DAY 28 : Bye bye money~~ and MUGYA!!! LIMITED EDITION NODAME CUP! AHAHAH!

Hello everyone~

Today after class Daniel was like "I wanna go back to Book Off!"

I laughed so hard XD
And he gave me the angry stare~
AHAHA~ XD

Today I wanted to try the Pepper Lunch in Japan.
So everyone agreed to follow.
The everyone is Natalie, Ivan and Daniel.
So well went to Pepper Lunch.
Man… everyone goes there to eat the Steak ~
I ate the Beef Rice thingy.
The menu apart from the steaks is TOTALLY different from the Menu in Malaysia.
They like ONLY had MEAT (Beef) dishes. @_@ *cries*
No Salmon.
No Salmon Carbonara Spaghetti *cries*
Anyways, the Beef rice was still AWESOME!
Just because it is eaten with everyone AND it is the PEPPER LUNCH IN JAPAN~!! WOOOHOOO~~~

Then we left to Book Off to Daniel's happiness~
We went there and he straight away bought what he wanted.
His money is really seeping away from him XD
Then I took like 20-30 mins standing infront of the BASARA Artbook.
Taking it out, holding it in my arms, opening it, closing it, show it to the others, put it back into the shelf, take it out again, flip through it again, compare and awe at the price difference and put it back again and take it again…. It kept on repeating for very long~
The original Price is………….. 2400yen!!!
The Price I got it for is……………….995yen! AHAHAHAHAH!!! Awesome right??/
And it is still in a nice and new condition.
It is like 2 times better than the other book I bought.
Yea… I bought it in the end ………….. *runs in the corner and hide*

So we walked around Book Off and was there for like an hour plus!
Almost everyone bought something except Natalie but I think she has her eyes set on some stuff here and there.
But there is like this very AWESOME discovery.
Any Detective Conan fans reading this blog?
Well, listen up~
Detective Conan Original Second Hand comics Volume 1 – 34 : Price is = …………………………………………………………………………………..

….



..

..

300yen ONLY!

Awesome right?
Imagine… 1 volume is normally about 400-500 yen.
Here you can get all 34 volumes by only paying 300 yen~
Imagine that~ *Epic music plays in the background and spotlight shines on the 300yen price tag*

Then Natalie left to go home cause she was really tired.
Now it was my turn to get something which I have been having my eye on since Monday.
Yes.
It is the Legendary Limited Edition only available in Japan
NODAME CANTABILE CUP WITH THE MONGOOSE PHONE STRAP ATTATCHED TO IT!!!!
*EPIC MUSIC PLAYS ONCE AGAIN*
Ivan videotaped the whole scene.

Commentator : Daniel
Cameraman: Ivan

The cup is filled with Ginger ale! YUM!
The Japanese love Ginger ale~!

Then that was it really.
My previous post, I forgot to mention that I took pictures of the arcade near my Language School so here are the pics:

Then with that we just played some games in the arcade.
As we were about to leave the place, they set up this new game.
It is called "Music Gun Gun"
It's a shooting music game.
Daniel and I were the 2nd pair of people to have tried it.
It was so easy man!
We got 1st place! HAH!
Not everyday you get 1st place in an arcade game in Japan I tell you!

Then Ivan left to go home.
But I was craving for some ice cream and Daniel wanted to eat crape because for some reason, Crapes are REALLY popular in Japan.
So we went to this shop and Daniel got his Crape and I got my Ice Cream.
Here's the funny thing.
I ate it… and I found out it was yogurt flavour!! @_@
*cries*
I thought it was vanilla!
I got scammed!
Nah, I just didn't read the whole sign.
The flavour was written like at the top right but like REALLY TINY!
*cries*
I still ate it all though.
Another funny thing was how they named the cup sizes.

Small = Cute
Medium = Sexy
Large = Glamorous

AHAHAHAH! I know right?
Then they have like different toppings which have their own name.
Like mine was "Plain" with nothing on top so mine was called "Plain Cute"
Here are the pics of it~

Then we went back to our homes.

DAY 27 : More poison spreading~ AHAHAHA! What more can you ask of me? :P

Class was as per normal.
Then… We went to lunch and then all the fun begins~

Today I got to hang out with another classmate of mine.
Her nickname or Japanese name which has been created from her chinese name is Misaki san.
Misaki San is also from China~
Very matured and organised young lady.

I took Daniel to the big Book Off store which I went to on Monday.
He saw so many things he wanted XD with a very cheap price.
He ended up buying like 2 CDs!
AHAHA!
poor guy~ :p
Thanks to me, he has spent sooo much money in one month XD :P

Then we left and he was happy and cursing me at the same time !

AHAHA~ Oh well :P

As we left the shop and was thinking of leaving to go home...
An American lady came up to us.
She was lost.
She had a meeting but thanks to the trains she got lost and she missed her meeting.
And that time she had troubles finding the place which the meeting was held.
So we helped her.
Daniel led the way first then got lost.
We spoke in English in turn , Misaki san couldn't understant what was going on.
But everything seemed pretty under control so we just tagged along.
Along the way I explained to Misaki san on what was happeneing.
Then she was like "Why didn't you say so earlier? I know where the place is !"
AAHAHAHA! Man... so fail~ XD
So halfway Daniel got a bit lost and Misaki san lead the way~
She was awesome~!

So we brought the American Lady to her meeting place.
From there we left our seperate ways~

DAY 26 : Research!

Today went to class~
Nothing different or unusual.
Daniel was absent again though.
Natalie and Ivan came! Yay!

After class, Natalie and Ivan wanted to find out abit more about the Special training colleges so we went to the 2nd floor of the school where they keep all the catalogues and books which have all the info on all the colleges and unis.
So we were stuck there for about an hour of 2 just looking at the pamphlets and checking everything out.
Then Ivan told me about this Special Training College called HAL.
I checked it out and it looks really promising.
He told me that he will be going to go look at the college this Saturday.
I am SO GOING!

Then Natalie went home.
Ivan and I had lunch in Yoshinoya then we talked for about another hour or so about life here in Japan and about all the colleges and stuff~
Next thing we knew, it was already 4pm!
So we left to go home.
Went home and relaxed.
Did my homework and study.
Nothing much today~ J

Night all~

DAY 25 : Alone~

Today I woke up feeling GREAT!
My stomach problem has disappeared!
I was right, I definitely ate too much!
So from today onwards, I will control how much I eat.

Btw, I forgot to mention, yesterday I got a Package from REINA!!
YAY!! <3
They did say that they will sent me rice from Okazaki.
But I thought they were kidding.
And On Sunday, she sent me an sms to tell me that they have sent the rice!
I was like, OMG!
Yea, so it reached the house last night.
So today I decided I will make onigiri! :D
Btw, they didn't only sent rice… they sent SEAWEED and SHREDDED SALMON, CHA SOBA!
And I tell you, the rice is enough to last me for a month!
I might be sending rice back home XD

Yea, so got up at 6.30am.
Cooked the rice and went upstairs to finish up some home work which I haven't finished XD
Then got ready and all.
By that time, the rice was ready.
Went downstairs, made the onigiris.
Then left for class~

Today was weird!
Natalie, Ivan and Daniel all were absent! @_@
That is like SUPER RARE!
Natalie eventually came for class after break time.
Then she rushed off right after class ended!

Everyone left to do their thing.
And I found out that I was left alone today! @_@
First time!
I had left over onigiris which I wanted to give them today…
So I ate all that for lunch~
Then, I did some of my homework.

Started to get sleepy so I decided that I will go home.
Of course that didn't really happen XD
I strayed abit ~
Decided that I wanted to go find out where Pepper Lunch is again.
So As I was walking there, I saw… BOOK OFF~!
This time, an even bigger store!
So I decided to go take a look there after I was done with finding Pepper Lunch.
After walking a while, I realised that I was sort of feeling abit lonely~
It's been a while since I was alone walking around.
And I realised how I have been so used to people I know around me so much that I totally forgot what loneliness was like.
And… it wasn't a nice feeling at all…
HOMESICK~!

Found Pepper Lunch and made a note to self that I have to so eat there before I leave Japan.
Then I walked to Book Off.
It was…….. HUGE!
And the selection compared to the other Book Off store is like… WAY MORE~
So I spent like 1 hour plus looking around and reading some mangas XD
Then…. I saw… ANOTHER BASARA ART BOOK!
Which is WAY BETTER than the other one I bought XD
But they both have their own good points I guess~
But what was even better is that it was selling at… 999yen!!!!
The original price is………….. 2400yen!! AHAHAHAHAH! AWESOMENESS~~~
But I decided to not buy it yet…

Then I left the shop and went home.
Had dinner and found out that Ivan overslept and that Daniel was sick.
Did my homework and went to sleep~

Btw, thanks to not being able to study for my kanji test, I only got 72 L sadness!
But today's test felt really good!
I think I should be able to get another hundred. :D
And it has been decided that I actually go and visit Reina during Golden Week!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

DAY 24 : NODAME CHAN!! And… WHAT? SO EXPENSIVE?!

Woke up and felt better but still very uncomfortable stomach…
My conclusion is that I ate too much and all the fried stuff like reacted in my stomach and produced so much air that I am feeling like I want to vomit…
AISH!
Thanks to that too I woke up at like 3am having a REALLY bad stomach ache ><
Couldn't sleep until about 4 am plus.
Went to school feeling all groggy and bad.
Didn't get to study much Kanji.

Went to class.
Somehow managed to live through it.
Kanji test wasn't good at all L oh well…
Then I stayed back in school for another half an hour for this getting into Japanese University/ Special Training College proceedures explanation thingy.
Really glad that I did.
The teacher guided us on what to do.
If I still continued to study in Arc Academy and start applying for college, they would like help out with the Entrance exams and all that.
I felt more assured~
asked them some questions on my current dilenmas.
Which made me have to think through about my future plans again~
Need to go home and have some long talk with mommy and daddy~! :)

Then lunch time, I decided to take it easy.
I ordered "お子様ラーメン" (Kid's Ramen) with corn~
Ahahaha! It was like this tiny bowl with bear pictures at the side XD
AHAHA! But it was yummy~
Everyone laughed at me~ cause I ordered the kiddies meal~ HAHAH
But lucky I did.
That small bowl was enough for me.
And it allowed my stomach to relax abit more.
I was tired and feeling horrible still but i… FORGOT MY KEYS TO GO HOME!! *cries*
And Keiko-san will only be back at 6pm +
Sigh… So I had no choice but to stay out until 5.30pm
So I decided that I will go watch a movie since it will not require me to do anything and I can let my stomach calm down.
Decided to watch Nodame!!
Ivan and Daniel followed along.
Although Daniel was hesitating abit cause he was like really tired…
But he came in the end.

Went to buy the tickets and guess how much was one ticket?
.

.

.

.

1800 YEN!!! OMG!! THAT IS LIKE RM60!!!

.

.

.*Dies* But I still wanted to watch it so oh well. I could have got it for 1500yen BUT! I just had to forget to bring my student card too!
AISH!
So I reluctantly pay 1800yen.
Daniel had his student care but he didn't have this "Alien Registration card" so he couldn't get the full discount.
He had to pay 1500 yen.
Ivan on the other hand, had all his cards so he got the ticket for 1000yen.
NOT FAIR~!!!

Anyways~ Went to watch the movie.
It's Daniel's first time watching Nodame so he has no clue on anything haha!
But he liked it~
Ivan liked it~
I liked it!
The ending for the live action beats the ending for the anime ANYTIME!

Then… there was this Nodame cup which you could buy for 600++yen
I WANTED IT!!! L
But… I decided I have spent too much today…
I WILL BE BACK FOR YOU NODAME CUP WITH THE FREE PHONE STRAP!! MIAO!!!!!

Then we all headed back.
Made it home and had dinner.
This time I made sure I denied any extra intake of food.
Cause you see, the past weeks I have been fed REALLY well!
Too well until it's like over fed everyday.
That's the Japanese's hospitality for you.
But I can tell you… for their small size… the Japanese eat A LOT!!!
The grandpa like eats DOUBLE of what I eat every night I tell you!
So today I ate what I could.

So my stomach got more happy.
Did my homework, studied for my Kanji happily and went to sleep.
After some chatting of course HOHO~~
