Lately I’ve been doing pretty boring stuff like studying, so there’s not a whole lot of interesting stuff to talk about, but I went to a nomikai on Wednesday for the first time in a while (well, what felt like a while) which was a lot of fun, since I got to see people I hadn’t seen for a while. And yesterday I was told by Nami-san to eat out, so I got dinner with Jon at this place in Takadanobaba called Cafe Gasto, which had really good margherita pizza. Then we grabbed drinks at The Cantina, where I had non-draft beer for the first time in a while–good old Corona and Modelo. It was a pretty great man-date.
Tonight, though, I’m on my own, since Nami-san again told me to eat out, but none of my friends could come out. Oh well, it’s nice to have some alone time for once. I’ve been in the library nearly all day, studying for dumb Linear Algebra, so I think I’ll go shopping or something to reward myself. And there’s no better place to be alone than Tokyo.
I do find it kind of weird that twice in a row I’ve been asked to eat out. Before the new year I felt like I was too busy, barely seeing my host family, but now that I have more time they’re busy doing other stuff. *sigh*
I have noticed that things have been pretty tense lately–last night, Nami-san and Akio-san came home drunk, and Nami-san, laughing, told me that they had had a big fight. I wasn’t quite sure what to do, so I just laughed nervously. Is it not just a little weird how lightly they take these things?
Anyway, I’ll stop boring you and let you “fall in love” with Phantogram’s new song. (Hohoho aren’t I clever.)
