Went to Creole's for lunch and ended up staying there until... 9:00pm? yeah, I know. Long lunch that was, wasn't it?
Thank you Khan, for showing us Identity Crisis! mustseenextarcmustseenextarc!
Those ...bugs that fly into lights then die are very annoying when they go in your ears, mouth, eyes...
>_< On the bright side, I saw an entire basin of them dead with a lit candle at the middle!
I can now use the busses along Edsa to get home! Now if only I could lose my dependance on Edsa road...
Starting tomorrow, at 8:00, I'll regretfully have to say goodbye to internet. I won't be back until sometime at the 22nd. My family is going off to China. If I can, I'll try to bring home one of their dragons and hopefully learn more Kanji while I'm there. Think I can be an apprentice under some martial arts school there? ...I guess not. probably won't learn much in just 1 week anyway. *sigh* Bought weapons won't be able to be brought home, would they? Maybe I can find some good Cpop or ballads while I'm there.
Advanced Happy Birthday Kang! Sorry that I probably won't be around to greet you on the day itself. I'll see if I can get an extra special gift for you!
EDIT(I find it easier than making a new post):
Got the fire escape key, opened the cage-like bars outside the window, and went out to the roof. It was a hassle going through those bars, using tissue-gloves to avoid injuries with the rust of the cage, fitting through the small door, and testing for the best spot to step on without making much noise, but I know I will do it again. and again. Whee, being on the roof just feels good. Simply not caring about the dust and just lying down was very relaxing. Simply enjoying the cool wind and the shade of the clouds. Watching the blue disperse as the red spreads... for an hour? I don't know how long I was daydreaming there. Whee, not thinking of anything and just riding my subconcious to wherever it goes. I'd really like to do that again. Probably after the trip. I should bring my sketchpad or a notebook out there with a ballpen and pencil. Seems like a good place for inspiration.
Yesterday was a birthday of a cousin. Ate in D'Marks. Even though it was just a family gathering, it was... stiff. I held conversations with myself in my head. Everything I wanted to say were left unspoken. Food was good though. Meat...something pizza(can't remember all the names given to these kind of pizzas in different places for I never bothered.) and meat raviolli. Yeah, I had a craving for meat. Having attended two parties so close to each other, I've been able to spend some time comparing how I am with family to how I am with friends. I'm too closed up with family. Probably due to previous experiences of trying to open up to my parents and everyone trying to outdo everyone else in being polite. My parents look happy during it, but when it's all over and we get to the car, they complain about everything. >.< I have to listen through all of it, even. Media often show people being themselves towards their family while trying to be someone else when with friends to get accepted by them. I feel I am the opposite. On the bright side, it makes me appreciate you all more. ^_____________________^ Thank you for every crack-filled moment.
I think I slept at 2:00am, woke up at 6:00 to prepare for nihonggo class, slept when I arrived at 11:10, woke up for lunch, then slept again until sometime around 4:00. I believe I won't be able to sleep much tonight.
Since I can't sleep, might as well recap what I remember.
Everything was ready. All I had to do is wait until it was time to prepare to go out. Then, I remembered something about wrapped boxes having to be opened in the MRT. That's when I got the idea for the box. Didn't have enough time to color all sides though. :P I like what I was able to do with it though. The effect of the eyes wasn't even intended until I saw that P-chan wouldn't fit in completely. Took a picture of him when the thought crossed my mind.
MRT was crowded, but no problems worth mentioning. Guard that was checking the box was amused when he saw P-chan and said it was cute. I even think that he might have recognized it.
Waited in Mc Donalds. Made impromptu "card" from a page of my daily memo when I realized I forgot to get one. Played with P-chan a bit. Waited for a looong time for R2 and Jake. Doodled. Listened to Monty Python songs. Waited. Happily left when they arrived. The guards at the gate failed to acknowledge the existance of any Davids in their little happy village. Ended up walking. Didn't get lost this time!
hmm, the party... I'm not sure if I can recall everything. A lot happened afterall. I enjoyed the food. I loved the coke. hehe, due to scarcity, we scrambled whenever we heard a bottle opening. I liked the music, despite my lack of expression. Whenever I looked toward who was playing, I usually focused on the hands. Am I that interested in learning? I took a mental note to try jumping next time I play guitar freaks. I also practiced drawing again, getting some extra tips from Arred and Benji. I personally liked the emoticons I made for myself. Kang kept leaning on Liu, Benji kept going to Arred, Arred kept going to Liu, Creole and Arred played a few songs a few times, Artoo, Khan and Jake stuck close to each other, Creole and Rika kept going to other guests who I do not know, I remember seeing Rika run away from a kid(or vice versa. I just remember chasing), and I just kept joining one then the other. I also watched a homemade video by Kang's brothers, took lots of pictures, learnt how to play a tune on a guitar, and learnt how to Moonwalk! Can't remember anything else at the moment.
Brought R2 home, and ate at Mc Donalds because my family wanted to.
I am currently... tired but not tired, awake but not awake. Yeah, I can't sleep. Currently 6:00. Typing on Microsoft Word for no internet connection is available right now. Probably will post this sometime... after lunch, probably. Due to no internet at the moment, I haven't started working on the pictures yet. I'll start when I go online.
Mental note: Finish watching Nana, download Shine We Are and... the song from Nana.
>.< Must... remember... title!
First class, and I came 5 minutes late. -_-;(mental note: It takes 10 minutes to reach the place) The method of this class seems like it will be very different from the one in LSGH.
When I came in, sensei was going on and on about how someone can't just learn the language itself, but must also learn the culture, how to enjoy it, and etc to be able to use it properly. It was a very long introduction for the language. From it, I learned that the class is going to focus in speaking the language rather than writing, people get paid for doing weird things for part-time jobs in Japan, and suicide is the "in" thing among the students there.
It was interesting going all the way back to the beginning. I understood what sensei in LSGH said more now. The room was... blindingly white. White walls, big white rectangular table, white seats, white clock, white aircon, and a white fluorecent(probably spelt it wrong, but too lazy to care) light directly above.
it reminded me of the mental asylum, only with stuff inside the room The carpet was blue. May actually have to wear jacket next time.
I was given all the handouts for the entire lesson plan. whee! Curious about how sensei is going to approach it. First lesson was pronounciation of hiregana/katakana characters and recognizing borrowed english words and possible different meanings. I never knew about the "n" before b, p, m, and probably others I don't remember changing it's pronounciation to "m" thing. Assignment is to memorize how to introduce myself and common greetings. Good thing it's almost just like the LSGH class expressions! mwahahaha.
Tomorrow morning is
crashingdriving.
Khan and I watched Airdance today too. I met Rika's Iinchou for the first time. First reaction:
It's... pink. (To Rika): "That's yours, right?"
