I am getting lazy. Please forgive me. :D

Enjoy this video. I have made a couple of them. I will post them in subsequent posts.
This is about a REALLY, REALLY shitty day I had. It was so intensely bad that it didn't even feel real, it felt like I was starring in the shitty part of some epic drama.


In other news, I am uploading pictures as well and cleaning my room! I have a couple days before school starts so I'm figuring out what to do with myself! I want to go to see Yokohama tomorrow or Wednesday, so hopefully I do that :)

I went on a date too, with a cute, hot, fun Japanese guy today! He's really cool. His name is Jun :D And his English skills are good, but not good enough that we never speak Japanese. This is a super plus. So our conversations are like 50/50, so I learn. I met him on Friday while clubbing with my friends. He was a really good dancer and really fun and charming, so I gave him my number later even though my phone was dead.

I wondered if he would call me, or if I even gave him the right number (I fuck numbers up late at night, when I've had a bit to drink) But he called me and asked me out on Saturday :) He wanted me to come clubbing last night, but I kept debating about it and finally I decided I didn't want to go meet a guy I had just recently met in Shinjuku late at night. That just didn't seem safe to me, especially with all the attention I've been getting lately. In Shin-Kawasaki/Hiyoshi area lately, I've had a couple guys pull over and try to pick me up, or ask me continually if I need a ride, or exit the train with me and try to get me to come get a drink with them. It's weird. I mean, I guess I should expect it if I'm a good-looking, American girl, but still... It makes me feel uneasy. And unsafe. I didn't feel that way when I was living right in Tokyo. Enough hot Japanese girls to distract the creepers, I guess. Or maybe it's the fact that my walk home is long enough and rather dark/unpopulated. Sugamo was pretty populated all over the walk home besides the last 100 yards or so.

Back to my story. So I finally decided it wasn't a good idea, even though clubbing sounded fun and all, so I kind of blew him off, but told him I wanted to meet up today during the day if he wanted to do that.

Taylor and I went shopping for groceries and clothes and such today, which was all right. I was glad she was well enough to come out with me since she's been sick for about a week and I was worried she was getting worse. I was feeling a little anxious though about vague things running through my head, like the fact we couldn't find a good, cheap grocery store(god, Japan, why is EVERYTHING so expensive here, except for stuff at the 100 yen stores?), and the Sony music application (which I feel like I should be doing at every moment), and whether Jun would want to take me out later or not since I blew him off.

I ended up buying the neccessary groceries and two pairs of cute striped boyshorts at Uniqlo for about 900 yen. I'm wearing a pair right now and they're quite comfy. I'm very satisfied with my purchase.

But later Jun and I made plans to have dinner in Shibuya. Yay.
I met him at the infamous Hachiko exit and he was even cuter than I remembered. His hair was styled so nice. He dresses exaaaaactly how I like. Eeee. Nice body too. I love slender, muscular men. Always. He was wearing this black shirt with that stylized cross design too, that just made him look like one of the splash pages of a sexy man out of a well drawn manga.

When I got there, I gave him a big hug and we wandered around together, talking and trying to decide where to eat (both of us were like,"I like everything to eat! You pick!") We're both hella indecisive, I guess. Or too agreeable. :P Finally, he took me to some place that I didn't really know the name of, but it was yummy and we got a lot of small dishes and split them. おいしかった！！！レストランの鳥肉は一番大好き。He spent hella money though! We got like two drinks, too D: I offered to split the check but he was like NO!!!!! ahaha. He's a cute one. He said he has some friends that work behind the scenes at some of the clubs in Shibuya, like Atom, which is AWESOME. He said he usually gets free drinks whenever he goes out, which is exciting. Maybe he'll be able to hook me and my friends up whenever we go clubbing :P

We talked about a lot of things, of course, and I liked what I heard :) Not going to repeat everything here cause that would take forever, but he's my kind of guy. He also went to university in the United States, which was kind of cool. He worked in Japan, and then he went to Pierce College in Los Angeles and then came back and got a a job in Japan. He's older than me though, 26, not sure how I feel about that, but we were on the same level in conversation and such so that I didn't feel a disconnect. I kind of want to try dating guys who are a little older than me anyway. I'm curious. I'm all for the good experience.

We talked earlier about the fact that he had to get up early to go to work in the morning (he works at a hospital), so we left to go to the station, and we were like talking about second dates and stuff, so that was pretty cool :) We both take JR, but separate lines, so as I went to leave for my line, we kind of said goodbye and didn't know what to do... it was cute and awkward. Finally he kissed me on the cheek and I kissed him on the cheek and we said goodbye lol. It didn't feel right to like, full on kiss in the JR station. There were so many people around. And it was a good date, but I think when we were both sober we were more reserved :P
It was cute though.

I hope to see him again! :D

That was my day. Hope you enjoyed reading about it :)
