I woke up around 10:30am and I was proud that I did not manage to steal all of the covers from my friend, Ceceil. Today she wanted to take me to this clothing store that she said was rather nice. We got up and had a big breakfest of udon and bread. After breakfast we went to this place, and it was in the opposite direction of Shinjuku. The place, I can't remember the name of it, but the buildings name was Opa. There was a lot of different clothing and this one store had the coolest socks as well as the coolest belly rings. I tempted to buy one but kept reminding myself to look at everything before I would proceed to buy anything. One of the girls stores had this person dressed up in these pink bear costume. I wanted to get my picture with the person, but did not out of the fact that it would be rather embarassing. Anyway we finally got this store that she wanted to take me and it was titled Honey. I found this really cute pink sweater, only in Japan would I find clothing in the color pink that I would buy. They also had clair's in the place and it was filled with interesting jewelry and my friend and i agreed that the jewerly that they have in the US is not as interesting as the ones in Japan. Only in Japan were we both compelled to buy everything. They also have a 300yen store as well as a 1000yen store which had a lot of nice things for the home, for obviously only 1,000yen each. So I only ended up buying that pink shirt at honey for only 1,900yen and it is really nice. So Ceceil and i left and I asked her if there was anything else in that area that was worth seeing, and she said that there pretty much wasn't, so we headed back to her place. It was about 1 pm by that time and we decided to rest a bit. We bought took out our manga's that we had purchased the previous day, and tried to read them the best that we could. She then harassed me as to how to use my electronic dictionary. I ended up translating most of the kanji for her. I told her my plans of going to Harujuku since I needed to buy sounvenirs, and she wanted to go to Akihabara, so we waited a bit, and i figured that my boyfriend would have called by then. After a few minutes we both realized that we were exhausted from the other night, so I decided to just head home, which is a long and exhausting ride from her place. It is even worse with two huge bags in the packed train. I was afraid of toppling over some Japanese people in the train and at one point, I almost did. By the time I got to Iidabashi my hands were hurting terribly and i wanted to stop at the book store and pick up those books, but did not out of wanting to releave my hands by getting to the dorm faster. Once I got to the dorm I rushed to my room to drop them. Then I was curious, why did not my boyfriend call...... when it got a little bit later, I sent him an e-mail that consisted of this (>=(....) Maybe 30 minutes to 60 minutes later I received a phone call. So i got upset with him, and i told him what was bothering me, naturally the phone card ran out and I was let with silence. Then he came online and we finished the conversation. While I was online Jai Lee called me to ask if I could return this video for her and I pretty much told her that I couldn't. My boy went to bed and then I realized that I had not eaten anything, since we do not get dinner on Sunday, and that I was starving. So I decided to bother Jai Lee for some food. When I opened her door, she was realized to see me and she had to tell me of her drama with Vishu. After maybe 2 hours of hearing about the drama we moved it to my room until I feel asleep.
