November 30 TokyoWhat a town.
Have updated my foto album.
What me bf n i went to this town for was to take part in a big international event called Design Festa, at Tokyo Big Sight, selling what we have made. You can have your own booth as long as what you sell/show/perform is original.
We kept eating italian food through the whole wkend in Tokyo,
am sure i gained some good weight..
But it's so yummy!!! (esp. Fettuccine w/ so much of cheeeeese:D)
Anyways, gotta take care of my final thesis now...
...have been stuck thou... November 09 sleeeepyjust wanted to do some "show off" : my new manicure colours;-) lol
and danish flag + japanese one. arent they lovely.
Dale--> sorry bout my interruption the other day on the fone, say hi t ya sweet bf! ;-D
Terry--->hey turbo terry, how have u been! didnt know u had 2 hamsters... u seem to be kinda type of not sweet mice but grrrr bow wow thing, eh lol or pure love for roaring turbos lol November 02 Nååååhhh!Ej!! det har været mere end 2 måneder!!
wow long time no updating lol one of my friends just reminded me of this by e-mail, who paid some visit here from time to time, while i myself hadn't for ages...
anyways what i'm up to? getting rid of my old stuffs in my room. have been so busy, lots to do as usual.
+ the other day i got a hamster to take another care, because i've wanted to have some pets ever since my bf and i got apart. i wanted one with totally white fur and red eyes, but somehow this boy fascinated me so here he is, keeping me away from some stupid thoughts or loneliness which i tend to have n suffer from when apart from my bf, with so lovely n funny actions, waking -me-up midnight-running-on-the-wheel, and sweet on-my-hand-shitting.
how lovely.
hmm any more to say? ... Zzzzz
August 19 sigh...phewwww am falling apart. feel sick almost everytime i eat (but no vomitting) n my womb got kinda cut, n today my doctor told me something's wrong with my pelvis. (not so serious thou) and i keep getting frustrated these days. sigh.
the other day when my bf and i went to a design centre in nagoya, to see an exhibition organised by DDC (danish design centre) called "Use it! -Design from Denmark" a guy from Tasmania talked to us, and as soon as he found out where my bf comes from and about Mary the crown princess, he said "ah right! as it's a small island, we are all like good old friends, so i know her, and hey we are a family!" a family? lol good thought:D
anyways good to be there, we had fun, and a japanese guide(he himself is an abstract drawing artist) asked us "i'm a guide here but know nothing about danish design, so please tell me!" lol he was funny n nice.
August 05 meltingmax 37.3 degrees in some region in japan today, ...is this planet doing ok??
the 4th day of my volunteer work at the Expo site right next to my uni,
as an English/German guide, but unlike the day before yesterday, what i used english for was to communicate with some guys from Belgium, and DUTCH speakin area, and i forgot almost every greeting in dutch which my belgian friend taught me, ...shame on me lol.
but it went well today.
my bf and i took a walk around the Expo afterwards, and we dropped by at the polish pavilion since one of his best mates loves Poland, and it was really great actually, we agreed, their video was well made and the Salt Mine they brought was amazing. the last time we walked around we found the UK pavilion really good as well, no more show-off like the very first Expo in 1851. (maybe?)
anyways my back's killing me, off to bed.
July 28 many thanks!Terry, Jere, Math, and Dale, thanks for caring bout me, really sweet of you, now i'm doing good and the situation is getting better thanks to you guys. after all family is very precious just like good freinds i could rarely get like you. things are stepping forward, and am gonna try to keep it going..
the typhoon is almost gone now, 'twas a great sunny day today over here.
how was ur area?
played "the electone" (kinda high-tech piano with foot keyboard pedals) after years, was good to be back in the old days. baught snacks and "skyy blue" (natsukashii!!!!) and watched a dvd, maybe u've seen, "princess mononoke," i loved this movie when it was in cinema (when i was...13 or 14?) and the music from the movie i played on the electone, well it's still great, but if u haven't seen "Nausicaa of Valley of Wind," i strongly recommend it, mononoke movie has the root on the latter great movie based on the same theme.
anyhow,
Terry: happy birthday again, how is it to be 22 so far? i kinda like it when u get hyper thou lol
Jere: kasumi told me some storied of urs, how are things recently? text me sometime:) thanks for ur msg, i'll be right back to europe soon!
Math: are you still with the thai gf, if so, does she live in thailand now? i bet things are mostly like this in asia... sadly. anyways danke fuer deine msg!
Dale: heee hooo! happy birthday to you too again, good the card got there safely, coz the officers were pretty worried about the weird hole on it lol who cares what it means lol nobody can understand here! lol well hey i got SKYY BLUE! cho--- hisashiburinano! u can't find it so easily even here in japan. oh btw, did u measure the thing? .... LOL
July 23 now whatwell after some problems with my mum, caused by the huge difference between the ways i think and she thinks, ever since i got back home here in japan, now she says "who do you think you are?" seeing me and my bf sharing household thingies.
according to her idea or what she has been seeing, like that my dad won't be standing in the kitchen, it seems so weird for her to see my bf helping me out in cooking, or when i do the whole cooking he does the dishes, i look like a lazy princess in her eyes.. we've been trying to tell her that's what we have been doing together, and that's how we think, but it is so difficult. yeh you sure can call it a generation gap or whatever, but i think it's beyond there, can u imagine (if u've never been in japan) people will stare at you or whisper to another behind you when you ever start kissing or hugging in public, they won't leave you alone. can't u? when we kissed on the road today, just a birdie one u know, my bf saw a middle aged woman driving in the car STARING at us with her head 90 degrees turning around for a good couple of seconds, gosh glad she didn't crash into my mum's car lol. BUT WHY! who cares who's kissing who's hugging? haven't u been there, can't u feel happy or smt when u see ones! .....sorry i'm just frustrated lol
anyways we went to a fireworks show, which was kinda good, u could feel the typhoon is definitely coming thou lol
sweet dreams lol
July 15 uncool 22oh yeah i turned 22 on the 12th, somehow 22 sounds uncool, doesnt it. 21 is so cool, so is 23, but 22... phew. anyhow i will try to make this brand new year of mine a cool one, aye.
it's been 1 week since i came back in japan and been 5 days since my bf came to me, time does fly. it is good to be back, it must be, but i just cant help feeling like i dont belong here at all, sadly, how can i describe, uncomfy...hard to breathe, i mean i just feel wrong to be here, i realised the way i think or act became so much more different from people around than before. many people tell me i'm pretty westernised, or that i'm not typical japanese, luckly i am indeed well travelled, but actually i have been this way ever since i rejected to be "one of the others" in this japaese society, where you're forced to be the same as others in a group, around the time i entered junior high or so, and i went to england, hangin out with friends from abroad, travelled around visiting them, or maybe seeking for "somewhere i belong" (lol) and i kinda felt most right when i got to denmark. i guess this is very sensitive private/individual issue, probably everyone has, and am at the point of making a big dicision, well, lots thou lol, so...erm i'm getting lost what i'm talkin bout, but yeh this is just my thoughts, who cares lol. everyone in the sub who cares, take one step forward lol. (if u know what i mean)
well i'm not here to discourage my bf who came to japan making his dream come true(his major is jp) but i have to say i thank him being here, of course it's not easy to explain everything to my family or to him each time, but this piece of denmark understnads me most being closest to me supporting me, and it's good to be a good help for this "gaijin" in japan.
gonna have fun wearing japanese traditional cloths tomorrow at a festival!! hee hee July 02 Leaving DK...Now it's already July...time flies way too fast!! in 5 days i will be leaving this favourite town of mine after ca.5 months of my stay...although i will be bringing some good piece of Denmark with me (my bf's coming right after) it's just sad that every little thing you do/see normally here, every one you see just an easy bike-ride away, and this lovely language you've been struggling with, won't be there around you any more (unless you try to), just the old n ordinary life awaits back home. Of course it's nice to be back seeing my family n a few good friends of mine, but still...i just feel so right n comfy to be here n u know, and bla bla bla(keep complaining lol)
anyways, it'll be nice to have him around me back there, i'm sure i'll discover some new things in old things, since everything will be new and surprising for him. or i might get a reverse culture shock as i had never been away from home country for more than 1 month...brrr...scary. oh btw, if he's not to come to japan, i wouldn't think about coming back in the first place lol ah right, i hsve to finish my home uni lol
i'm losing confidence in my capability for japanese summer heat...it's kinda torture every year, u know, it's a miracle i've survived, well i have to admit i have been a lavish spender on electricity (air-conditioner!), aye, a lovely pest for household expenses (sorry mum )lol. i'm coming back, mum!! lol
ok, no time to lose, i have to enjoy the rest of my days here:-) June 23 Sankt Hanspuha, it's been a while again. anyways, today here in dk, ppl are celebrating this wonderful sunny day, also the summer solstice at the same time, the longest day of the year. this midsummer-night, so-called Sankt Hans here, i think he's the same as St, John the Baptist. Bonfire everywhere around the town, and i think am gonna be one of the places with my bf or some other fellow students. went to the danish design centre (DDC) last night with my bf, featuring "DANISH -framing the future of design" which was a nice exhibition:-) May 30 Die Affenhitze in Berlin!'twas a lovely trip to Berlin, my bf and i enjoyed the town very much except this "monkey-heat!(directly translated)" only while we were there, it was over 30 degrees almost all daytime, and it got up to 35, said the local newpaper.(even hotter than japan!!!) but i just checked the online weather forecast now and it's back to the comfy climate, around 18 or smt, just like here in copenhagen. a bit rainy thou. at least we enjoyed the "very summer" there:-) well...apparently my german got worse... lol now, i'm heading for Oslo(Norway), as a study trip, by sea, 16 hr ferry trip. ohhh. i'll find time n put some pix another time. hej!
May 12 Examwoa it's already 22.00 here, just finished the exam in(at? whateva) the danish class, erm...well, not super well done or shit either, but it went okay. erm gonna dash home now, and start packing for this sudden-determined trip to Stkhlm (the train leaves 7 AM so gotta wake up kl.LORT=shit) well what am gonna do first there, must be miss my bf. Dale: i know u know that i care bout u much darlin lol well, am gonna look for some lovely guys for ya in stkhlm, talk to ya later!

April 28 all you need is...A bit grumpy weather here in copenhagen, which kinda discourages me from cyclying to the classes... gotta kick my ass. oh! i haven't changed the time setting here, it says 19:09 but this is japan time, here it's only...12:09 now. will have a course in danish culture 13-15, and then viking course till 18, but erm... might be meeting up with my bf and skip it (oops) or he's gonna join the viking class secretly (the class is for international students), well, he's viking-blooded anyway huh lol btw, am at the library to get on the internet, and a guy in front of me seems totally lost in his thoughts or mind or whateva, he hasn't done anything for at least half an hour lol is he in love? lol oh now he (pretends) to start something on his desk, oh now looking around again! ...am gonna shut up now. gotta go. here are some msg back to the comments below.
