I get my pictures from my friends so luckily there arent too many figfatheadshots of me. This is because my camera was the original digital model and I now use it to bang in nails. Most of the headshots are of Andy, hahaha. By the way, I have now moved into Andys house. Which is now our apartment. Its quite cool, but it looks a bit like a gaming store. Andy has mangas like you wouldnt believe. When I was moving in, we took three bags of them and sold them to Game Souko, which is our local gaming store. We have a playstation 2, A gamecube, A DS system, and a gameboy. Numerous games, animes, and related bits of plastic cover our shelves. I will post them in the September pictures. Our house is crazy because we both have so much stuff and it is NOT a big place. Its gonna be cheap though. We are gonna go to Thailand at the end of the year so we are saving.
About August....lets see, what a crazy month. First we had Neputa (see pictures.) It is a famous festival which we got to participate in, by pulling a float around by massive ropes and yelling YAYADOU at the top of our lungs. THen of course, following that, we went to karaoke...great fun as always.
Of course, this month we went to Tokyo. It was so much fun. We went to Disneyland for 2 days, once mainly in the day and once in the afternoon until it closed. It was great, but it was really hot. It got to about 40 on the second day but I think it was hotter on the first day and I dont know the temperature.
We walked around Harajuku, where I bought some presents for my family, and we dropped off Jeremy at the airport, because he went home to France. We miss him! What a guy. Jeremy is the best.
We went to Kudou Sans for Jeremys farewell.
We went to Fujisaki to see fireworks. It was quite good. Better than the ones at Disney! They were CRAP. But we had fun anyways. The four of us went to Karaoke in Tokyo and it was way fun. I had never reached the point of no longer being able to hit a note before that night. It was crazy.
What a cool time. I am really having the best time here.
