Nana confirmed my suspicions that she is the coolest thing that ever lived. We went many places and did many things and got our picture taken in the littl sticker booths and generally had a kick ass time. We managed to carry on a conversation quite well, and she only had to break out her electronic dictionary for me every other sentence, thankyou ( Read more... )

Today marks the second day in my attempt to start flossing regularly. Yesterday, I was reading the NYT online when I realized that it will have been a really long time since I got my teeth cleaned when I go back the US, and it will be quite awhile before I can get an appointment, so I have decided that I need to actually start taking care of my ( Read more... )

Okay, can we talk about how much I love Nana? Because Nana is the shit. She's the funnest Japanese girl that ever roamed the earth. She just came over and made fun of my messy room and didn't say "eeeehhhhh" once because she's just that cool and showed me her books full of the little pictures you take with your friends in the booths, and said ( Read more... )

Only 5 more vitamins to take until I leave. They're lined up on my shelf, and looking at them is the best way to send a shock to my system that says "LAURA! STOP LISTENING TO MUSIC AND READING THE NEW YORK TIMES ONLINE AND PACK YOUR FUCKING SHIT."

PS: I love Jamie Cullum and want to have his babies.

You know what sucks? Being really hungry and having to stand over your pot of curry as it slowly boils down to the right consistency.

I perfected my technique for making people who stare at me uncomfortable while walking back from Ikebukuro today. When a staring person has been located, wait until that person is about 10-15 feet away from you, and then make eye contact. Continue eye contact until the other person looks away, and then continue to stare with a not pissed, yet not ( Read more... )

Janice III, son of son of Janice, is not dead! Evidently something happened to the hard drive that they could fix this time. Of course I was so relieved that I immediately bought her a new case and headphones. My new headphones are pure sex. They're the kind that clip to your ears, and they have (drumroll) retractable cords! Also, they are ( Read more... )

I am off to Ginza to make the people at the Mac store sorry to see me yet again. It's sad when I find myself wishing for cloud cover to guard my delicate pale skin from frying to a painful crisp. The day star burns.

Okay, fuck this update journal page. Fuck it right in the ear. I wrote this fabulous entry about how much I hate Dell, and it decided not to post it. What a cock. Anyways, the one thing I know about the laptop I will be buying is that it will NOT be a Dell, at least partially because I hate their advertising. That guy who goes around looking ( Read more... )

It's beautiful today! That means I get (have?) to go get shit done. To Ginza I go... but not before taking a little nap on the roof. I can't make myself get scared about packing. As much as I know I'm wrong, I can't help but think that it won't be that bad, and that packing really won't take me that long. I should know by now that I have about ( Read more... )
