・a week in the life of sin・

'wow and flutter' - stereolab

been an extremely busy week this week...here's what has been going & what will be going on...

Friday
went over to Lala's and ate lovely pizza, drank delicious wine & talked lots and lots. was a very mellow & much needed evening - thanks sweety.
and on the topic of wine, i want to recommend one of the tastiest white wines i have ever had. and it's from new zealand. never thought of new zealand wine before. didn't even know that there were wine growing regions in new zealand... you can buy it at Bic Camera in Shibuya (for home drinkers) and La Boheme (for more social drinkers)

Saturday
went to the annual Tamagawa Fireworks Festival. this is really near my house, but i have always seemed to be busy. this year met up with Peter, Minako, Christian & Yuiko & we did it properly. beer, mats, munchies. they were very impressive too. really recommend this festival as it's actually 2 in one. Setagaya-ku (on the Tokyo 'other' side of the river) and Kawasaki simultaneously set of their fireworks. as we were sitting in between the two, we ended up with sore necks - kind of looking at firework tennis...
was very impressive though & surprisingly uncrowded.

Sunday
Got a new fridge (thank you, Peter). And it is a nice orange one.
then after that was Michael & Shingo's 10-year anniversary party. that was a good afternoon/evening. i intended to go home by 10. ended up leaving at about 1am, which wasn't goo because...

Monday
i went to Osaka for the day for work. i had to get up at 5am. still don't know how i managed to survive the day AND i went to Blue Corn on the way home a couple of drinks...

Tuesday
went out with the Blue Corn Family to was Toru's band Psysalia Psysalis Psyche play. they get better every time i see them. i have bruises all over from moshing all over the place & jumping off random surfaces...
was a very fun evening. again, a little too much fun - went home WAY later than i intended. also turned out to a bit of a flirt-fest & i ended up dirty dancing with Takeshi in a seedy nightclub...

Wednesday
overslept by an hour, but managed to be only 10 minutes late for class.
after class, i bought some crocs. yup, jumped on the bandwagon, but i bought these really cute ones that look very un-croc-like...might buy some more in different colours too...
in the evening, met up with Mooney to help him write english lyrics for a song that he's providing for a movie soundtrack. don't know much about the movie, but it's got Masatoshi Nagase in it...
how cool is that? i get to do lyrics for a song that's going to be in a cool japanese indie film!
not sure when the movie's due to come out - guess sometime next year. will keep you posted...

Thursday
stayed home & painted my nails. and watched prison break. man, that boy is HOT. silly story though. but did i say his H-O-T!!!!!! nothing like a bit of eye candy to finish the day off....

Friday (Today)
Tonight is Dave's b'day bash. should be a fun evening...and hoping Sandi will come along too...

Saturday
Recover?

And that is the week that was, with a little more to go...
