Thursday... presentation day, and yeah I was slightly stressed. Working off of 5 hours sleep I was on the edge of completely exhaustion and completely anxiety. I meticulously picked out my outfit and then I even pulled my hair back a particular way. I went over in my head what makes for efficetive public speaking. Then i was wondering how the teacher would take to my methods of public speaking. I left for school early so that I could print out everything. While I was in the computer room Ceceil walked in and I was being weird and commenting on how much I had worked on it. I was planning to write e-mails since I had been so busy to do so lately.... I realized that I did not have the time to write any e-mails. Cecilia at that moment was writing her bibliography. We had to go, we had class in five minutes. She sent her paper to the printer but it did not print and she was upset since she had not saved it. First we had a Japanese test which i felt like i did horrible on. During lunch I headed to the conbinii which i bought my onigiri and bread with chocolate chips, with Marade and Leah. Ceceil needed to go the computer room and rewrite her bibliography. Then she e-mailed Leah and apparently her paper had printed and she meet us downstairs. I grabbed a chair for her, and then I started to eat the bread with chocolate chips and I commented on how that is was just a big cookie. it tasted exactly like a large cookie... Marade was right. She was also telling us about her encounters with the yakuza. Since her friend asked her if she wanted to go the bad part of Tokyo and she argeed. She said that they were openly carrying guns and that her friend needed to put his arm around her to prevent the men from grabbing her. Since we had some time we opted to go our class room. Ceceil was getting nervous and I was trying to reassure her, and i asked her what her article was about, what was the main points, etc... I even told her to pratice and she had that if she did that all she would do is laugh at herself :P Once we got into the classroom there were all ready ppl there so that option was out. People were starting to fill into the class room and i started to become nervous. I was not trying to show and I let the extra energy go to singing and doing relaxing things. After a good half hour it was my turn. I felt like I rushed it, but I opened the class with a question "who is electrolux?" immediately the class perked up, anything to participate :) They seemed to enjoy my article and they were interested in it. After I was done I felt like i rushed it slightly but the response was overwhelmingly positive. Once I was finished I glanced at my watch and I noticed that we only had a half an hour left of class. I also saw that I had an e-mail from my boyfriend. It was a rather sad e-mail and I felt bad since i have not had a chance to contact him in awhile.... i miss him and he was not having the best of days... Next class Buddhism, the teacher informed us what is going to be on the final and he kept reiterating how it was going to be pages 1-140 which really is not that bad. I was happy. During class Leah and I kept writing back and forth, and we did not pay attention whatsoever. After class we walked back to the station and we talked a bunch and then I went back to dorm, and naturally started by doing homework. Dinner time and i kept asking ppl if they knew who was a sub., back to work then i meant to write some e-mails but i still had work to take care of. I asked Ann if she wanted to go the 99 yen store with me since i figured that it would not take long. Ann and I ran ran to the 99yen store, and i ended up buying bread and a round flashcard thing. I talked with Ann about teaching Erika French and I commented on how rude I thought it was of Erika to ask me to ask her to teach her french. I dunno it is a thing i suppose. Quickly I went into the 7-11 and bought some greentea icecream. Then there was decoration meeting at 10 and I went into there and ate my icecream and they basically wanted to know our schedule and when we have midterms. Afterwards i worked on the case study once again. Miki was in the room so we began talking and I digressed and i began looking at pictures of Shiba inus. Then we both decided to go to bed, but even up in my room and I ended up doing a bunch of stuff like studying for my quiz tomorrow as well as drawing, so i still did not go to bed until late. oh well here's to lack of sleep :P
