Wow, Totally neglected updating this thing...
...just like I thought I would haha.
I've kinda been busy and all with school and all my buisness but I thought since I have time, and since I dont always get to talk to people that may read this that I would give a lonnnnggg update on what has happened since forever ago~
It's been 4 months since I've moved here to Fukuoka Japan for school and so far so good? I've had my little moments of wanting to go home and what not but all in all this is a great expierence for me. I've met all kinds of people, had a lot of fun, and am in general enjoying the place I live (Even if it is getting hella freaking cold.)
Last I updated was in August at some time, right when I had come home from Korea after meeting up with my family for a really nice little family reuniuon whilst we got my sister situated in her dorm. Since then there's been all kinds of stuff going on so I'll try and recap as much as I can though I've probably forgotten a majority of it since...yeah that was a little while ago. So as it is obvious, Britney, Tammy, and KC have all left me (insert serious sob fest) They were seriously my go to girls and I still miss them like mucho, but we catch up from time to time on Facebook (esp. Britney and I~) I miss my party buddies though, we have so many good memories~
So anyway, 2 nights before Tammy left, Adrian, TimTam and I partied like no tomorrow at the usual place. Tammy had this adorable moment where she told me she loved me and the proceeded to do her belly dancing dance around me while I as usual when drinking laughed like no tomorrow. I'm actually pretty sure she told me she loved me more then like 10 times, but then again she was drinking pretty hard core for a little chinese chick sooooo...haha either way I knew she meant it. Adrian and I bid her farewell around 3 or something and continued to party it up as the fantastic duo we are before we probably hit up Mcdonalds as is our routine at 6 or so. The following night was Tammy's last night and thus we all went out to dinner including a new student from the short term version of my school named Matya~. Together we ate Yakitori, some horse (dont knock it till you try it...sorry slurpee) and talked about all the memories we made. Seriously Tammy is one amazingly wild chick for someone who looks tiny and adorable and not insane at all. We took one last Purikura and then we kissed our goodbye's on the train when we got to Matya and Tammy's stop trying to hold back tears cause we're totally girls.
So Tammy heads home to Taiwan. (sigh)
I think Adrian and I headed to Fubar once more after she left before we decided we should stay out of clubs for a little while to save our livers and our wallets. Matya and I hit it off after going shopping together and so I had spent a good couple days hanging out with her and just enjoying not being the only girl from the US of A. Also during this little club break I had met a couple new girls in my dorm and had been hanging out with them as well, in which we all sat and watched Paranormal Activity the japanese version and just had an all around good time. Esp. when Seina told me she "liked dog" As in she liked dogs and I confused her heavy accented english for "I like dick." and had the best laugh over trying to explain that i heard wrong. Thats still a joke going on between us.
It came to a night that Fubar was hosting a 'Seifuku' or 'uniform' night and so together with Adrian (partner in crime) and Matya all dressed up in school uniforms, we headed out for a night at the club that ended with me and Matya on the train trying not to sleep and then passing out the moment we got home. I had also apparently felt up my boyfriend which if some people dont know by now I have one, and thus the next morning woke up to a text along the lines of "Hey Baby hey Baby hey." I LOL'd so hard.
After that it was back to school and no clubs, since I had switched to morning classes that meant that now I had to basically wake up at 6-6:30 to get ready so I could catch the 7:51 train to school. Also I had gotten an ear infection that included blood and gross stuff coming out of my ear on a constant and so I was miserable and begging for my mommy. I think my days consisted of me going to school with like a million tissues in hand, cleaning my ear every two seconds or it would leak, and then heading home to curl up and sleep on a towel so i wouldnt ruin my sheets and stuff. Shit sucked...seriously. But luckily it's finally cleared up and I'm all genki again~ Yay.
...I really dont think anything intresting happened after that...
Around the beginning of this month? ending of last month? A new student from Texas came to my school named Jazlaan and within the first night of meeting him we went out for drinks, hit up Kareoke, and then wandered around doing god knows what at all hours of the night. He's a seriously cool dude, and gay, which is major plus on my side cause he's like my go to girl when Matya leaves next month (Donttt leeavvee me) A couple days after that we all met up with Micaela and went out for shabu shabu at an MK resturant and had a good couple laughs before I left to go get my self my baby, AKA my Ps3 which is the love of my life. I laughed my ass when I found out that assassin's creed was all in japanese (which should be duh cause i live in japan) and played whilst laughing since he sounded all japanese romance novel with his deep sexy japanese voice. After that it was back to routine until it was decided Adrian Micaela and I would hit up our usual place...which I'm starting the think my blog is all about me partying but I dont really think anyone would find my studying intresting so...yeah...either way, I met new people, hit up a club with them after, had awkward conversations in the mcdonalds and then headed home to sleep the day away.
This brings us to where we are now...I think...i probably skipped out on a million things but jesus my memory isnt that good. Tuesday I went Halloween shopping with Matya at Donki Hotei and then Wednesday was break so I went and hung out with my boyfriend. Thursday I went shopping again with Matya for winter clothes since it's balls cold here, and we went and had sushi before parting ways. Today is currently Friday, I went to school as usual, groaning when i woke up at 7 and then rushed around to get ready for class. Since Jazlaan and his room mate Trevor live right next to the school I stop in every morning to chit chat before Jazlaan and I head to class together since he too has morning classes just he's on the 2nd floor and I'm on the 3rd. We apparently now have assigned seating to which Im next to the weirdest Nepalli kids ever and basically across from Chou-san and Sou-san who are two chinese kids who think it's hiliarious to make faces at me or whisper werid things...Sou-san tried to eat my eraser today since it looks like a crepe and Chou-san was just being....Chou-san. Afterwards I hung out with Jazlaan and Trevor before I skipped to the train station to head home.
I still have yet to recieve my moms package (boohoo) and up until like an hour ago had no real plans for tonight but Sakko being an awesome friend might have got me a job and so tonight I am headed over there to see how it all goes. Fingers crossed I hope this works out!
Tomorrow is Halloween night at FuBar and thus...obviously I'm going, along with Adrian and Jazlaan and Jazlaan's Boo so Hopefully tomorrow night goes well~ So yeah...boring life? Yeah kinda...but I like it :D

Home sweet home
As usual...I'm tired haha
Then again when am I not?
So Friday I left for Korea on a mission to surprise my sister since she was finally moving to korea to start school. She had a suspicion she said but honestly she had no clue I was going to meet her in Korea, nor did she know my mother was going to go as well. In fact I hadnt known my mother was going to be going so it was supposed to be a surprise for me as well but she had set up a responce email and hadnt expected me to email her...but I did...so her surprise was ruined several hours before we met up. I was excited for meeting up with my family and when they waltzed on through the gate I was so happy to see everyone. My sister didnt hear me nor see me the first time I called out however my parents did and when she looked up to see who my parents were talking to she exclaimed that "she knew it"...yeah whatever knew it my ass.
After meeting up we all packed into a taxi and realized as we drove the hour and some minutes to the hotel that driving in Korea was much like driving in China...wild and crazy and almost completely rule-less. Seriously the way they drove sometimes nearly gave us a heart attack, U-turns and speeding and all the honking. Anyway, We got to our nice hotel, checked in, and went to our rooms to relax for a little before we went out to go find a place to eat. We ended up at a Korean BBQ place where we ordered a load of food and caught up a tiny bit over some Bi-bim-bap and a bunch of meat. Friday wasnt so eventful being as they were bound to be jet lagged and it was getting kind of late so we went back to the hotel after eating and my sister and I watched Mnet and Superstar K and then stayed up forever chatting like we used to.
Saturday we went to get my sister checked into her dorm and to start shopping for the things she would need for said dormitory, we headed to a couple places, popped around to buy things and ate a boat load of food along the way. That was partially my fault since I was craving korean and stuffing my face like a little piglet. We headed around the markets to see what was there and then made our way back to the hotel in the evening to relax a little. Sunday was shopping for the rest of her things and then finally moving into her dorm with all of her stuff, and meeting her roommate. I'm proud of my sister and I know this is going to help her grow so I wish her luck in her adventure. This is where we parted ways and I teared up because this has always been her dream and it was all coming true. I know she'll do well.
I spent the night alone in the hotel, curled up in bed and then had to wake up at 4:40 am so I could catch the bus that takes me to the airport since its an hour away. I said goodbye to my mother where i teared up again because I'm the biggest mama girl and then I rode the bus to the airport where I got all checked in and then headed for my gate. I ate my last bowl of Bi-Bim-Bap in Korea and then boarded my flight. I sat next to a korean boy named Kim Hyunjoon who was also a foreign student in Japan but who lived in Nagasaki. We chatted through out the flight about all sorts of things before we landed in Japan and everyone deplaned. HyunJoon stayed with me as we went through customs, talking away with me even as we got our suitcases and then even as we rode the bus and then the train where we exchanged numbers before we parted ways when he got off at Hakata.
I snaked my way through Tenjin back to the Nishitetsu line, got my train and then danced my way back here to my dorm where I layed around for a little. I hadnt realized how much I missed home so much until I got back, I really enjoy where I live and I love living in Japan in general, Korea is totally not my city, it's fun but it's not my city. Now I'm watching Pretty little liars, lazing around and probably about to do some homework since I have a bunch to get done, not to mention a test tomorrow and classes...ugh...I'm tired from just thinking about it.

Uggghhhh So sleeeepppyyy
I'm supposed to be cleaning...
But....
I can do that later, I thought to recap the night for my mom and stuff
Since when on skype I dont always remember everything in that moment.
So Friday I spent the night at the girls dorm, we jammed out in Tammy's room, had a couple drinks, and just LOL'd while we made Tam listen to weird american songs like "oh you touch my tra la la" and all those Gunther songs. At one point while Tammy was chatting with someone KC and I went out to the balcony since the weather was fantastic and we just wanted to chat up. We were talking about her boyfriend and Jack and other people's relationships when we looked down and there was a house below flashing what looked like morse code, we stood out there trying to figure out if they were flashing S.O.S or if it was just a wonky light. Finally though we said F it and turned to go inside where I curled up at the bottom of Tammy's bed while she slept and KC skyped her boyfriend. At some point I fell asleep and when I woke it was god knows what time and I was wiggling up to sleep next to Tam.
Later KC and Tammy went to go get food from the lawson while i continued to saw logs since I was so tired and so lazy. When they returned I was handed a burger by mama Tammy and I finally got up to chat with the girls and to watch viral videos like the mcdonalds drive through rap. Jack messaged me and then called me, and KC gave me this sly look while i yelled for her not to look at me and slipped into the hallway. We talked for a little before he went to bed and I shuffled back into Tammy's room to hang out for a little longer. It was decided they were going to dinner with KC's grandmother at around 6 or something and then we would meet up at 9 in Tenjin to head to the bar/club, I messaged Adrian with the details and then went home to relax since it was only 2 in the afternoon. I took a long bath, and then continued to watch 'Pretty little liars' while I did my makeup because now I can't stop watching it. I stopped in the cafeteria to eat dinner before coming back and skyping my mom while I got dressed and what not. I have no boobs so i struggled to pin the top of my dress like an idiot while my mom laughed at me...thanks mom.
Then I was off, nearly running since I was running late, and then dying as I got stares on the train for being dressed the way I was. I shrugged it off and went to meet up with the group at the bottom of the station and then we were off for the bar/club trying to avoid the rain as it was on and off pouring. Halfway there these two women walked up to us and asked where we were going, we told them and they asked to come along, the issue is we didnt realize this until later but they were a mother daughter pair and the daughter was only 14. When we found out we were all extreamly weirded out because what mother would take their 14 year old daughter to a bar/club? She even let her daughter dance with older men and I heard at one point she was making out with someone, That royally ticked me off. Usually I tried to pull her away from guys but ugh whatever, she kept dissapearing.
Either way back to where I was, We got to the bar/club and paid our 500yen and headed for the bar to chat with the bartender as we got our first drinks. It was one of the other bartenders birthday, Let's call her K, and she was getting her first birthday shot of the night so I piped up that I wanted to join, Adrian also agreed and said he'd pay for my shot and his, so the bartender, who i will call J, filled up our shots. I'm okay with normal shots, but this shit was insane, it had a small shallow bowl that was filled with an alcholic drink and then the shot of whatever that was in the middle like an island. We yelled out cheers and Happy birthday before downing it all, tasted horrible but whatever, we all highfived (the group who had done shots since there was probably 8 of us) and then I went over to KC and Tammy where they were talking. We had a moment where we shared this look over the mother daughter pair, since we all totally do not agree with that but then I was back at the bar to ask for paper towels for the drink we spilled just a little.
When I went up they were filling up these cute little glasses of champaine for another cheers to K's birthday, I wasn't part of their little group and nor did I know any of them but I was handed a drink by this guy with a huge grin who had done the shots earlier with us. So I downed my little thing of champaine, thanked them and went back to help clean up, Dont worry mom I didnt get wasted and I nursed several drinks through out the night, I had no plans to get shit faced for reals. We talked, we danced and then finally it started to fill up with people, of course with some I knew since we go there often, and they greeted me excitedly. We all decided it was bar time and so we danced our way back there where I had this great conversation with this woman at the bar who was extreamly friendly. We chatted over 'sex on the beach' which definatly doesnt taste as good as when my mom makes it, and then I was back on the dance floor where I met Greg, this navy guy, who was hilarious. I told him I couldn't dance with him really since I have someone I liked and he was there, so Greg danced on me instead while I laughed. He was a sweetheart.
After a while Tammy and KC left to go home since I'm guessing Tam was tired, and Adrian and I settled at the bar to talk to K and J and Jack who had come at 11, and with other people who were swimming around. These girls offered me a glass of champaine AGAIN, since I must be popular, and then after when they got a cake to celebrate for K I was fed by these strangers chocolate and strawberries and some cake before they shoved a guys face in it and cake got everywhere. I had to clean my shoes while I laughed since these girls were wasted and saying all kinds of funny shit. I dissapeared on to the dance floor where I got totally humped by this girl who could get way down there with the booty bouncin, she was a riot and I danced with her for a while until I ran off to go harrass Jack for a moment. I covered my face as the door girl gave us a sly look and then ran off after kissing him to go dance some more and then hang at the bar talking and laughing with the drunks. Greg reappaeared and asked if I wanted shots, He didnt want one but he handed me money and told me to get shots and have a good night.
I split the shots with Adrain and K for another birthday shot and at some point she asked me if it was sexy time since I had asked her to dance with me. I laughed. I did dance a little with her, and I got to dance with Jack when he was on break and again later, but finally the night was up and the bar/club was closing. I couldnt believe I had stayed here till closing again and J was making fun of me since my voice was all messed up from yelling over music. Jack called me over and then all his coworkers started to call me to tease and I covered my face up as I made my way to Jack. A coworker who I will call T called me cute and handed me a flower since they were handing out flowers from K's giant flower display at the door. I laughed and then was told it was time to go so I kissed Jack and shuffled down the stairs with the crowd of people and Adrian and Kin-san. We made our way to the family mart next door, got sandwiches and then talked as we made our way to the Mcdonalds since we were craving for it. There were all the party-goers at Mcdonalds, in this long huge line, and when we finally got up we ordered our 3 million sandwiches and then went upstairs to eat.
There were these girls passed out two tables down from us, and we laughed about them as we munched, and then another person came to sleep 1 table down. Mcdonalds is the haeven for sleepy drunks apparently. It was around 7 something when we finally left, Kin-san probably thinking Adrian and I were crazy as all get out since we talk about weird shit but whatever Kin-san is weird too. We caught the first train out, lucky it was an express and then we went home, me nearly ramming into my door when I tried to open it and take off a shoe at the same time. I skyped my family, and then flopped onto my bed to pass out with all my stuffed animals. It was a long ass night but it was fun and I got cake and champaine and gah it was hella fun.
Now I have to do homework and watch Pretty little liars and clean.
and eat...Mmmmm goldfish
But....

NUMERO 2~ read part 1 first please!
So to continue~
The following Saturday (which was the 13th) was Tam's birthday and so I met up with the girls to get ready at their dorm, borrowed a dress from KC, ate some cake, and then we all headed out to meet Mina and a couple others for Izakaya. We ate, and talked and had some pre-game drinks with everyone in Yakuin before parting ways with like half the group to go to Tenjin to hit up a club again since of course it was Tammy's birthday and she needed party. I didnt drink that much this time, I was really in the mood to be schwasted so I kept my drinks to a minimum, plus I'm not really into loosing my liver or something soooo haha. Mommy be proud of me! Lol. Anyway, when we got there Nomihodai was no longer 500 yen so we put out the 2000 and then shoved all of our stuff into a locker so we could dance. Which, the guy at the door was a hottie and I was eyein him but more about that later~
It was already kinda packed when we got there, and so we picked a spot to dance and started doing our thing, Halfway through I noticed Kenta was there but was dancing with another girl and clearly avoiding me since whenever I was anywhere near him, if it was at the bar or on the dance floor, he would move the opposite directing, I laughed so hard cause he was really trying to avoid me and I didnt give a shit. It's not like we were dating, or that I thought he was mine, so i thought it was funny he was acting like I was going to chase him or something. I didnt care, that shits stupid, he wasnt even that good looking so I dont see why he made such a big deal, I just came to dance stupid. Halfway through the night they left together and KC made a dirty comment and I laughed even harder, I love her. Tammy and Britney also left since Tammy was tired and it's her birthday so she can do what she wants, so KC and I stayed since we were still wanting to dance.
There was this guy we named Jesus since he kinda looked like Jesus and since KC wanted to dance with him I made her, basically i shoved her against him and ran to hide after grinning and telling her to thank me later. I found someone to dance with and for a while danced with them until door boy came to clean up the table next to me and I started to chat him up. He was adorable and said he had wanted to chat me up too so we talked for a little and then he had to go back to work, He told me to wait till the last 30 min and then we could dance together so I said okay and made it a point to wait, which I love KC who waited with me. She is my boo i swear. But anyway, I headed up to the bar where Jack (door boy who is actually named Shinji but uses Jack too) bought me a shot and the other bartender cheered us on. At one point KC and I pretended to be lesbians to get this dude to leave us alone, and then continued with that little lie ith other boys since we didnt want to dance with them. One was married but said his wife didnt mind cheating and me and KC gave him this look like 'wtf' before we told we were totally lesbians and only liked each other. haha
Also at some point the bartender colored in half of my tattoo, which I lol'd and threw a fit for him to color in the other half...he never did, he only drew more hearts around my tattoo and then laughed when i whined at him that my tattoo was totally lopsided now. Afterwards I had someone spill my drink on me, I spilt someones drink and I made 3 guys dance on me like girls while i pretended to be a guy and had a good time. Poor whatever that dudes name was whose drink I spilt and whose necklace my fingers got stuck in, He was totally my GF though as he shook it on me and i laughed my ass off. Finally though and I mean FINALLY I got to dance with Jack to which as I've mentioned I dont dance like little japanese girls, nor does KC and she was on one guy while I was on Jack and there was someone pressed between us, we seperated a little later but I was laughing at KC's face as she winked at me. After Jack scribbled his number on my arm and I told him I would definalty message or call and then KC and I went for MCdonalds since we had to wait for the train anyway and we had this deep conversation and I love her seriously.
I messaged Jack and we started messaging back and forth before deciding to meet later that day after I wasnt so tired and about to pass out. I went home, threw things off my bed skyped my mom to squeal over the cuteness of Jack and then flopped over and went to sleep. I later woke up at like 12 or something and lazed around until I had to meet up with Jack and then I was back in Tenjin chatting with him about all kinds of crazy things since Im crazy as hell in general. The thing was that I basically had no voice from the night before where I was screaming over music and being more insane then usual, so it was kind of funny to hear me talk and half the time i had to cough to get a semi normal voice to come out. We ate and talked for a bit before deciding to go to Karaoke, which we a horrible idea because 1. his friends worked there and were working and gave me sneaky sly glances and 2. i had no voice to begin with. For the record I am not easy nor will i ever be so its even more embaressing when his friends were giving us their little glances. We headed off to the Karaoke room with me covering my face and laughing.
Because at that point I had already missed the train home we were at Karaoke until like almost 6 in the morning. He sang most of time since I literally had no voice but it was all good cause he sang the begining of Barbie girl to me and that made my night completely. He later complained it was gay and I laughed and laughed and laughed cause he had done it high voice and all. At one point he took a nap while i zoned out cause I was tired and he had barely had any sleep, so I let him sleep on my lap while i petted his head like a cat...I miss my cats...He was like a cat Hahahaha. My mom is probably going to think that is weird but whatever, I didnt mind since I had zoned out and I couldnt sing anyway. We left at 6 he walked me to the station and we said our little goodbyes. I came home and passed out. After when I woke up I did some school work before lazing around and skyping YahYah and my Mom to talk about how my date went. I love my mama <3 and YahYah <3
I met Jack again Tuesday, which was yesterday to just hang out, He's so lazy it's so cute. I met his friends and stuff but we mainly just hung out and chilled around here and there with him trying to make me fat. We weirded out the starbucks girl at one point since he tried to pay and I wouldnt let him, he already handed over the money when I pulled mine out and then demanded for her to use my money not his, she just laughed and took my money while I grinned happily at my win and shoved Jack's money back at him. After hanging out again I caught the last train home and passed out at home until recently since I basically just woke up. I'm still sleepy but I have school work and I might meet up with the girls later since Britney is leaving soon (like Thursday) and I'm going to miss her. KC also leaves soon but she's coming back next year so I'm looking forward to that! Tam doesnt leave till september so I still got her to harass for the time being in which since I start school next week and KC is leaving soon we are going back out to party it up one last time as a group so I can go hit up on Jack, so KC and Tammy and I can dance together for the last time in a while, so Kin-san can party up with us, and so Adrian can hit on that girl that works at the bar even though she's the cold type. Can't wait to see how that goes~
Gosh I'm so sleepy now, and theres weird ass commercials on TV...gjonewokfdshef and I have school work....I'm going now. Hope everyone is doing well.
The following Saturday (which was the 13th) was Tam's birthday and so I met up with the girls to get ready at their dorm, borrowed a dress from KC, ate some cake, and then we all headed out to meet Mina and a couple others for Izakaya. We ate, and talked and had some pre-game drinks with everyone in Yakuin before parting ways with like half the group to go to Tenjin to hit up a club again since of course it was Tammy's birthday and she needed party. I didnt drink that much this time, I was really in the mood to be schwasted so I kept my drinks to a minimum, plus I'm not really into loosing my liver or something soooo haha. Mommy be proud of me! Lol. Anyway, when we got there Nomihodai was no longer 500 yen so we put out the 2000 and then shoved all of our stuff into a locker so we could dance.

Gosh I'm so sleepy now, and theres weird ass commercials on TV...gjonewokfdshef and I have school work....I'm going now. Hope everyone is doing well.
It's been forever...Sorry! My life part 1
It's not that I have been busy in particular, it's just general laziness...so yeah haha.
This is probably going to be an extreamly long boring post for people but I dont care, I'm writing this for my Mama and my family so they know how I've been and whats been going on since I dont talk to every single one of them everyday.
As of right now it is NatsuYasumi...I dont remember if I've said that before but whatever let me just make the point thats it's summer break for me so I've been going around with my friends having a blast. I dont remember which Saturday it was, I think it was the one after the start of my NatsuYasumi, but the girls wanted to go to a club and I was down in a heartbeat. I love going to clubs, not for picking up guys or any of that, but I love to dance, so I was ready to go happily. I met up with Adrian before hand to catch a meal and then went to meet up with the girls KC, Tammy and Britney at the station. We met up also with a friend of Tammy's named Mina who was extreamly friendly and then we headed for the club of which I will not name because...no evidence LOL. Kidding, I dont care, but I dont know if someone who lives near me will read this and then show up next time I go so yeah...whaattevverr.
Here in Japan they have something magical called Nomihodai, you pay a basic fee and then you can drink as much as you want till a certain time, which is usually 3 or 5. At the club/bar it was only 500 yen which is hella cheap and so we all jumped on Nomihodai and got a drink to nurse while we talked and waited for the club to fill up since it was nly around 9:30-10. There were a couple other foreigners there, didn't talk to them cause it's not like we're friends haha and I hate when sometimes Japanese people think that just cause I'm a foreigner and someone else is a foreigner suddenly we're Bff's...It doesnt work like that Japan...otherwise I would think all of you are friends...and your not LOL. So anyway, I think it was 2 or 3 girls who were already kinda on the edge of drunk when we came in at 9:30-10, we kind of giggled at them cause they were soooooo crazy and danced horribly, nothing against them but it just looked awkward and it's either your the best most awesomest dancer when you drink or this awkward thing of arms and legs with an ass that moves to the beat of your own special ed drum. I dont know if they could hear they beat but if they did they didnt care as they flailed around...whatever party hard girls as long as your happy haha.
Finally around 11:30-12 people started pouring in, and our drinks started piling up, we all decided this was the time to dance and so on the empty dance floor all 6 of us started to jam. The music was good, occasionally it would go to weird house music or like a slow beat and everyone had that moment of "how do I dance to this" before the good music would come back and we'd go back to doing our thing. Nothing against house music but...what do I do to that? Most of the time back home when house music would play, where it doesnt really have a steady beat or a heavy bass I would step off the floor with my girls, because seriously people looked like they were having a seizure to the music and I wasnt about to join in on that. Anyyway so the club started to pick up, other people started to dance and we all continued to drink and enjoy ourselves. We of course got the weirdest looks though since we were a bunch of foreigners that didnt dance like all the other girls in the club, AKA two stepping, and basically at one point I had both KC and britney grind me into the mirror on the stage as I laughed and we made this giant trian of nasty. It was embaressing not that I think back on it buutttt we had been drinking so whatever.
At one point at the bar KC puked on me, not all over me thank the lord, but just a little on my shoulder. It was after some girl had bought us jose shots and jose doesnt taste that great even when you've been drinking all night so i dont blame her. I just laughed it off, took my shirt off and switched it inside out while the bartender laughed, and then I took another shot for someone else. I know this makes me sound like an alcholic or a drunk but for reals I'm not, I hadnt gotten to party hard on my birthday so this was my chance to, plus I danced it all off. I dont think I sat down since 11:30 and my thighs were sore the next day from all the dancing but LOL it was fun. I met several guys who exchanged mail with me, but who I really didnt talk to again besides one named Kenta who I will get to later. The girls left the club, Adrian and I continued to party for a little and then we too went home where i passed out on his floor and he took good care of me. He is the bestest big fake brother ever.
When I arrived home the next day I just layed around which isnt that exciting really, but Kenta and I were texting so I wasnt so bored. Then Wednesday we went out again, It was just Adrian, KC, and I since Brit and Tam were on a trip together so we went out to have a couple drinks and then go to karaoke, where we sang everything from Eminem to Spice girls. Along the way we met several drunks who we asked if they were okay and at one point met this girl and her friend who had face planted into the brick ground and puked in her own hair. I knew I wouldnt want to be in that situation so I asked if they were good and tried to help out a little before KC, Adrian, and I headed home. Wednesday was a good day actually, I had fun, i love those two for letting me change the words to songs so that it sounded like I was mentally retarded.
...Sooooo This is long, I'm cutting this in half, This is part 1 obviously. Now to part 2

It has beeeeenn a whiillleee
Sorry~
I haven't been super busy, but at the same time I kind of have...If that makes sense.
Everyday I wake up, go to school, hang out with friends, come home, eat, study and sleep. Thats busy...if your me haha. But since Today was offically the start of NatsuYasumi (summer break) I thought I should definatly write about how things have been and what not living in Japan. Nothing insane has really happened that has made me think "what the hell Japan" besides Yamakasa and a lot of ass, but I have thought things are funny because let's face it japan is kind of up there in the funny scale to me.
Because in the US we really have nothing like it, I love Japanese gags, sure we have puns and japan has pun like jokes and yada yada, but when I say gags I mean like Tanoshingo or something. It's funny to me because Japan is usually big on being polite and not making an ass out of themselves but Gag men really dont give two shits and tend to just do wild crap. Last night on the Gag show I like, one guy sang that 'and I will always love you' song in a horrible voice and then picked up a blowup doll to sing to before pulling some wrestling move on it and then hovering over it on all fours while he shook his head around and made a stupid face. I laughed so hard because wtf japan, why is he doing this? I love gags here so much.
But besides that, Yesterday I went out to meet a friend of mine in Kurume with Adrian. There is a festival going on in both Kurume and Ogori right now with fireworks and what not so we wanted to go check it out. Before we stopped for Yakiniku which was sooo good, and a drink, while we talked about all sorts of things including the hot waiter I was eyeing and who Chie-san(my friend) then tried to get to come over to the table so she could see his face. In the end she told another waiting to make him walk around by our table and Chie-san concluded yes he was cute and then we were back to eating while Chie-san and Adrian gave me glances when he was near...esp. Adrian being the big bro he is haha. So finally we leave, get in Chie-san's car and she drives us to the festival before leaving since she really wasnt that intrested.
Me and Adrian being adventurous foreingers wanted to go still even though it was raining (not hard) and so we followed the crowd of 9786567834 couples all dressed in Yukata's. Which is adorable, esp. the kids in Yukata's because that just makes my heart explode they are so cute. So we walked around, watched some fireworks, got good luck charms, I got a fortune and then we wandered around the 6 million stalls looking at all the food and games. I got to eat the most delicious strawberry candy which is 3 strawberries dipped in liquid hard candy and left to get hard. The strawberries inside the hard candy are warm and so sweet and my god i want another right now. To bad I'm in my dorm...ugh.
Afterwards we walked in the drizzle all of like an hour to the trainstation and then caught our train home. I sat next to this kid and his mother when adrian got off at Ogori and I was then stared at by said kid in hilarious ways, his mother apologized so many times for me being stared at, having my space invaded, or my favorite, him prodding me with his foot. I LOL japan, I LOL. Luckily after when I got off at my stop It wasnt raining anymore and my short walk home was kind of nice. Right now I'm about to head off to Cosumosu to get softner and detergent before I come home and shower since I'm going out with the girls from Ohashi dorm and Adrian to a club tonight where they have Nomihodai for 1000 yen. I'm excited since I havent hung out with the girls since I was in Ohashi so It'll be good to go out and have some fun.
I know I said I would make a video of my dorm and I will try again sometime this week after I really scrub down and clean since I dont want to show anyone my mess haha. And maybe I'll make a video about going to Cosumosu now since I mean you never know someone maybe curious...Idk Im bored.
And I'll try and upload photos of things here tomorrow but if not, you can always look on FB...if you have my FB.

The strawberries inside the hard candy are warm and so sweet and my god i want another right now. To bad I'm in my dorm...ugh.
Afterwards we walked in the drizzle all of like an hour to the trainstation and then caught our train home. I sat next to this kid and his mother when adrian got off at Ogori and I was then stared at by said kid in hilarious ways, his mother apologized so many times for me being stared at, having my space invaded, or my favorite, him prodding me with his foot. I LOL japan, I LOL. Luckily after when I got off at my stop It wasnt raining anymore and my short walk home was kind of nice. Right now I'm about to head off to Cosumosu to get softner and detergent before I come home and shower since I'm going out with the girls from Ohashi dorm and Adrian to a club tonight where they have Nomihodai for 1000 yen. I'm excited since I havent hung out with the girls since I was in Ohashi so It'll be good to go out and have some fun.
I know I said I would make a video of my dorm and I will try again sometime this week after I really scrub down and clean since I dont want to show anyone my mess haha. And maybe I'll make a video about going to Cosumosu now since I mean you never know someone maybe curious...Idk Im bored.
And I'll try and upload photos of things here tomorrow but if not, you can always look on FB...if you have my FB.

Ahhh~ ごめん！
ごめんなさい！
I haven't written much! Sorry! I have been busy, but I thought today to blog.
Blog about what?
About things I find intresting~ Haha.
But first, a quick update on my oh so boring life. Everyday I catch my train at 12:21 to head to Ogori so I can get there on time, I've realized it's about a 15 minute ride with the express so I always end up at school a little early~ Being early here in Japan can be considered a good thing since being late anyway is kinda bad. I know if I am late to class they have said in the rules they will not let me attend class then, though they do let you still stay in class I'm pretty sure you get a stern talking to. Either way, Because my class (all of 2 people LOL) has to play catch up with the April class we only have 夏休み (Natsuyasumi or rather summer break) between the 6th and the 21st of next month, where as the other classes have from today to the 29th of next month. Me and my other classmate are basically working our asses off during their break so that when they come back on August 29th we can merge into their class.
It is...tiring haha.
So far we've gotten a lot of homework. We usually have 4 classes, from 1:15 to 4:40 and 2 teachers, 河の先生 and 石田先生. Kawano-sensei (河の) is wild and fun, She's an older woman and she really knows how to teach, she's quick but makes sure to explain every bit of Kanji, its fantastic because she's so funny and just fun in general. Ishida-sensei (石田) is this tiny adorable woman, She lives in Ohashi where I used to live and so yesterday I met her on the way home and had a great chat while we rode the express until I had to get off at Shimoori. She's sweet but stern and also a lot of fun, she always talks with me about weird things like eating chicken feet or eating bear meat in hokkaido, it's a lot of fun talking with her. All the teaches in NILS are pretty awesome, Fuchita-sensei also has wildly weird convos with me, like stuff about going to maid cafes and such, everyday I say good morning to him in a high pictched voice since he had once imitated a girl like that. Hirao-sensei is this bad ass fast talking little ball of energy of a woman, she teaches quick but well...and the most awesome thing? She rides a motorcycle...a red one, and today I watched her ride off into the sunset on it. It was pretty awesome, I think Im in love hahaha.
Susuki-sensei is this cute adorable woman who is very strict in teaching, she always makes me straighten my paper and such but I dont mind. She loves cats and stuff like me so we talk about that every once in a while. There's a couple more like Yano-sensei and Miyazaki-sensei but we'll just leave it at "awesome people, cool teachers, great coversations." So moving on, to sum up my days, I go to school, finish school, meet up with Adrian (sometimes Thorne or my other classmate) and go eat, or do something fun, after I come home, eat, talk and laugh and hang out with girls from my housing, and then sit around in my room watching TV...Like now...LOLOL at Harry potter in japanese, I have to laugh.
So on to things I find weird..yeah.
First of all since I watch a lot of TV...commercials are...Hilarious. For example...Chocoball:
The Chocoball commercial I usually see has to do with them on the top of a builiding...in which the bird turns around and suddenly has laser eyes as it nearly beams the one guy off of the tower, its kinda...funny as hell.
For your enjoyment...the banana commercial..no words....just watch it.
There's a million other commercials I love but to have them all here would be the longest video line ever. Just Youtube Japanese Commercials and you'll have laughs for hours.
Another thing I find intresting is Japanese people themselves.
For example...When getting on the train, they will sometimes book it to get inside and snag a seat. By book it I mean in the polietest way possible they sneak/slip past you as quickly as they can to get in the train car and then just toss them selves down like nothing happened. It's funny watching all the older ladies shuffle on quickly to steal a seat they eyed. Another thing, now this is just a culture shock kind of thing, "Bless you" or any other form of it is not said when someone sneezes, nothing in fact is said and so it is extreamly awkward when I sneeze and then expect a "bless you" or something like from my friend who I'm talking to...only for her to just go on talking like nothing happened. I think it's funny.
Also, just in general, how polite Japan is, just for a small bump on the shoulder I get 10+ "sumimasen" and 20+ bows.
Japanese Television...Yes this kind of ties in with the commercials bit but whatever I do what I want LOL.
Recently on Saturdays I get to watch my show...Aka Arashi ni Shiyagare which loosly translate into Arashi (the group name) Just do it. The show is all unscripted and improve, Arashi has no idea who is coming until the show has started and the guest arrives, funny insues. That however is not the point,(since it's not really crazy? and I just love arashi) Usually what seems to be possible as of lately is Doctor dramas, Music shows, or...these extreamly intresting "truth or lie" shows. What happens is they tell you a story, "such and such ate a 1 day expired icecream and when she woke up she had horrible red spots all over her skin, open sores, and she could hardly breathe" They provide a dramatized version of the story and then ask "Shiro? Kuro?" Shiro is truth Kuro is lie. That story turned out to be truth, but either way, sometimes the stories that they come up with are giggle worthy.
Other popular things on TV include lots of gag and then one really heartfelt story about something. This one show makes me die with cuteness of animals or other things, kittens and such and then makes me boohoo after with this sad story of an animals life. Best...show...ever.
One thing popular here in Japan is easy things.
If it's easy people like it. So thus cup noodles, cup curry, food you have to heat up, or anything of the like, people love. Esp. if it's easy AND cheap. Hair dye in the form of foam, full meals you can get heated up at the 7/11 or Lawson, anything of that sort, is the bomb diggity here. Also anything with a fancy name, or with fancy ingredients is pretty boss too. Stuff with english on it, or with big vitamin names "Arginine" or just "amino" is gobbled up here. Things that are "good for you" are also really popular. Collogine drinks, vitamin drinks, healthy drinks, energy jelly...all my friends like these sorts of things...as well as other people I have met, and I kinda like them too so LOL.
One last weird thing I find here is Japan...candy.
They have all kinds, gummies, hard candies gums...but that obviously isnt weird to me at all. No, no, no...it's what they flavor their candies. Okonomiyaki (which is a pancake like food with lettuce and squid and sauce and mayonaise and such) Beef, Chicken, Pork, Bacon, Fish, Spices, Curry, all these have been flavors for candies...it's ridiculous. There are the usual root beer, icecream, those kinds...but I have seen some pretty crazy ones.
Since tomorrow is Saturday I will clean my room and such, so when I'm done with that I will make a video on my room and where I live. Dont expect this epic room since I have yet to really decorate but I wanted to show friends and other family my room. So till then! Byyyeee
