dudes! ok i revamped this webpage so now the archives from all my past postings actually appear, and there should be no errors on the page. do you like the new colours? use tha tagboard to let me know. i:ve kept the old format for the archives, cuz let:s be real, changing the ENTIRE webpage would be too much change at once!
well this weeking fucking ROCKED!!! i had the best birthday ever. wait let me think... ya... best one. to face facts, my birthday last year sucked like a leech. i guess it was just real anticlimatic cuz it was the first time in four years that i came home and it was just real blase. no one felt like partying (but the night that we went to the pub, even though it was an early nite was tons of fun) and i guess i wanted all my friends to come out, not admitting to myself that things have changed over 4 years and our group wasn:t so tight anymore. i:m nto saying it totally sucked though. i loved being back with darcy and tash and lyn and liz. i really do miss them. but this birthday made me love special days again. all week i:ve been pulling tha *it:s my birthday, i:ma buy it/drink it/eat it/do it/not do it* excuse out of my head and it:s be great. on my birthday i unwrapped my present to me- a burberry bag and scarf and a burberry ribbon for my hair. i wore tha scarf to work and got mad compliments on it. my day was filled with 4 yr old hellions but it didn:t matter much. i let them run free and climb on me because, well, it:s my brithday, do waht you want! Manager got me some cute presents, a toy train for xmas and a lil snowman to decorate my appt. although atheist, tis still a cute present. i really didn:t want to decorate for xmas since it doesn:t hold any meaning for me but mayb3e i:ll just give in and be festive. it:s really strange that all the stores here play xmas music and have mad xmas decorations. they just totally celebrate the material aspect of it (which maybe isn:t so different from some parts of north america). at night i stopped off at the train station and bought myself a piece of cheescake, pumpkin pudding, and another ooey gooey pastry cuz, well, it:s my birthday. biking home i stopped off at 7-11 n picked up a pogo to eat too cuz, well, it:s my birthday. i will indulge to the fullest! and we all know it:s all about the *go big or go home* mentality with me. saw a super hot babe that works at 7-11-- wild big black dragonballz hair, gorgeous blue eyes, and kickin punk jewelry on. we shared a couple smiles and as i got on my bike to leave i turned around to check him out once more and he was looking at me! heehee, the lil kicks i get out of life.. so i get home all ready for a full on indulge fest when Chima called me. i went out for dinner with her and her boyfriend, saving my treats for later. michelle gave me some cool presents- beer and peach mochi.
this weekend Val came over from Koriyama and my love Cam came up from Omiya and we chilled out in Iwaki. twas the first time they visited and we had a blast. the first night we went to meet Atsuko, Kylie, Sarah (new gaij from Ireland, Louise:s new flatmate), Dan, Jane, and Phil at Black Sheep, and then went for darts and mroe drinks at Sunny Side Up. after we went home and stayed up until 4am talking. When we went shopping on Sunday we saw Junya and Kimihiiro skating outside Mizuho, of course. ahhh... i:m so in lust with Junya. (insert, went for lunch with louise last week and afterwards we were wakling back to NOVA and we saw da boyz boarding so i went up n i was like yo show me some tricks! but J was like meh, no i:m not that good, no no.. so i made him pinkie swear to show me *next-o time*so when we saw them i like like man, do it up! n he was like no no, all shy which was a-dor-able n then he takes me hand n we pinkie swore again! i have no idea why, i didn:t understand it but i honestly didn:t care. he touched me! i will never wash my pinkie again! mmm just kidding im not that hardcore.... ahhh..... *day dreams* i love how the pink on his shirt matches the pink on his shoes... it:s all about the coordination!). i resolve to get with him before the year is out!! i picked up a chilling bday outfit. i wore my mod dress (black, white, mint green and brown swirls), with crisscrossed sheer black stockings, black legwarmers, high heels, a black sweater that u pull down past your shoulders, and my new J Lo beige suede poorboy cap. the first hat i actually look good in! email me if you want pictures! seeing how i:ve become madly vain in Japan maybe i:ll just mass email one out.
i got some cool prezzies+ kylie gave me a plant for my appt, louise gave me some gorgeous facial papers and soap from Kyoto, Ritsuko gave me some NY decorations and this lil good luck monkey decoration (next year is the Year of the Monkey!! full on!), Annamarie sent me a lil tree which we blinged up wit xmas balls and put fake presents underneath. Val gave me delicious brownies, and Cam gave me a beautiful purple ring, a funkey purple purse from an art festival and a stunning purple Marc Jacobs scarf. heehee Val called me a Trustafarian because i:m like a lil hippie with my health food and organic products and crystals but at the same time i:m like oooh Gucci! oooh Marc Jacobs! (Trustafarian is what they call the rich kids that try to be tree huggers/rastafarians but meanwhile tehy:re sitting on this huge trust fund)
for dinner val, cam, dan, kylie, ritsuko, atsuko, michelle, lousie, sarah, and myself went to Bamiyan, the chinese restaurant. the meal was gorgeous and afterwards some of us headed to Shidax for singing and more drinks.

weekly revelation; i kick ass rapping at karaoke!
today the three of us made a delicious spinach, sprouts, onion, carrot, salmon, daikon, and pea salad and brownies. the brownies were TOO DIE FOR. and i don:t even like chocolate!! they were so moist and gooey. we were in heaven. i had such a good time with my girls this weekend, it:s so refreshing to be around new people. i think we all came out of the weekend with a lot of inspiration from each other. Cam and Val renewed my love for Iwaki and have inspired me to explore more of it on my own. i inspired Cam to decorate her place, Val inspired me to be mroe relaxed about teaching and filled me with good game ideas for the kids, and we inspired Val to become a sticker photo club addict. and you bet yr ass we did print club this weekend- three times!!!
also, and maybe this is impersonal but i:m going to do it anyway because i feel extremely stressed out about writing 30 emails out to everyone, i want to thank everyone for the birthday wishes and emails. you all totally made me feel warm and fuzzy inside and it was really thoughtful of you to send an email my way. Tash, Darcy, and Liz, i LOVED your group email!! maybe to cut my stress i will send communal emails to Darcy and you guys can get together and read them. Mouffie, i awoke at 4am from my ktai going off, only to read *Did i ever tell you you:re my favourite Danielle?* you are so sweet! of course, then i got to work later and read the next line and busted up. (it read *what do you mean i only know one Daniellle?*) but i felt special for those 6 hours!
well, tomorrow i have work again, and my frist class is this kid that i just mmm... i:m REALLY REALLY REALLY trying to like. it:s strange cuz he:s a pisces (i have to ask all my kids when their bday is cuz i really want to try to understand where the difficult one are coming from and try to figure them out) and usually i get along great with the water signs (ooh, Junya is a Pisces!) anyways, it:s my first class of the week and i just get so whiny and grumpy to myself about having to grin and bear it for 50 minutes with this aggressive lil shit that busted my pinkie and throws books at me.
wow. i really forgot how much i love the internet. i:ve been here for two hours working on my page and updating. ya i wanted to let you know that if i write things on here and you have no idea what i:m talking about, just throw something up on the Tagboard and i:ll explain myself. i often forget what i write here, what i write in my journal, and what i write home to people.
hmm i feel like singing you a little song. it:s called I:m Happy, and it:s from the textbook Pingu Loves English.
i:m hap-py! i:m hap-py!
ha ha! ha ha!
i:m sa-ad! i:m sa-ad!
boo hoo! boo hoo!
i:m hap-py i:m hap-py!
ha ha! ha ha!
and i love this one, especially after a brutal class
