short of grocery
Mood:  hug me
My fridge is empty...I gotta go to the supermarket but I couldn't ...cuz I had to work late. sob sob.
Now I'm translating the papers for the meeting tomorrow. It's fun to do something other than patent specifications. :)

I was back in home in Hyogo on weekends. I went to see my grandpa and other relatives, and had a good time with my family as well. I missed my doggy though...
In Kobe my parents took me to a nice old restaurant named Ju-ji-ya. It had a very nice atmosphere of the good old time...and the food was really tasty. It's so-called a Yo-shoku ya. Mmm, I'm lovin' it. :)

Anyway I came back to this lonely apartment last night. My skin is so rough...hah...
One more month to the long holidays. hehe

I started going to a tennis lesson at a gym today. As my friend asked me to go with her, I decided to do so cuz I thought I needed some exercise.
There were only three students tonight. But...it was really tough! I mean, the lesson did not need that hard work, but it requires a skill...which is missing in me. We got really tired after the 1.5hrs lesson. I think it's good for health though...I think it's unlikely that I can keep learning it...cuz I didn't think it so fun!

On weekends I went to Tokyo with my bf as he had to do some stuff there. It was a chilly day! In the evening we headed to Yokohama and spent some time at Ohsanbashi as we always do. It gives us such a stunning view everytime we go... and the city had such a warm atmosphere of Christmas already. The twinkling and shining Christmas trees and decorations were so cute, although we went to China city to have tasty Chinese and went back home with no romantics.

Hah...a new week started...this week I have to work a lot. *sigh*

fun with sis

I've been feeling so blue and down these days...
but my sister came from Osaka to play with me on Friday night!
It was so much fun fun fun. :)
I cooked dinner for her so she could start eating as soon as she arrived at my place, and she enjoyed it a lot. She liked my breakfast as well. I was happy.:)

On Saturday we headed to Tokyo by romance car (we're rich huh)...and went to Shiodome and Odaiba. My sister enjoyed both of the places and so I did!
After that, we went to a nice Italian restaurant at Nishi-shinjuku. They served such delicious dishes...mmm
I was kinda sad and lonely when I had to say goodbye to her... at that time I wanted to go back home in Kansai.
I hope she will come visit me some time soon.

The cute pajamas I ordered from Victoria's Secret arrived last night. As my friend ordered some together, we want to throw a pajama party now...haha..

A few days ago I received a DVD of "Fried Green Tomatoes", which is one of my most fav movies!
I had reserved it long before it was released as a DVD. (it's such an old movie)
I can't wait to watch it although I've seen it more than 5times.

On Sunday I took TOEIC...I was so tired since the test took 3 to 4 hours including everything.
and I'm sure my score would be worse...where's my concentration?

Today I couldn't concentrate on my job either...I was hanging around the company, interrupting my colleagues, drinking tasty ice cocoa, etc etc...
I was such a lazy employee.

It's getting cold day by day. I wanna go to onsen...

Last night it rained a lot but the typhoon was not that bad. I feel sorry for those who suffered and lost lives though...

Tomorrow it Friday. There is going to be a small sayonara party.
One of my colleagues who has been working for our company for 3.5 years is going to leave the office next week. He's such a good looking guy!! (already married) Plus, he graduated from Kyoto Uni. and he doesn't speak much and just concentrates on his job all the day.
It sounds like he's a perfect man, but once he starts drinking alcohol...
he goes violent!!! lol It's funny to see how much straight whisky he drinks. hehe..
anyway, I like watching him but I may not be going to the party tomorrow. cuz I am seriously short of money!!! 4000yen is a little over my budget.

My dad's birthday is coming soon.
I wonder what he wants cuz he can buy anything he wants. hmm...

holidays...

I went back home in Hyogo to spend the three-day holidays with my family.
Due to the heavy rain and traffic, the bus was delayed for about 30mins on Friday. I could catch the shinkan-sen that I reserved, but it was close!!

I had a very good time with my sister and parents in Kuraku-en and Kobe. There was a jazz festival in Sannomiya. Some nice streets were restricted so that no car can come in, and only pedestrians and jazz players were allowed on the streets...it was such a nice atmosphere. I realized again that Kobe is a unique city.
I came back to Atsugi last evening. The airplane and the bus were full of people so I got very tired...but it was such a nice weekends!

The bad news is that I had my hair permed on Saturday...thus I look like a fool even more..
I was supposed to be cuter..
I want to make it straight again!

The sky is so dim and it looks like it's gonna rain in no time.
I woke up late this morning and started cleaning my room, which was terribly messy! I drank with my friend last night who is also a translator living next door. Her room was very clean and organized so I thought I had to do the same. I had a fun time with her and her bf drinking some alcohol.
I had such a difficulty in spreading the rug which came back from "the cleaning" company. I did vacuuming, wiping, etc. etc.... I feel pretty fresh now. :)

There was a cake buffe in my company last night after work. It's so-called "cake biking" in Japanese. There's a famous cake shop near the company, and the ppl in charge of the service of our company prepared 700 cakes of about 15 kinds!
Jun-chan, Mizuki-chan and I took about 12 cakes and shared them together. Well, I expected more tasty cakes but they were...so ordinary cakes just like Fujiya's. I was kinda disappointed cuz I sacrificed my diet plan! As I ate too much cakes, I felt kinda sick after that... Cakes are best in Hyogo! I believe.

holidays
Mood:  lazy
The weekends passed so quickly, but I visited lots of places.
I spent Saturday to Sunday morning with my dad in Ebisu and Hiroo. I had tasty meals thanks to him. :)
On Sunday to Monday I was with my bf in Asakusa and Tsukiji. We played in Hana-yashiki, which was fun. It was such a hot day that we spent most of time just sitting on the bench though... the roller coaster was such a fun. :) At night we enjoyed tasty sushi in Tsukiji.
As I lost weight these days, I went to buy a new pair of jeans. I could fit my body into one size down jeans! I can't be any happier. :)

I have a presentation to introduce the job of translators to our group tomorrow. Ive prepared the documents so another translator will make a presentation with them. I have nothing to say but I'm getting kinda nervous...

cuz I just discovered imagintion is taking over...
