After the deep chat with Jay I've decided to finally introduce my future wife, you know since we had that married couples share a path kinda of talk.






Isn't she pretty? Of course she can be really bossy at times, but I think she would do the best wife.

Please treat her nicely wwwww

Stalking this guy.



So, I am currently stalking this guy ( see my background) around Japan, for unknown reasons - I say unknown because well, what does a English to Japanese translator serve for in Japan?

Which is why I'm using the word stalking, because it sure feels like it. Despite the fact his long hair is fake (it's a good enough reason not to stalk someone, isn't it?)

For argument's sake, let's say I don't have anything better to do, and I love live concerts and traveling, to clarify why I'm going to go around Japan for the next month. Or simply because I can.

Bottom line is, I'll be in a lot of places, and I don't know if I'll make it a priority to update the blog, so in case anyone wonders where I am, well, I think I've answered that.


Also, while traveling around, I'll do quite a bit of thinking about what I really want to do with my life now that university is over. There's this strange thing about Okinawa ( the place I'm at right now) that makes you really analyze yourself and your life. One of the most important people to me used to come here a lot when he was faced with difficult decisions, so I took his example and took a long walk down the beach to clear my head.

And I came to the conclusion that while stalking people is fun, I ought to do something for myself, with my own life. And while giving your support to a cause, or a person, or even an idea is something admirable, looking back on my life 10 years from now and thinking, all I did is support someone else is not something I'd like to experience.

There's also the thing that I've sadly learned that in the end, all things considered, we are alone with ourselves. Even if things are ok, even if you have people around you that you love, you don't know how and when the paths you walk could separate.

I didn't use to think that, and I know I'm probably being selfish and stubborn for not listening to any other opinion anymore, but I'd like to be secure and standing on my own two feet, on my own path.

That doesn't mean I feel less or that, someone is less important in my life. It just means that, to quote and contradict earlier song by said guy with fake long hair and a pantless drummer (w) I simply don't think that you can "Survive with love" anymore.


I'm a really difficult person to handle, and sometimes find myself wondering why do my close people even bother. I know I can be cold and selfish, and once you've lost my trust is nearly close to impossible to get it back.

Maybe they like the challenge? But if that is so, and I'd change, and let all the things that keep me this way go, wouldn't they just end up getting bored?

Whatever the case, I feel this time around I'll come to a conclusion that I'll be happy with.

Japanese horror movies.

So, today I've been quite literally forced to take some time off and do nothing (nothing was really descriptive as Kage ordered, and Kaji was turned into my guardian for the day, to make sure I do NOTHING. That included studying, translating, cooking, or cleaning ( heck, I don't know how Kage came up with that one, since I never really clean unless I absolutely HAVE TO).

Kaji was more than eager to force me to do...well not do stuff, so he stalked me through the house all day and I couldn't get even a page in. It was infuriating, but truth is i love seeing them work together like that. Kage just doesn't know he's gonna get payback for this, and I'm sure he won't take it as calmly as I have.

Anyways, since there's only that much God of War we could play ( well basically we could have played more except for the part where Kaji almost smashed the tv because of that part where you have to push a box over a spike covered floor...within a time limit).



Ever played it? Couldn't find that exact room, but yeah.


Anyways, when trying to figure something else to do we stumbled over the DVD collection. We used to watch a lot of movies before we moved to Kyoto and tho Kage hates horror movies, me and Kaji were crazy enough for them to have mostly ever Japanese horror movie out there. So, we had a 4 movies marathon: Ring, Grudge, Pulse and One missed call ( I hope I got the English names right)

Fun facts about this movies are that:
1) americans remade them all
2) american versions are so sucky they're fit for a good comedy night a
and 3) I'm happy they did tho, I'd very much rather see Americans killed by vengeful spirits than Japanese people w.

Seriously, which of them would you rather died?
vs


That being said I'm still trying to figure out what the heck happened in One last call and I'm doubtful of Kaji's theory that the director and entire cast got high towards the end and that was the result. And what was with the sayonara song? Was it made to screw with your head? Because if yes, it worked.

Wonder if any of you saw this movie, if you did do share your theory.


Watching ring reminded me of how I scared Kage, it really seems so long ago. We both grew up so much since then, I wonder if we could ever be that carefree again.

Then again I don't necessarily mind where we are now. Not at all actually.






(That, of course, doesn't mean I'm not tempted to see if I can play another nasty prank like that on him again w)

North America & settling to a free life w

I'm aware I've been taking really long to update and probably worrying some of you that I might have overdosed on coffee and chocolate, but that's not the case, so rest assured I'm perfectly fine and genki (a lot more so this days)


Anyways, it's been recently decided that a trip I have to make to North America will be in June. Now, for those of you who know what I am referring to, this is not yet released information, and I shouldn't be writing anything about it, except for the fact that I'm sure just a bunch of people read this. So especially you Hizu-chan, if you read, no matter how tempted you are to say anything about it have some patience, it'll be announced soon, ok?

This is really horrible timing in regard to J's stay in Japan, so I'm hopping it can be towards the end of June, but ultimately, I'm not the one who decides this kind of things at all ( obviously w). I don't necessarily look forward to traveling there either, but enough of complaining about that.


So in the crazy past few weeks there were a lot of things to settle, some of which had been just partially solved. The situation with my uncle's house is still pressing as I haven't managed to sell the car yet, mostly because I am legally obligated to add a file on any accident the car has been in, if severe enough to require a traffic police investigation. Needless to say,my case fits right in there, so I had to actually ask for that file, and then have the people at the service that fixed it also give me a detailed repairs and modification history before I could even set it for sale. It's a logistical head-ache, seriously.


However,a down payment was made and the term on the loan is extended, so we can at least partially relax.


So, me and Kaji have finally moved back to Tokyo, it's weird for all 3 of us to be in the same house again but Kaji and Tatsu are a lot nicer to each other this time around. I'm guessing they did miss eachother to same extent ( or I'm just being hopefull?) what with them being 'bros' and all w.

As for me, I've finally found the time to just relax a bit, and start doing some serious work. Namely studying for the bar exam, and doing some translation work.

Some legitimate translation work since I've got my license now too ( I'm assuming the lovely teacher that asked me if I thought I knew everything had a fit when she had to give me 100% on the translation text from hell they came up with as a final license paper - if she actually had anything to do with it)


That being said, I'll be trying not to disappear entire weeks anymore, now that I've settled down
( not that there were a lot of things I had to move to Tokyo, more than half of my stuff had somehow ended there through the year, which is peculiar, considering I've only spent the week-ends there and then the entire week in Kyoto)


Well, peace.

Lack of sleep.

Having a bit trouble sleeping again this days, it's annoying ( so, I end playing with my blog's template because of that, w)

For last night's dinner I tried to make lasagna and failed dramatically. I contemplated posting a picture (mostly for a certain punk that wouldn't stop complaining that I never made HIM lasagna) but
it was too disastrous to even attempt.

It broke down, collapsed on itself and ended up looking like some weird kind of stew.


Well, as far as I'm concerned it's ok, I dislike lasagna either way, I'll make Bolognese Spaghetti next time, I can't fail there. Hopefully.
