Day : Test & Skit Day on No Sleep Monday, May 11, 2009 4:30am: I’m still studying. It looks like I’m not sleeping tonight. I’m hungry, so I eat toasted bread with peanut butter, 2 cookies, and milk.

Day : Continuing Clubbing! Sunday, May 10, 2009 12:30am: At Vuenos, we each pay $30 to get in. Frank pays for the locker, $3. It’s still pretty empty, so we viewed the area. Frank started dancing. I was surprised because I didn’t know Frank could dance! Yoshihiro and his friend comes along and we introduced our friends. It was great to have Japanese practice. 1:30am: The club was getting packed! Candy and I met 2 people named Hiro and Satoshi. Satoshi confused me because he spoke English, said he was Japanese, and he looked Filipino. I later found out that Sa [View Full Entry]

They must be lonely, so I invited them to come along! :) 2:00pm: I ate the breakfast that was laid out for me. I was suppose to leave in the morning to go to Ate Reci’s but…she cancelled our [View Full Entry]

Day : Stupid School Day Friday, May 8, 2009 7:45am: I woke up and stared at the clock. What time was I suppose to leave the house for school? 7:50am: Sh*t! I realized that I needed to leave my house 5 minutes ago! I changed my clothes, rushed up the stairs, brushed my teeth, splashed water on my face, ate the salad and sausages (didn’t even bother making bread for myself), and I said thanks and bye to Manami. 8:00am: I ran out the door with an umbrella. 8:10am: On the train, I studied my note cards, just in case I [View Full Entry]

Day 55: Dinner with Eileen, Leina, and Leina’s friends Thursday, May 7, 2009 12:00pm: I woke up and washed myself up. I asked Manami to check my Japanese composition. I forgot that Daiki had work today.

Ryan, Candy, and I go to the Metropolitican Building, just to find out that it is closed. Then, we ate at a steak/burger place. Then, we walked around. I didn’t buy anything. It was just fun being with friends in [View Full Entry]
