千三百十五:Midweek

finally Wednesday. also, the end of my first month of the year at work. (give or take a few days)

As I didn't have much work this week, due to the UAT (User Acceptance Tests) creators fouling up a whole bunch of stuff, I had no reason to take a cab home from work. sighz. I left office at about 7.50pm and I reached home at about 8.50pm. :( It was a nice feeling to have some time for my hair to dry before I sleep though. Although the exhaustion I feel when I reach home is the same no matter what the hour is.

I had pizza for dinner tonight, Pizza Hut, joined my team for dinner before heading home. yesterday we ordered from dabao.sg. been wanting to do that for very long le, but it was too expensive and not worth it just cos I was lazy to go buy lunch. so we ordered from there last night, I had Mee Hoon Kuay and everyone ordered some small dish for him/herself and we shared the doumiao in the centre. it was pretty good. Today we wanted to eat zichar but dunno why all the zichar stalls were closed today. Do zichar stalls rest on Wednesday?!? which was why we ended up with pizza. Their Fortune feast set is actually quite good surprisingly. I was pretty skeptical of the chicken stuff on top at first but turned out to taste like Bak Kwa~~

team bonds are building up, except with that wdl. which is fine with all of us. so during the teleconferences nowadays, we'll mute the phone and chit chat (When nothing concerning us is being said) or check out the scribbles on each other's notebooks. haha. like school kids.

sighz. I better sleep earlier tonight. I overslept or should I say, I snoozed too long and missed my usual bus and the later bus came even later than usual and ended up me being 5 min late for work when that bus should have actually brought me there 5 min b4 work starts at least. Can someone please redraw the route for the service 963??? it really sux. and its too long!!

another soothing picture:

good night.

千三百十四:Oops

Ahh!!

I still am feeling super sleepy. I actually laid down my head on my work desk at about 8pm and actually dozed off for a few minutes. -.-

i still havent put up that story, i'm really sorry..

trying to get some most of my project work done at work as well.because the exam is the next weekend!! Argh!!! so fast and this project has so much i need to do that i'm panicking.

and I realise I haven't updated in 2 days.

Yesterday, the team + another Japanese lady went for dinner together (cos I suggested it hoho) for once they were not so busy so I said let's go for dinner at ABC market and they actually agreed. I forgot to take a pic but we had tons of things and everything added up to only like $9 per person in the end. we had curry fish head, oyster omelette, carrot cake, fried you tiao, satay, tofu, vegetables. sooo filling. quite fun but unfortunately the wdl was there to spoil things abit with his bad manners as usual.

Today I went to the dentist in the afternoon cos my tooth was aching like mad when I drank water and even more so when I drank cold water. I was sooo afraid it would be a decay cos I can't brush properly with the braces on but luckily it wasn't. Just something about it becoming sensitive because of the pressure from my upper teeth. phew. since my next appt was just a week away and my teeth had moved sufficiently this round to satisfy my dentist, he decided to just change the wire today anyway and now my braces are purple! will put up the pic of the change maybe tomorrow.

oh. A reason why I am so tired:

Where I wait for my bus every morning
I have to wait for the bus at this unearthly hour when it isn't daylight yet...


anyway, dead beat, I am going to shower and sleep. niteyz!

千三百十三: The sleep debt

this weekend was weird. i couldn't summon the energy to do anything but instead napped both days for about 3 hours in the afternoon and then still felt so sleepy at about 11pm that I went to sleep early and woke up past 11am somemore.

Something is wrong with me!

maybe.

on top of that, i just feel super grouchy, irritated at everything and I seem to have this headache that doesn't go away.

I think I better go sleep abit now. head feeling very heavy le.

千三百十二:Fatigue

Last night I came back about 11pm cos I had dinner with my team and cleared up abit of work before I headed home by cab. hehe.

my sister was having friends over for mahjong and I had a bit of a start seeing so many shoes at the door step at such a time in the night. then I spoke abit to Ryo past midnite. its been a whole week since I spoke to him but unfortunately, i had only 4 hours of sleep the night before, the conversation ended when I was already in the half dozing stage and my sis had to clear my laptop off my bed for me. so ryo will be at work this weekend, i won't be but my teammates will be.

so today i will be trying to do my assignment. sighz. why the next exam is so soon?? i better try to get the skeleton out at least.

I feel like going for a short cruise/resort trip on one of the weekends lei. YY, you want to go?? the earliest i can go anywhere is 10(afternoon onwards) to 12 feb. how how how?

千三百十一:

I worked until 11pm today. (><)

its usually enjoyable OT when you have a group of people doing OT with you that you enjoy spending time with, can joke, talk cok, have dinner together. like last time in starhub when we were trying to pia OT 24-7 and get about 3k in pay for the month. it was super fun and since all of us were about the same age group, we would be eating that wuss joined us for dinner today. I dunno why he was the only one around and he came into my office area and I was so revolted by the thought of having to face him alone that I just took up the food and went to the pantry area. but my leader wasnt there yet. i left the food there with that wdl trailing behind me and i just wandered around looking for my team leader, and saw him chatting to another Japanese colleague. argh, cannot disturb, so I wandered around, only wanting to go to the pantry when more people were around.

so finally i went back after another 5 min, luckily my leader came, so i arranged the food. shinji (my leader; think i will type shinji from now on, sounds nicer and shorter to type oso) already noe wat to do liaoz, he was like glancing at me with looks of "which seat is mine?" cos he know i dun wan to sit next to that wdl and i felt like laughing. Unfortunately, i dunno why that wdl so irritating, went to purposely rearrange the food and change seats and move the table etc. while we were sitting down le. but anywayz. i shifted further from him, but seriously, very revolted by him and his talking. and his mere presence. yuck yuck yuck. then he made some weird comments at the table and not just me lor, Shinji and Mikako (another girl in my team but she's older about 36?) also were like "???" when that wdl spoke.


anyway, most of the time i just turned to Shinji and tried not to let that wdl speak to me. or i just keep very quiet most of the time.

ok yy, i promise to write about what broke my limit of tolerating him by end of this week. hehe.

千三百十: Overtime

First time I worked so late in any office i think. I only left the office at 10pm, since I started the testing work today only at 3pm. 3.30pm was the ending meeting of the day, and I had to do something so that I could report something during the meeting. My team leader was kind enuff to run me through the first 3, but after that the functions got so bleah that it wasted our time trying to figure out where to get info to test. -.- I wanted to try everything out myself first, but they keep saying they would help but actually it wasn't very difficult. just .. first time is abit confusing bah.

luckily, we could claim dinner allowance, and we ordered KFC. finally~~ we ordered 8 pcs for 3 people, it was enough to make me not wan to eat chicken for the rest of the year. and not eat KFC for the next 2 years at least. that wuss was dunno throwing what tantrums, asked him to join us he dun wan, but i think it was cos i ignored him when i was ordering food next to him on the phone. When I was already on the phone, as i said in the last post, he likes to interrupt people. so he tried to talk to me when i was already on the phone with the operator and tried to take my menu away. DL !! I just curtly snatched my paper back and shut my hand over my free ear to ignore him while trying to hear the operator. seriously. wat's wrong with this guy?? oh well, a happier dinner without him i suppose.

so we had a long enjoyable and relaxing but late dinner , chit chatting over KFC which led to all of us going home at about 10pm++ . luckily, after 9pm, can claim transport allowance oso. phew. so now I've showered and feeling damn sleepy but cant sleep yet, my hair's all wet.

and a shot of the sunset from the Jurong East MRT platform yesterday:

thursday tomorrow le. yay!

千三百零九:Lost post

crap sia. I had already typed this super long post but the damn iE 7 got some problem and the whole things closed while I was doing other work without me realising it!!!

I was actually writing this late post about the damn wuss with even a diagram to illustrate and make clear my point but apparently he jinxes my post also. CRAP!!

aiyah forget it. In summary, he's a complain king, very dependent on other people, and he keep complaining everything about Singapore like we are a 3rd world country. my team leader is helping me fend him off in the meantime. but I would still prefer not to be in any form of contact with him.

today finally my real work will start but there seems to be all sorts of delays which is why i am still doing this at 10am. hehe. and my colleague is eating breakfast cereal in a bowl he brought from home. hmm.

I should be starting on my next post-assignment given that the deadline is 10-Feb, but i just don't have the motivation or the discipline. it still seems quite far away. hoho. やる気がない!

ok I shall countdown to my first pay day which is in 6 days' time.

千三百零八:3rd week at work

hmm. my boss walked in on me twice today to see me checking mail. its ok but i dunno how she feels cos her expression was abit weird.

anyway, managed to clear the tasks at hand, explained to him how the new stuff works and so on. he was quite surprised i had already finished it, but then i don't want to say I don't really have other things on hand so I guess its all good.

sleepy. i got so sleepy at 3pm. i am trying to cut down on liquids because my pass has been taken away by that stupid whining wuss WDL and i can't go to the loo as and when I want cos i need to borrow a pass from other people. I hope my one comes soon, because its been 3 weeks!!

i bought a new game today .. Lumines II. yes, I am trying out retail therapy, to get rid of the horrible feelings that occured from some events last week. i'm just testing whose will is stronger, who can hold out the longest. almost 24 hours le. i would push it to a week.

千三百零七: Out of my misery - Death Note 2

YAY! the first exam finally over. not a disaster, but not a very super successful one either, with all my retention powers, I still can't retain information for exams still. or should I say, I can't recollect during the exam. how to write 10 essays in 3 hours? it's almost impossible unless you're a robot. or you write 10 crap essays during 3 hours then it's possible too. grr.

but great. its a great weight off the mind. for now at least. I had forgotten the great relief feelings of post-exam, the fatigue you feel pre-exam and during the exam is forgotten once the paper is over. you feel free as a bird and can bounce off to all the post-exam activities you have planned le!

so today, I went to watch Death Note 2 with someone. he said his gf don't really like Japanese movies when I asked why he wasn't watching it with his gf. hmm, but then today is saturday, usually guys meet their gfs on weekends mah. so .. dunno la. hope things are OK between him and his gf. It's weird. He tried very hard to avoid contact with me for the past 4 years, or 3 years? since he sent me a xmas card in 2005, I guess that I should forgive and forget. I did forgive him le, but to forget is not an easy thing to do. but I don't know what to make of it, this suddenly coming back into my life to be friends again. The first time we met in so many years, last month, it was awkward, for me at least, that I found it very hard to look him in the eye. I didn't want to see the person I had liked so much, to fall back into the same trap again. But today, meeting for the 2nd time, feels very natural liao. maybe I'm just too tired today to try to fight my feelings of loneliness, maybe we do click and this was why we were even together before at all. of cos, have to keep reminding myself we are attached to other people, don't even think in any funny direction liao. aiyah, i think i just need some rest, head spinning and hallucinating weird thoughts.

It was fun today, we went to Vivo to watch movie, then walked around trying to shop. I was trying to get clothes, or shoes, but for the size of vivo, there is nothing decent being sold. everyone having winter wear sale, the clothes nowadays look quite crappy. i saw some nice t-shirts from Levi's though, forgot to get them after I did a 1 round recce of all the shops, maybe will go after work or something. Since I was holding an NYDC voucher for $15, we decided to head to orchard and have dinner at the one at Heeren. walked into Heeren to check out clothes after dinner and guess what, immediately found some nice low-heels that look nice on me at URS. URS never fails me, despite my long toes. on sale somemore! then got a speckled T-shirt from the Nike new collection. very cool design, just nice I was looking for a collared t-shirt after all.

J was great to walk into all the shops with me, even though it was mostly me shopping and then he helped me carried my shopping bags even though I didn't ask him to. it just feels good to be on a "date" and to have someone looking after u when you go out lor.

The movie was great, I was surprised at the ending part though. abit sad. but I still don't know what is L's real name! and how did Light know the real name?! I wan to know all these details!

good nite~

千三百零六:Burning the Midnight Oil

Eyes can barely open now.

I was so tired last night i went to sleep at 11pm and woke myself up at 5am this morning to try to finish studying. I don]t think i will get an A or wat for the module liaoz. zzz. not enough time to study. nodding off even as i type this and i still have some materials to finish reading. how did a month go by like that?!

teleconference with USA and Japan yesterday early morning. the other girl from sg was late, but when the meeting ended, she was around and she gave me some tips in handling this job. I had lunch with other local/Malaysians/Indonesians in the Japan team yesterday, Shinji (my team leader) had arranged for them to have lunch with me. I was abit miffed at first, cos I don't really like other people arranging my time for me especially for meals, but I just said ok, cos he was only trying to get me to know more people so I can avoid WDL. WDL is the nick name we came up for the wussy guy, so that he dunno we are talking about him should it be heard. he tried to jio me to lunch with them yesterday then when I told him i wasn:t eating with them, he was trying to fish for info for where I be eating and with who. I could hear that he was fishing for an invitation to join but I just said nothing and told him to ask Shinji about it. after that, unfortunately, we all ended up in the same food court, albeit half an hour later than them, but he saw us and he was glancing over and after lunch, Shinji was telling me that WdL asked him if he can join us and Shinji just told him no. hoho.

I shall try to tell u the wussy story later after my exams. ok.. thats all for updates. i need to study.. nodding off.. shucks.

千三百零五;Eyes wide shut

千三百零四:More Happiness

I shall not spoil my mood by blogging about the wuss today. Will continue tomorrow.

anyway google sites are down in my office these few days I dunno why, they are blocking their rival maybe? its driving me nuts that i can't check my mail.

and i finally finished the essays! 46 PAGES in all including title pages etc, quite thick. now i just have to worry about passing the exam. -.-

千三百零三: The Wuss

I have just came back from a most hellish dinner but i got no time to talk about it now so i'll blog about my anger and irritation tomorrow at work.

Look out for the edited version of this post.

I am so furious I would have grabbed the guy and just bashed his head into the wall if there had not been others physically present for me to control my anger. but all could hear my sarcasm and they were exchanging looks with me in sympathy when he opened his mouth again and I am just thankful that I am always blessed with the most wonderful team leaders (quite cute and charismatic Japanese guys) who totally click with me. Luckily this one is already married.

千三百零二: Belated Resolutions

after a happy conversation last night in the midst of the panic, I have come up with a 15-day late New Year Resolution.

"I resolve to save at least S$1,000 every month from January 2007 onwards. If I can save more, I will."

For major life events, money is needed, and when major life events comes into focus, you will realise how little money you really have. but it's ok. i'm determined to not use my parents money for this.

hohohoho. happY!!

千三百○一: Essay Panic

After a long day, (I woke up abit late unfortunately) I finally finished one essay. One out of Five that is. ARGH!! but for that one, I put in extremely hard work, as this is the first time i realised I'm writing an essay for a university module, and this is the first time I've written an essay with citations and all and figuring out where to put citations is killing me. How to put citations so that I won't be failed for plagiarism is abit scary cos the first essay required me to do my work from a handout and i didn't direct copy from the handout but rephrased the ideas but since most of it is from the handout, am I supposed to cite that handout for every part in my essay?? that would be abit messy right? and seems ridiculous since the question asked us to use the handout. hmmmmm.

ok in a panic to churn out 4 other essays today. that's all folks~

千三百: Some Office Gossip

I'm finally going to start doing some real work next week!

Today I learnt how to use the testing program and wat protocols and format I had to follow to do the testing. It wasn't difficult actually, but of cos I had to learn how to use the other products first. which was what I did this week. hee hee hee.

So I'll have some training the next week, before the real testing starts, from the lady who interviewed me in japan. She'll be coming down from Japan with another new person in the team (who be stationed in Japan i think?) to train us properly. She's a really nice lady, and pretty young I think. I saw all the other people started real testing work already but I realised they all had work experience as systems engineers and that kinda IT job experience already. well, I found out the 27 year old is earning about 3.5k (so why is he so stingy??? and we had a farewell lunch for another colleague today I barely know,at a nicer place with dim sum and the first thing he asked was why are we eating at such a expensive looking place and how much would it be. and he saw a bit of food left and he was like asking if he can dapao it for dinner or wat. omg. )

I actually have my first exam for the Masters program module next weekend. argh!! it means I have to complete my 5 essays this weekend!! omg. and of cos finish studying this weekend as well. argH!!! panic mode returning. how come a month goes by so quickly? i have to submit on Friday I think, at Dhoby Ghaut?? cos the exam on Saturday is at Queenstown Campus. sianz.

& I heard they are going to let a sandwich bar start selling food in the office pantry. Isn't that cool?? probably at a low rate to buy snacks cos now there isn't food available despite the 7-11 drinks area well-maintained by the aunty. There are the normal waffle type biscuits and crackers but that's about all.

I found out my team leader's married and his Japanese wife is here in Singapore too. And one of the Japanese girl has a Holland husband. and there is a married couple among the other team, Singapore guy and Japanese girl. & I'm apparently one of the youngest in the office again. woohoo! wah.. so this is wat a international company is like.. hehe.

千二百九十九:The Dreaded Time of the Month

yes its the time of the month when girls go crazy. but this month was alright though. I wonder why. I was more of worried what if it doesn't come and there's been some mistake, but thankfully it did. phew.

went through abit more training today, found out i'm expected to be fully responsible for the systems I'm in charge of in March. March, that's enough time for me to properly learn! hoho. i feel much more at ease after hearing that. The other guy in the team, the new guy is irking me a little. He is like complaining hawker centres are dirty, nowhere for him to have dinner etc and I said, buy back home lor?? and he was like but his room got ants etc, no insect netting on the windows and i was like, no one has insect netting here wat?! and he was saying he stayed late at the office cos got free drinks, and free biscuits -.- (he's japanese lor..) and I was like thinking "oh my god, its a free loader type" and I said you can buy chopstix and cup noodles at NTUC, i couldn't think of any near queensway so i said go Tiong bahru and he said "so far!" -.- aiyah. everything wan to complain but all the suggestions rebutt, dun ask better la.

千二百九十八: First Second Day of Work

Today was a day of great suffering. Please avert your eyes from reading on because there are some scary photos.

I went to the dentist last night and he decided that I needed to tighten my teeth by ALOT if I don't want to extract any teeth since the bottom row didn't seem to be moving much.

and so .. the change from Month 2 to Month 3.

Braces Part 2IMG_2400
Can you tell if the teeth moved at all?

I guess the gap on my top row closed up.. the gap btw the front and side teeth. it hurts like mad now. esp if i accidentally shut my mouth too fast and the teeth bang on each other. OUCH!!!

and its fast, the 2nd day of work has ended. The place has a great pantry, I do not ever need to buy drinks for the rest of my work life, even for lunch (people just choose watever drinks they want to drink for lunch and bring it with them to the food court), the eating places around the company has really low prices; spent less than $4 on lunch every day) and learning alot of new things, some of the difficulty is trying to catch alot of things my team leader is explaining in japanese as well and also reading the manuals and user guides in Japanese.

But. Great experience so far. I feel like I have alot more responsibility, since i'm going to be admin for the systems I'm supporting (COOL!!!). We can also chat and surf net freely during worktime (i checked with my sup about this, since apparently people dun even bother to lower the volume of their msn chat alerts and I keep hearing the PCs around me go "deng deng deng!" the msn sound and it irritates me! chat silently la!) but it becomes a con to have such freedom as Spiderman said "With great power comes great responsibility" and apparently,the colleagues in the same room as me dunno how to handle their great powers responsibly. work time liao, and this guy is making personal calls on his handphone, asking for tuition assignments from agentS, chatting to his gf, loudly. can't you make your personal calls outside the room? other people have to work you know.

My lunch is at 11am, following the Japan time (since clients are having lunch, you should be having lunch oso) and I can't wait for my next long weekend in February :) hoho. Although I won't be having CNY, my work follows the Japan calendar and holidays so that's alot better for me! i can't wait for the golden week to come though. :p

千二百九十六: Flu

Shucks. I'm down with flu. so is Ryo i think. My throat hurts. My nose is dripping non-stop. my head hurts too.

Today we had a sixoneder gathering. I woke up late, reached there late, but apparently I wasn't that late. The early birds had a good meal of the food there as the rest were really really late. And today we realised it's our 9th year of friendship. It was potluck dinner, dvd marathon and just talking about the past.

It was gross to find out someone had poured some sweet grapey soft drink all over our mailbox. and of those in the same column as well. WTF?! I saw the mail in the box stuck to the base of the mailbox due to the drink, yes it got into the mailbox and into our mail there as well, it was disgusting. I wonder who was the asshole who did such an inconsiderate thing. and unluckily, it was all my mail that kena-ed, but luckily, there weren't any very important mail. KAOZ. i dug the soggy letters out with my ezlink card, threw away the envelops and was contemplating washing the sweet drink off my letters but it would result in my letters being soaked. but then, if I just let the letters dry liddat with the sweet sticky stuff on them, ants would come. what should i do?! its DISGUSTING!!

千二百九十五:The Night at the Museum

The movie was quite funny, but reminded me alot of Jumanji. (the jungle board game that came alive remember?)

the movie was full house at Vivocity 9+pm even though we wanted to buy tickets at 8+ pm. -.- so we bought the tix for past midnite and came back my place to let me unpack and change b4 heading out again at 10pm++. I would have probably laughed harded if I hadn't been too sleepy to laugh. zzz.

It was a good change from the usual love or action or horror movies. ;)

ok i am about to concuss. good night.

千二百九十四: Saying Goodbye

I had lunch with my ex-team leader today and I dunno why at the end of it, I felt quite teary. They were saying goodbye, take care and to meet them again soon. (T.T)

Most of the shops were still closed and we had no choice but to go to the office canteen for lunch. The food is still as horrible. haha.

after that i cut my hair. almost all the salons were closed and i walked around for almost 2 hours b4 I found a salon that was open and looked decent. I was glad I did it cos I felt so good that my hair was finally not that messy brownish yellowish coppery colour liaoz. I wanted to do facial actually but the shop I wanted to go to was closed. so I wandered around Shinsaibashi looking for a salon, getting myself more and more lost when I finally spotted this place. I wasn't sure I wanted to go in, cos it looked expensive, but I walked around another 30 min more and realised this was like the best place with reasonable pricing around liaoz. -.-

& Kimura got his newest magazine cover of the year!

An-An
An An 2007-Jan-10 Issue

i'm very happy that i went out today haha, else wouldn't have noticed it at all.

When Ryo saw me in the evening, he realised a second later that I looked different. haha. it was funny to see him talk to me and then just take a step back suddenly when he noticed. :)

sighz. I don't wan to leave yet.

千二百九十三: Oysters

I had a great oyster dinner today!!

we went to Namba Parks to try the Oden fair.. but it was very overrated. grr. which left me really hungry and i was surprised when Ryo agreed to eat dinner at the Oyster Bar.
Gumbo Oyster Bar

I had 3 servings of this:
Oysters!
Oysters Galore

hehe. it must have looked very strange to the other tables that I was the only one eating all the oysters at our table.

after that, we walked around the sales but there wasn't anything much that caught my eye. instead we bought dessert!
Harbs Strawberry tart
it was too delicious I forgot about taking pictures until we finished the strawberries.

& I received this in the mailbox today.
Adult Sex Services Leaflet from the Mailbox
An ad for adult services

it's a common thing to receive here. hehe.

千二百九十二: New Year Sales

today's shopping:
Shopping results
Ryo had to move the chair when I pressed on the shutter button. -.-

i couldn't find xynn a cool mom bag, maybe there are none. all those I see cost above $100++ and looked tacky. tacky colours tacky designs. I caught sight of a super cool looking one and picked it up to find it labeled Kate Spade and costing more than $400. wahaha. abit out of budget... and I think the mom would cry if the baby throws up on that bag. But I bought something else that seemed useful and maybe i'll add on abit more when I see other shops.

I had lunch with Kana and she had major news.so happy for her but I'm pretty surprised. :) well.. i'm happy she chose to confide in me.

The essays are not coming along at all! I tried to write some stuff but totally couldn't focus and the essay is in bits and pieces and I have no mood to write other essays at all. grrr.

I cooked Bak Kut Teh today (thanks to Prima Mix!) and we had a good dinner in the room but unfortunately we dozed off.. after the dinner. we were using the bed as chair and its so easy to lean back after eating and just zzz.

The TV is repeating its show formats for new Year. all the shows are the same as last year. the format at least are the same, some even with the same actors. Mostly are variety shows, some are shows similar to gladiator, where they gather sportsmen and pit them in events and another one is some gag show where they wire up the actors to heartbeat measures and make them act in skits with shock situations and measure who has the most shocks. -.- that one was funny at least, but its the same as last year. we went to yodobashi to develop photos today, it was sooo crowded. there were the new year sales, and the Japanese women are buying things like they are free again.

one more day of holiday tomorrow b4 he begin work again. argh.

千二百九十一: Happy New Year!

hello ! almost the end of the first day of 2007 le.

today I spent the whole day in Ryo's place. This year his brother's family were there too, its really like CNY where everyone gather and the guys just sit lazily in the living room while the girls prepared the food. -.- but ok.. at least his sister in law was there, it didnt feel so awkward. we were late, and missed lunch, so I had to wait until dinner to eat something. (T.T) again. fyi, yesterday had no food until dinner cos ryo was asleep until 4pm. -.- had to wait for him to wake up right?

anyway, we went for 初詣 together, the whole family. took photos of the whole family, first time i took with all of them. good sign on the first day of the new year i hope. we went to a shrine near their place, within walking distance.

after that, spent the day in the house watching tv. occasionally the sister in law would chat with me, its really like CNY, just sit there and watch tv while the adults talk. the boys went to play baseball, Ryo with his bro and his nephew and the girls just sat around.

i sold my game for only 500 yen. (T.T) in the end i just sold it to Ryo's brother. the shop was going to pay only 500 yen anyway, and Ryo's brother bought it for his wife in the end. haha...

meetin kana for lunch tomorrow, only 3 days (2 days left?) argh!!!
