Another Weekend!

This weekend was pretty cool. Well after the rain had stopped. I walked miserably to school on Friday with my bandaged knee and my crappy umbrella in the rain. Stupid typhoon! Well when the rain did stop I went out to dinner with a few international friends and 2 Japanese friends. Its always fun to teach the Japanese people sarcasm. Oh yeah, Japan is not a very sarcastic country. In fact no one in Japan in sarcastic except the foreigners. So Justin and I make it our daily effort to teach our Japanese friends sarcasm. I mean especially if they are going to study abroad in America! We have to teach them more than just the language... We have to teach them how to use! Well anyways after dinner we hung out at Justin's place for a bit and kind of had a techno party in his tiny little house. But we ended up just sitting down and talking. Sometime around midnight we made a 7-11 run. Oh yeah, Japan has 7-11 and McDonald's and KFC and of course Starbucks! They're 7-11 is way different though. They sell food that doesn't suck. But no slurpies (Sorry Joella). So we hung out a bit eating our food, joking around and on our way back to Justin's we ran into some other international students who were drunk... Hilarious. Drunk people trying to speak Japanese when it's not their first language is awesome! I have done it. You think you're smart but you sound even more retarded than when you're not drunk...
I was not able to go to Uji this Saturday with Tiki :(. There was a misunderstanding due to cultural/language differences that left me a little upset. But that afternoon Justin, Yasu, Shouhei, and I went shopping, which makes me happy so I was fine. I bought a tank top, and a dress shirt I would have bought a Bump of Chicken CD but 30 bucks for a CD from 2001 with 10 songs on it? Come on Japan... Are you serious? That is a little too takai (expensive) for me. Shouhei had to leave early because he was going to an Avril Lavigne concert that night (They love her a lot over here). Afterwards Tiki came over and explained and said sorry so we are going to go to Uji next weekend instead.
Jessica is coming down the tenth of next month to visit me and I am SO excited!!!!!!!! I miss Jessica! Next weekend should be fun too. Shouhei, Yasu, Justin and I are supposed to be going to a ghost house or something. Im totally excited about it. I have a lot to look forward to!
