We took Vasileios, the crazy Greek intern that we all know and love, to the local izakaya for his going away party, tonight. The bill came to 20000Yen for 7 of us. That’s $240CDN! Oh, what it means to have a job/income. We’ll miss that guy, he’s always fun to hang out with. Right now,… Continue reading 1:20am

Catching up; Dinner with “Mayu” & Friends :)
I’m at work right now, tired after having only a few hours of sleep last night – on the floor, not on the bed. Yes, I was suppose to get lots of things done (that *really* need to be done), last night. Little did I know, that when Alex entered my room around 9:30pm, that… Continue reading Catching up; Dinner with “Mayu” & Friends 🙂
sitting on a train, heading back from Tokyoo – the end of my Obon holiday
Yes, I’m using my laptop on the train, again… I swear, I’m only a geek *most* of the time…. plus, this wireless internet is so fun to abuse! It’s odd, I didn’t take many more pictures on my trip. A quick rundown of what I did since last writing: – Thursday – watched Pirates of… Continue reading sitting on a train, heading back from Tokyoo – the end of my Obon holiday
wearing Jinbei, kinda tipsy
Today, I got to dress up in samurai armour. How cool is that? =) And before I even got to type anything, I fell asleep. hah! Why am I so tired, this week?! O.o August 13 – 11:50am; I am guilty of indulging in a glutinous sleep of 10+ hours… So, as I was saying…… Continue reading wearing Jinbei, kinda tipsy
Lying on Jeff’s tatami mat (lower back is sore…)
Jeff was gracious enough to provide accomodations. Have to leave soon. Going to meet Hana (she stayed at our house in Canada a few years ago) in Shinjuku. 12:49am I just got out of the shower (at Hana’s house!!) This is a big surprise: I’m sitting in a room that Hana’s family has prepared for… Continue reading Lying on Jeff’s tatami mat (lower back is sore…)
Sitting on a train, using my wireless Internet and playing w/my laptop :)
I’m with a couple country boys from Gifu (dorm mates), and we’re heading to one of the largest cities in the world. Typhoon Etau (“storm cloud” – not Japanese) is creeping across Japan. We left Anpachi just before it hit. It will probably catch up with us in Tokyo. I barely got any sleep last… Continue reading Sitting on a train, using my wireless Internet and playing w/my laptop 🙂
What a crazy-insane costly day!
Today, me and Ben… oh, sorry (Pat) – “Ben and I” took the train to Nagashima Spaland – a super cool amusement/water park. Why did we decide to do this? Well, it was Pat’s birthday, and the plan was to meet Pat and some other guys (Adam, Wojtek, Edwin, and some french people I’ve never… Continue reading What a crazy-insane costly day!
Waiting for my laundry…(again)
Today, I saw the best fireworks I’ve ever seen, (and possibly, ever will see) in my entire life. Sugoi! The day started early, meeting at the train station and waiting for friends to arrive. Once we were all together, in Gifu city, we headed off to Inuyama Castle (in Aichi), where we had a very… Continue reading Waiting for my laundry…(again)
Just got back from Sanyo Solar Ark Festival….
Holy crap! I’m SOO CUT! The festival was awesome! Some of the nurses that we met last week came and hung out with us for a bit. Also, Sanyo has these festivals every year (apparently) and every year they hire brazillian dancers. I’ve heard of the term G-string before, but never “T-back.” They’re similar. And… Continue reading Just got back from Sanyo Solar Ark Festival….
Lying on my bed typing, putting off a decent sleep yet again….
It’s a mystery to myself why I choose to do this. I even have a report tomorrow. *sigh* Well, I don’t think this entry will be too long. The weekend. Mainly I want to catch up on the weekend. Let’s start with Friday. One of Ben’s co-workers (Yamada-san) is scheduled to move to Osaka and… Continue reading Lying on my bed typing, putting off a decent sleep yet again….
