One day the girl decided
That she desired more
Not the golden colors the states provided
But those vermilion from a distant shore

This was not to say she didn't admire
The umber undulating hills of her home
Yet there was something that did not inspire
Which caused her heart to roam

There were reasons, yes, for her travels far
To begin, she wished to speak ( Read more... )

Well...Yukiko couldn't get the Takarazuka tickets. I guess they sold like hotcakes. I can still try to go to the theatre and get tickets the day of the showing--but I would have preferred not to. *sigh* It just isn't working out quite right. Well, reguardless of the method, I still hope I can go see Phantom.

It struck me today that I should take more pictures. I mean, that is one of the blessings of a digita camera, is it not? I decided that I should take more pictures of home. So, under the theme of "Close-up"--here are some close up images of my home.

I am happy to be going to Japan. At least it will be cooler there. So what if they have humidity? I would take a high of 84+humidty rather than 110+dry heat. I'm sitting in my living room, the fan whirling over my head--and sweating. Even our air conditioning doesn't make the house cold. It just can't compete with the Sacramento heat ( Read more... )

I headed out to the Bay Area today, Berkeley, to be specific not ONLY to try and beat the heat of Sacto....but to visit my friend Micheal who is taking super hard intensive Japanese classes there. I'm quite jealous, actually--he is learning Japanese there at this amazing level that I wish I had been taught last year. I think that he knows that he ( Read more... )

Working at a mall I can't help but notice how stupid (but it is that really the right word?) Americans are. At college, I sort of forget that ignorant, ghetto, uneducated people exist. Oh, how silly of me, I know. But, why not enjoy a good thing while you have it? Now, this is not to say everyone I run across is stupid, overweight off fast food, ( Read more... )

As far as jobs go, mine isn't so bad. I work in an air conditioned mall--which beats anything in the 100+ degree weather of Sacramento. In addition, working in a mall is HIGHLY convinient for me right now--namely that I have to buy a lot of stuff for Japan. Plus, the people I work with are pretty cool, and the job is not too taxing. I can use the ( Read more... )

Well, I finally gave up on it today. My search for the Kelly Green Beret. I know where it is, next time I am in SB--so I will buy it when I get back from Japan. Instead, I bought myself a grey fuzzy one. I decided on grey because it would go with anything, and is a pretty neutral color, but not as neutral as black or white. This ends over three ( Read more... )
