I'm having trouble sleeping, so I'm going to update. Stupid jet lag.

I arrived in America on Saturday. The flight was fine even though it was really long. It was good to see my family again, but I really didn't do much because I was too tired. On Sunday and Monday, stellawind came to visit! We went out to eat and did a little bit of shopping. We also finally ( Read more... )

Taking a break from packing to update LJ.

I went back to the hospital on Tuesday. A different doctor examined me and thankfully I don't have anymore kidney stones right now. I say right now because once you've had kidney stones there's always the possibility that more could form. To prevent this I've been trying to drink more water. I think one of ( Read more... )

Oh my god, the GazettE live was insane. It was amazing! Two days later and I still ache all over, but it was completely worth it.

( Cut for concert report and Sixth Gun feels~ )

Saturday was Tanabata, but it was unfortunately rainy. (It's even sadder if you consider the Tanabata legend because when it rains the star-crossed lovers supposedly can't meet in the sky.) I went to a Tanabata matsuri in Kappabashi with Leslie, Kaille, and Kaille's housemate Pei. We decided to wear our yukata anyways, which was probably not the ( Read more... )

I guess it's about time for an update. I did quite a few fun things over the weekend!

Saturday morning was pretty boring, but later in the day I met up with Kaille, Greta, and Leslie. We started off our evening by eating delicious okonomiyaki. It was our first time cooking the okonomiyaki for ourselves, so the waitress had to show us how to properly ( Read more... )

On Saturday night I went to yet another exist+trace concert! This show was in Shibuya at O-West and it was called "Just Like a Virgin".

Things have been pretty low key recently, at work and otherwise, so there hasn't been a ton to write about. I've been out for food a few different times with Kaille and my friends after work or on the weekends. I always try to hang out with my friends on the weekends, but more and more often we try to meet for dinner at least once during the work ( Read more... )

Finally got all my plans in order, and this morning I bought my tickets to visit the U.S. at the end of July! I'll be visiting my friends and family in Chicago from July 21-30. Then, on July 30th I'm flying to California so I can spend the rest of the week in San Jose with my bff, DJ! The plane tickets for everything were pretty expensive, but it ( Read more... )

Now it's time for an entry about yesterday, which was awesome! I met up with Kaille in the afternoon and we did karaoke. I sang the obligatory GazettE, Big Bang, Gaga, etc. Much to my surprise there were also a couple of exist+trace songs available to sing, so I tried my hand at singing "TRUE", even though I can't match Jyou's vocals. After that, ( Read more... )

Saturday was great! I went to Big Bang's ALIVE concert at Yokohama Arena! Since I was already going to be in Yokohama, Leslie and I decided to spend the day hanging out there. We grabbed lunch in Yokohama Chinatown and then walked around by the bay. It was nice, but a little hot and sticky. (No, Japan! I'm not ready for your summer weather!) After ( Read more... )
