bought $1000 the other day, it was so cheap. If I bought that much two months ago, it'd cost me about 20,000y more. It looks like it dropped a little more even since then, I should go buy more. D: My credit card bills both have huge balances on it.. On one of them I charged our tickets to LA, and then Minori and I gave my mom cash to pay our parts of the bill (since I don't use checks, she'll write a check and send it in) but she ended up forgetting and SPENDING the cash, and now doesn't have the money to pay it all off at once, so I have this huge bill racking up finance charges. I don't want to use my money to pay it off because I already PAID once, but at the same time it's damaging my credit rating so I want it gone asap. Hmm, money... how frustrating it is. |

I thought I had finally paired down my workload.... I'd really pushed hard these past two weeks to clear out several standing orders. Especially after Halloween (The week of, I made 3 cloaks, 2 bustle skirts, an A line skirt, a vest, 3 collars, 3 promo postcards for a juried show......plus worked 30 hours, and entertained, and did several trips about the state. I still am in shock I completed that much) I needed a break, and was looking forward to the next few weeks of relaxation, and a much more clear schedule... I only had 2 pieces of art to work on...A masquerade piece (illustration) for an alzheimer's charity event that I'm trying to have complete by Dec. 1st.... And a portrait of 2 bulldogs a co-worker hired me for that I'm trying to complete before I move in 6 weeks. So....I managed some spare time to bang out 2 sketches for anime commissions.... (Plus, my outfit for the Dickens Event, which is creeping closer and closer each day...) And then I came home today. Another bustle skirt sale. As well as my name being on the flyer for Haven's Erotica fashion show on Dec 1st.....Which I had not CONFIRMED YET (And was planning on turning down). Apparently, she took my 'let me get back to you' as a definite yes. So now I feel committed to it, and have under 2 weeks to make 2 pieces of lingerie-ish attire...... Thankfully only 2! You know...I keep trying to break these workaholic tendencies, and just fate is against me, smiting me at every turn it seems. Ah well. Back to the grind.... I'm always meant to be overloaded and stressed it seems. |

Ha! I win.... but apparently Kaito means too damn much to me... it took me 3 days Not recommending it to anyone - screaming computers aren't high on most people's lists... I personally like Teto's version, but since she's technically UTAU, and not Vocaloid, I'm not claiming her as my fav. At least it's not Gakupo. *shudders* (And Miku has totally scarred me after listening to her version of POTO - I think my eardrums were bleeding....) KAITO's version (愛は戦争). 行き場の無い焦燥 この愛の荷重差 Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! 藍色の空 微粒子の光角 日差しは沈み 闇弱に響く機械音 嗚呼、世界が荒んで それでも好きでいれるかなんて 分かりきった この暗号を君に どうすれば 伝わるか バカだな. . . 俺は 君を守るよ これは戦争 傷付いてく君を見るなんて 溺れる愛 これは罪 思い知らせ 俺の愛惜を 叫んでみたこの声は貧弱だけど どれほど声をあげても 君に届きはしないだろう 嗚呼、いつの間にか 夜が明ける 時間よ止まれ 気持ちが伝えれなくて どうしたら どうすれば 手の届かない 君が見えるよ だから 君を守るよ これは戦争 手段なんて選ぶ暇は無い この愛の差を見せ付ける為 君を守り抜いてみせるのさ 嗚呼、終撃用意 戦況は未だ終わりがない 愛は戦争 この歌が君に届くまでは damn lappie is locking again *posts before the sys crashes* |

Yeah so um, FINALS BE OVER! I celebrated with Molly at a swanky (for us bimbo gakusei at least) Italian place in Tachikawa (which had awesome food!) and karaoke! I hadn't done karaoke in like forever, it was awesome and everyone seemed to be out and about drunk. Then I met up with yuhei. Today, I went to see my old student (my first english student *sniff*) at his house in yabe(waaayyy far out). His wife is the cutest thing ever! I was hoping to meet his son, but alas he still had school (HAHA!) so student (Mr. Okita) works for Asahi and his other friend works for some really old company (like 400 years old?) that makes this liquer made with...herbs. So they were practically force feeding me all different types of booze at the same time. I always feel like crap if I mix too much so I was kinda dying by the end. I tried the herb alcohol and it really does smell like...wild herbs..kinda like herb tea...but it's syrupy so as you can imagine, it tasted like cough syrup (me no likey!) He also has a big farm now, and gave me all these fresh veggies I don't really know quite to do with but I'm gonna see what I can cook, I don't want them to go to waste. Tomorrow, I'm gonna head to Sadia's place early. She feeds stray cats and this one female cat (aka Miss Tokyo) keeps on having kittens. We've been meaning to catch and spay her for some time but she's really aggressive and skittish (she's the one who took a piece out of my arm). While trying to lure her current kittens, Sadia caught Miss Tokyo by accident so I'm gonna brave death by kitty claws and help her into a carrier and take her to the vet. Miss Tokyo scares the crap out of me, but I really don't want anymore kittens out in the cold. Wish me luck! Then I'm meeting Molly in Ginza! Whee! Pictures- Someone's photo at the karaoke place that made me lol:  CANCER HOST! Yes, he still mails but today he was like "hur hur here's me trying to be the best ho I can be!" :  I apologize for spelling and grammar errors galore but I am tired and have to wake up early tomorrow so I'm gonna go collapse.... |

 What is this you say, some new kind of fruity-looking vegetable juice in a can with a funny name? No sir, this is not just any fruity-looking vegetable juice, it's ALCOHOLIC vegetable juice. I've seen cans of the tomato juice alcohol cocktails around, but I hadn't seen this one before, although I haven't really been looking. I pretty much stopped drinking alcohol entirely in recent months, but I decided to try this for the amusement factor when I saw it in the supermarket today. It totes 20% juice of 21 kinds of vegetables (including carrots, spinach, asparagus, broccoli, eggplant, onions, and a wide variety of strange leafy greens, to name a few) and 20% juice of 5 fruits, but somehow just ends up just tasting like 100% grapefruit juice. Which is a bit of a disappointment, because I hate grapefruit juice. Oh well. But in terms of REAL fruits and vegetables, this season makes me very happy because there are in-harvest fruits by the bushel you can't get any other time of year, and I've been able to get packs of persimmons and pears for surprisingly cheap (at least, by Tokyo standards). Mikan are also in abundance but I can never seem to eat them all before one on the bottom explodes violently into mold, infecting the surrounding ones too. |

I just finished watching this movie, and it was mind blowingly FABULOUS. I know want to go on a hunt for such lovely pre WW2 clothing like the world is ending. Or at the least, find the means to make them all myself. On a side note, I spent quite a bit of my hard earned cash today, not all of it necessarily wisely. I officially have a cocktail dress, made of blue silk, and so much beadwork my head spins. Personally, I was much more in love with the elegant floor length gowns that screamed 30s film star...but I couldn't afford any of those, and the little blue chiffon silk cocktail dress was only mildly out of budget. ....I am entering a world where I need cocktail dresses.... ....something is very strangely wrong here.... ...and yes. I still will try to rock my Dr. Martins with it. Despite the holes around the steel toes. There will be photos. Eventually. Cuz I am punk yo. I need to make lingerie also. WTF? Yes...for a fashion show.... I'm insane. Someone remind me that world eventually ends, and that's where all the truly restful sleep happens. |

I will not mention money right now. I will not. *cough* ANYWAY. I have this new Female!Fuji dancing around in my head. And she doesn't want to go away. And she's younger than my courtromances Fuji. I think she's either 13 or 14. :x Weird, weird girl... -_-;;

I'm free for two weeks after this friday!!!! To celebrate being done with Ad.Listening, I have to recommend a movie we watched a clip of. Now, I usually hate japanese movies for the dumb/lack of plot and horrible acting but watching clips of this movie made me run my ass to tsutaya and rent the dvd. Sore demo boku ha yattenai (I still/just didn't do it). It's basically about how shitty the court system in Japan is aka you have almost 0% chance of getting an innocent verdict. A young guy gets accused for molesting a girl in the train but didn't do anything and goes through a long grueling trial to prove his innocence. Good acting, realistic and scared me of ever having to deal with the Japanese court system! Go watch it! Speaking of movies, I really want to see the X-files movie! OAO/ In other news, I was paranoid that yuuhei buggered off but he mailed me the other day so...yay? Thanks hirofumi for giving me paranoia and guy-complex I have a cold sore on my lip and it's a doozy...been applying abreva like nobody's business but it's still angry and red and huge. I should've known, the weather suddenly got a lot colder, I haven't been sleeping at all and stress like no other. I think I'm gonna call it a night early today. |

Dear zoi_no_miko Pls teach me the ways of a hoop skirt... I need to make one asap. =D Going to Dickens at the beginning of December!! All dressed to the nines... Ms. devissickness , Are you interested in joining us? It's in PA, I can get you the full details if you like. It would be lovely to see you my dear! (Dressing up not necessary, but you know I will be...)Besides that - I'm trying to get some outfits done on my day off. A matching trashcan fairy outfit, a few of my fleece pajama pants, and a few bustle skirts for photography purposes. My toe is healing nicely since the laser surgery, but it's still strange having a hole the size of the tip of my pinky finger... Apparently it'll be there for 6 months, but hopefully I'll be able to work without an issue by the end of this week. (Yesterday was horrid...So thankful for the holiday today) Now I just want to sort out that missing package.... |
