I got my first present from home today!! AND it's a brilliant one - Thank you so much! I'm thrilled, touched and a little bit giddy with excitement. The rest of you can all send me presents too you know. Or is that my job to be sending them home? Hmmm... possibly. Anyway I can't possibly go shopping for presents today because its ever so rainy and cold outside. And I have to practice my lesson for tomorrows class which will involve me saying various letters, numbers and fruits over and over again. There's something I'm dying to write about but not sure if i should as this is, after all going to be on the world wide web for everyone to access. There was a strange person in training today. I really shouldn't say more ... read more

Ok, I'm starting to relax. It's 40 minutes into my training and a british guy has just gone into great detail explaining what I need to do tomorrow afternoon, when I take my first class. It might not be as bad as the panic attacks keep making out, I can have a test run tonight at home and be prepared. Hmmm... somethings happening outside, Mr Trainee goes to check it out, I hear him say "She's ok" and then come back into the room.

The restaurant shifted first to the left, and then to the right. I put down my chopsticks and glance around the restaurant. The general noise has gone down, but no one else seems to be panicking or even have noticed that the third floor restaurant is dancing about on the street with us inside it. It must've been my imagination. But ahhhh! It can't be my imagination because the restaurant is moving again! Why will no one else notice this! I simply can't be this drunk, I've only had two drinks! "Sanae" I gasp "What is that?!" Sanae swallows a mouthful of Omurice and has a calm sip of her Kahlua martini. "It is just an earthquake" she smiles assuringly at me and goes for another casual bite of chicken. Just an earthquake? Just a freakin ... read more

吉澤ひとみ Graduation Concert OMG it's the concert day today, i was soooooooooooooo excited, but things weren't quite going to plan... nothing i seem to want to do goes to plan.. It rained today which made the day feel even more gloomy, i was starting to develop a cold and was feeling really under the weather, and there was a really strange incident with the guys which involved us leaving late for the concert... OH YEAH and i forgot my binoculars. I thought i had woken the guys up, i could hear keyboard tapping from their room and one time i thought i heard someone answer me, but at 12pm i went to look in on them and they were still asleep it was really weird. Anyway after they had got ready we headed off to Saitama ... read more
