Day 6: Last Sleepover Party ; Day 7: No Sleeping?!

Day 6: Last Sleepover Party
10:00am: I wake up, fixed the bed, took shower, fixed self, ate breakfast, and talked to Ate Reci.

11:13am: Jon & I talked on the phone. Ate Reci and I talk again, as I upload yesterday videos on YouTube.

1:30pm: Ate Reci & I left to go to Kamonomiya to go to Donki to buy the electric blanket I wanted, $23. I won't be cold in Chicago anymore!! It's won't make fire. I also bought 2 rice triangle food. I ate the fish one and gave the other to Ate Reci. Ate Reci bought me Calpis. I really like "Cow piss."

3:00pm: Ate Reci & I went back to Omiya station. This Japanese man cuts Ate Reci and I in the line. Ate Reci got mad but she was laughing and talking to that man in English. "Hey you. We're talking to you. Look at me!" But he won't look!! So I laughed and laughed!! It's great to know a "code" language, English. Omiya station is like a mall. She showed me where to buy bags and I got a $10 bag. I didn't bring any from Chicago, so I needed one really bad.

4:00pm: Ate Reci & I went to Higashi-Omiya to go to Shimamura ("mura" means cheap in Tagalog). It was the first time I felt normal!! I'm MEDIUM!! I'm Fat?? But I fit everything!! I have boobs. I haven't found my pants size yet. I got thick thighs. I'm going back. I wrote down the directions. Higashi-Omiya...find the park...walk straight...walk in circles until I find Shimamura. If lost, ask.

6:30pm: We meet with Aimi at Omiya. We go to Shintoshin-Saitama to eat at a pasta place. I liked Aimi's food and the pizza. But Lou Malnati's is still my favorite in Chicago.

8:00pm: We go to the convenience store (like everyday) and take all the yogurt (again). I wanted to take a video of Ate Reci and Aimi taking the whole stock of yogurt (like they do everyday) but I forgot to put the battery in my camera! We dropped off our shopping goods at the apartment.

8:30pm: Aimi and I wanted a hair cut so we go to the Beauty place. Wow, it was super fancy. I've never been in such a fancy parlor before. The parlor was closed at 8pm but since Ate Reci, Aimi, and I were laughing and so happy, the #1 stylist said Surely, we'll open the door for them!! I'm so flattered. lol, the stylist wants me to wear contacts...just like my mom. Contacts only last 8 hours, so I wear glasses. Glasses doesn't dry out my eyes as much as contacts. I became a member at the parlor. Lovely Place!

10:00pm We're back at the Warabi apartment. I talk to Hiro for 2 hours. He's really good at English, just like Aimi and Ate Reci. I'm so happy!! I feel like I'm just sleeping over, rather than being far from my family and Jon in Chicago. I feel so at home.

Thank you, Ate Reci and Aimi, for letting me stay at your home. It was great staying over for 5 nights in a row. I really appreciate your help and time. I hope I can stay at your place again during my stay in Japan. Let me treat you both to dinner, ok? :)

Day 7: No Sleeping?!
12:00am Jon called and talked to me. I love him. I love the stories he told me about Snowflake learning where to poo. :) Snowflake bit Jon and wakes him up. I want Snowflake to love me...

12:30am Aimi and I talk. My gosh, 5 days and we choose NOW to bond. I showed her Snowflake on my computer...humping the elephant stuff toy, peeing on Hiroshi's bed, and jumping from the table.

3:33am: I'm typing this, so you all don't forget me. If you want a postcard, send me your address!! Or else I'm not buying you a souvenir. It's ok, I'm poor anyway.
