I lay down during the exercise. Couldn't keep my head upright. Somewhat vibrationally coming out of that one.. Little awareness during it where I was or when. I thought I had all the time in the world, but I'm supposed to meet Jesse in an hour. I almost stayed sleeping through the next exercise, but remembered the suggestion that it's better to come to full consciousness between exercises. Only when I saw the timestamp, did I remember about meeting with Jesse.

Also, it's way hotter than just 28C in here now, I bet. (with windows closed)

4:12pm JST Wednesday 30 August 2006

I woke up relatively early today (as per my plan to get more aligned with the sun) though I didn't get a lot of cleaning done. I did eat and do dishes (or at least gave them a good rinsing) and took out the trash.

Read an article about swirly light bulbs, set to be the next best thing since the light bulb. Save energy and good for the world and all. I like the aspect of GE and Wal-Mart looking at the business plan as a big push to get everyone on fluorescent bulbs, and then having the light bulb market shrivel to 30% of what it is now.

Much better than fighting the wave the way the media industries do.

Jesse and I are going to meet in Shibuya soonishly. We were funny in chat, talking about prime numbers and stuff after I noted it was 12:34pm when we started chatting:

me: hey
Jesse: hey
me: it's 1234 o'clock
Jesse: wassup
yes it is
me: what time are we meeting on Friday?
Jesse: 1234
me: okay
1234 is good for me, too
Jesse: anytime
ok 1234
then
lunch too?
me: I will need to splt by 135
or 1357 for sure
but we can get a lunch in there
Jesse: there is no 135
me: it's 35 minutes after 1300
Jesse: or could be 5 minutes after 1300
your statement is ambiguous
me: yah, but it's numerically pure
no pesky even numbers
Jesse: oh the purity from odd numbers
me: zactkly
Jesse: yes, even numbers can be divided
we don't want them
me: hahaha
only prime numbers for me, please
like 1237
okay, so 1234 on Friday
Jesse: 12357
me: do I owe you money?
Jesse: yeah 1234
me: coo
I will bring it
Jesse: no, i owe you
me: if yu have change for 1500
Jesse: bring what?
me: I'm willing to accept money.
I'm being silly
and answering as if your answers to my previous questions are intended for my most recent questions
Jesse: how many hours did you work on the tapes?
i see
me: I don't remember
Jesse: 20..something
great
me: sounds good
Jesse: you wrote it down
me: I would say I spent about 40% of what you did on them
Jesse: i did one extra job than you
me: Even if I could find the paper, I don't know if I could positively identify it
Jesse: great...
me: yah, I remember the last job you did was like 1 tape or so
Jesse: I "think" it was 22 or 24
me: and you told a story about not wanting to split such small jobs..
Jesse: that one tape took me 7 hours
me: 22 or 24 is great
I honestly don't remember and will be happy with anything
Jesse: ok it will be 23 then
me: only 23???
Jesse: since it is a prime number
me: HAHahahahaha
nice
Jesse: what!
23 times 30 is...
me: oh, I thought you meant 23 seconds
you should be more careful with units, there, Mr Assumptious
690
Jesse: hahahah
minus 10% of tax
so 620
me: 23 * 30 = 690 - 10% = 621
620 is equally cool
Jesse: right, 621, that is a prme number, so I will give you that
me: I'll bring 379 yen change
Jesse: no it inst'!!!
me: sorrry
Jesse: 623 then
me: is it prime??
Jesse: yeah
gotta be prime
must be
not sure, but prolly it is
me: 7 * 89, boyiiiii
Jesse: oooh yeah, you're gonna get served 623...
too bad, you gettin that UN-prime number YO!
me: dawg!
Jesse: UN-PRIME! HA!
me: Don be sendin' me no composite cash payment!
Jesse: i ain't you dawg, cuz i gonna serve you that composite stash
me: How about 619?
That's definitely prime
Jesse: hmmm... 619
me: I just checked it
Jesse: sure
me: AND

Jesse: Ok, WOWOWOWO!!! Upside down too!
me: wowowooooooooo!
Jesse: damn boyiiiii!
me: and then you can buy lunch with the remaining 3 yen
Jesse: you a genius
me: yep
Jesse: cool
me: I know how to use my computer to calculate prime factors
Jesse: shiiiiiiiiiiiit dawg

me: shhhiiiiiii
Jesse: shhhhhhhhhh, quiet
me: how about some Prime Minister Soilent Green?
Jesse: eh?
me: that's disgusting sorry
Jesse: I know Soilent Green the movie

今日、渋谷のマックで日本語イメールで日本語の先生探しています。メトロポリスと言う雑誌で先生のメール見た。

後、なんとかのホームページでも先生探した。それで「時々日本語を勉強したいけど時々日本語が嫌い。」書いた。

テキストや私の日記や勉強したい。

Text = 私の日記、「元気２」テキスト、いろいろ書き物おすすめくれて（日本語のメトロポリスなかんじ）

Comment = 毎週二回ぐらい勉強したい。時々がんばります、時々日本語がきらいからがんばれない。
先生は私の日本語が好きもきらいな時「なるほど」言ってくれてください。漢字も話すも勉強したい。
ぜんぶひらがなを書けるけど半分カタカナを書けない。漢字を１００枚ぐらい書けます。

私は桜新町から渋谷までのテイキを持てます。だから、もし先生もその場所に住んでよかったと思います。
