Wednesday, only one class today, Japanese. I woke up and I studied for my Japanese kanji quiz. While on my way inside school I decided to actually look on the BB and i noticed that my name was on the board and it said URGENT and that the post had been up there before the long break, shit.... So I was kinda nervous since the ppl back at school have been e-mailing all of the information that I thought that I needed to know. I asked the teacher if it would be okay if i could head over to yotsuya. Once there i ended up walking to the wrong building but i checked out the arubaito and i saw one and wrote down the phone number. So then I finally found the proper building and it was what I thought, my school registration stuff. I went to the conbinii and bought some toppo as well as some other cholocate stuff. i went back to class. Today I promised Leah that i would go to the immagration bureau with her, so I made sure that I had my paper. The quiz was easy, and then Leah and I headed out. I forget which line he took but we ended up at Ochamizu or something. Once we got out we only had a little inclination as to where we were. So we looked at this sign and it told us to go straight and so we did but there was no immagration bureau, damn, kinda lost... So we walked around aimlessly and I opted to go back in the opposite direction since the map that leah had kinda royally sucked. So we walked back in the same direction as we originally were and then we both agreed to walk over a street. Go figure... it was the right street :P We found the building due to Japanese directing us since we looked like lost foreigners and somehow leah and i both missed the huge red firetrucks *the immagration building is right next to the fire department.* We went inside and went to the second floor and took a ticket and waited. It turns out that we were in the wrong room, so we got tickets again and filled out this paper. We ran into someone that Leah knew and she was talking about how she went to hong kong and bought a shit load of stuff since everything is inexpensive. Then I commented on how i want to go to Thailand *sigh* as well as Hong Kong. Leah and her friend ended up forgetting their passports and endedup being the only one to fill out the paper and it will be done in two weeks. So we left and leah was talking about how hungry she was so I said that there are a bunch of places on Kagurakaza dori. Once there we found this really good soba shop. I ended up buying kinne soba, and i forget what leah got but it was good as well. I opened up the map that i grabbed at the subway station, and i looked on the map and commented on how i wanted to go to Asakusa kanno, and we decided that we would do it Saturday and i decided to sleep over :) Then I asked if she had ever been to Mandarake, big mistake... then she insisted that we go since i would have not mentioned it if I did not really want to go. She then said the magic words "i'll pay your train fare" :) Okay... thus we were off, first things first finding the place. I remembered walking down this main street when jim was here and we walked by the Thai restuarant that Jim and I ate :) Then I realized that I was on the wrong street, so we walked down the other one, and then I realized that I was not sure where I was going but i made a turn and then another and I thought I knew where i was going but it somehow did not look familiar... Then there it was *yeah* Naturally once I got there I went straight to the artbooks. I went through a lot of them but the first book i noticed was the Ah My Goddess artbook, mine. Then i found a Kenichi Sonada one, and the other Aquarian Age book. I found a lain book and leah wanted it. We looked through the posters and then went to check out. Leah asked me to use my credit card to pay and that she would pay me back so I agreed, and then i left two of the books since i did not want to put too much on my credit card at once. While leaving we walked in the arcade that was adjacent, and we where looking at one of the games and then some Japanese guy came up to us and we could not understand a word that he was saying. He then gave us money to play the game, Leah and I thought it was weird. Then Leah said that she thought he asked to go to dinner with him we could did not tell if it was for him or his grandmom who was 88. So we left and she went and bought some hair dye as well as went to get money at the ATM for me. She gave me the money and then I demanded to go get a crepe... hmm... crepe... i bought the fruit mix one and she bought the peach one and i downed mine, while she was still working on hers. Then I kept commenting on how she was the devil and how I had to finish my project :P She laughed we bought our tickets and then parted ways. Once I got back to the dorm i ended up working on my presentation for tomorrow and i finished my power points and i was anal retentive about it being perfect.... it must be perfect....grr.... perfection caused me to stay up until 3:30am, ugh....
