Rainy Disney.
Yesterday I woke up at 5am and went to Tokyo Disney Sea with my favorite 3translators. :)
Unfortunately, the weather forecast said it's gonna be rain all day, but we went there anyway.

There were not so many people as we expected. Disney Sea was..really well designed. The architecture was sooo nice to the details. We enjoyed the rides, which I expected more thrilling. :)
I liked the Centre of the Earth and Whirl Pool the best. In fact, there was a big earthquake followed by a big rain, so all the rides stopped for a while.

We ate curry and nahn for lunch, and some other snacks too.
It was a nice amusement park but I missed those 7 dwarfs and other characters...Disneyland is better for me, I guess!

We took a bus to Yokohama and I slept all the way. We had tasty ra-men there, and took Sotetsu-line and Odakyu to home!
Our body got really tired, but our minds, could go to Disneyland thereafter!

We are planning to go to Tohoku or somewhere for hot springs next time.

VICTORYYYY
Finally finally...!!
Our Hanshin Tigers won the championship after 18years last night!
It's really unbelievable but I was extatic to see the players excited at Koshien on TV!
I could see O'malley too...:)
Gosh it was such a big night. I wished I could have been in Kansai...it would have been even better there.
When I called mom right after that moment, she was like...crazy with too much happiness!
Last night we had one more thing to celebrate. We threw a birthday party for one of our loving translators. We invited one of them's boyfriend and our senior worker, and had lots of beer and wine and cocktails with tasty food in the community room downstairs. It was great that I could see the victory of Tigers on a big big plasma TV. :)

On Sunday, after writing this journal I headed to COSTCO at Tama-sakai. It was kinda far, and COSTCO was reeeally crowded with ppl from all over the world...but when I stepped in the huge store, I felt the smell of American supermarket. It was just the same as I remembered.
The merchandise there, are all huge, and most of all are from the states. The price was cheap for the big amount. But the registration fee (as it was members only store) was very expensive. It cost me 4000yen just to registrate, but I really wanted to go into the store so I registerd anyway. and I enjoyed looking around the store. I couldn't see it all, and I didn't have much money nor a car, so I just got a large bag of chocolate(cookie'n cream!). :) yum
I'll ask somebody who has a car to take me there again!! It's fun, must be more fun on weekdays when less ppl are there...

Tigers won tonite again. yaay

cloudy/sunny
I went out for drink last night with my senior worker. It was fun. We had tasty food and alcohol.

Today I got nothing to do...I wanna go to COSTCO but I got no friends to go with. I could go by myself though..
Anyway, I'm gonna do the make up!

and
by the way, I haven't seen any new messages on my msg board for a while..
I'm lonely so always waiting for being spoken to by somebody. :) So...anything, please tell me what you ate or didn't eat for dinner, lunch...what is troubling you right now, and...how you are doing, what's your favorite food, color, place...

okay, enjoy holidays, everybody!

xoxo

snuggling all day long...
I didn't step out of my room today.
I woke up at like 9:30am and...was just watching DVDs all the day.
It was very relaxing but kinda boring. :(
My body felt dull anyway though.

I might be going out for beer tonite.

These days I think a lot about my life. Why and how I should live, and what for...?
Regretting is the last thing I wanna do, u know. :)
So, just try to fulfill my life with lots of excitement and good stimulations, people, food, music, and art. Gotta earn money to make a living too, of course. Sacrifice a big part of my time for working and spend the rest precious time carefully, efficiently...
Geez, what am I talking about?

Relax, relax...it's holidays...

$$$
I'm spending TOO much money...((crying))
Shame on me!!!

What a stupid woman I am...am I forgetting
why I'm working in here?!

We are going to Disney sea in 2 wks...so Im gonna spend even more money-----

It's sad...but I'm a little looking forward to
seeing Donald Duck actually...hehe

jazzy days
I'm now listening to Roy Haynes Trio. It's so cool.:)

My boss flew to Silicon Valley for business this morning. The rest of this week will be liberated! But I wish I could go too...mmm

I lit the aroma candle of Lemon Pie...it smells so sweet that makes me relaxed.. It doesn't really match the jazz music though.

I'm planning to buy a comfy little sofa for my room. I need something to sit on besides these cushions.
I'm looking for a ivory/camel/cream color sofa with smooth cotton fabric. Of course at a low price...with high quality. hehe

Last Saturday I went to Yurakucho with Akiko to see the stage of STOMP. After having lunch we headed to the Tokyo International Forum? and the show was really cool. The guys of about 7 including 3 women, had amazing senses of rhythm and motion. I originally like drum and bass music, so it was very interesting as STOMP was totally about drum and percussion performance. I've always wanted to learn tap dance in fact...since the day I saw the stage of Tap Dogs years ago. They were truly COOL as well.

After saying good-bye to Akiko, who went shopping with her friends, I bought a pair of pants at SHIPS nearby.
Know what? Wearing jeans is prohibited at my company! even though we have uniforms...it's not even allowed to wear them on the way to the office. It's rediculous that they even take photos who wear jeans and dye their hair bright brown. I think our president went crazy or something. (shhhh)

weekend
I can't help being surprised how fast every weekend flies. Gotta go to office again tomorrow!

On Friday I played ping-pong after work with Ume-chan, with whom I play a lot these days. After playing about 1.5hr, I went home and went out to drink with other friends at 10pm to 1:30. It was fun.
Saturday was the BIG day for me!
I went to Yokohama International stadium for...a concert of Southern All Stars! ((applause))
It was really really really fun. They played lots of old songs as well as their newest ones. I got crazy there. I had always wanted to go, at least once before I die, then my sis got the tickets and my little dream came true just like that!
I wanna go again...I think I'm being addicted.
I got home before 11pm and had some drinks in the room on the 1st floor. We have a common room, so-called a community room in our apartment. It's the room provided by our company, for gathering and drinking there. It's a very big room with a very big liquid crystal display TV with tall speakers and a woofer, a fridge, vending machines, tables and cushions. It's really comfy...so I drank until 4am last night...
and today, I went to Omote-sando to have my hair cut. After that I walked around there, then I saw Miyake-kun of V6 interviewing the pedestrians. He was kinda short but cute looking guy.:)

zansho
It got really hot here in Kanto area too. I don't know why, but I'm losing my apetite! I couldn't eat my obento all today...This is a chance to get skinny. :) But I had a big cup of Banana Moca Cooler from the cafeteria of company...

The guy living in the room just under mine, is making something with a hammer.kinda noisy!:I

On weekends I went to Yokohama studiam with my old friend in kindergarden! but it was toooo crowded. Even though we had tickets, they didn't let us in! The ticket we had was for any day of 3days and it was not accepted when crowded too much...and Tigers won that night!!! geez.
As we had nothing to do, we just had dinner and said good bye. I'm sure most of the audiences there were temporary Tigers fans...damnit.

Late at that night, I went to the movie with my friend and saw "Confession of the Dangerous mind". It was pretty good inspite of a poor reputation.
Sam Rockwell was cool.

I'm getting hungry...ggg

back in here
I came back! There was a terrible traffic jam on the highway and it took 1.5hr while it normally takes only 1hr from the airport to Atsugi. The worse thing was that the guy who seated just next to me smelled like alcohol...

It's much cooler here than Kansai. there's almost 10degrees difference!

2 days ago I saw the movie "HERO" with Hana. It was a really nice movie. The spirit itself was really cool. Each assasine was truly cool.
and the colors and sound are harmonized very well, especially the sound of raindrop was so nice.
The costumes looked great also.
I liked it a lot!

I gotta go to work tomorrow. My frige is empty so I gotta go to the grocers after work. Wait, isn't my wallet empty too...?
