It appears we've got stable internet access at the apartment now. Woot!

Kumiko

3:55pm JST Saturday 21 April 2007 (day 13541)

Kumiko drew a map of Kichijoji for me, and suggested that we go to the nearby park! We left the lesson and walked over there... about 7 minute walk each way and about 10 minutes to look around. Good times. I must say that's about the most exciting lesson I've ever had.

Tomorrow she's going to come to ultimate!

I'm totally tired, but I just want to say I was happily reminded of Hermann Park and the zoo and pond in Houston. I'd like to see what it looks like now. Hmmm.

Nice. Went to the same park with Naori. With ice cream.

今晩Junoのバイバイパーチのために六本木でJunoとアヤコとミホとクミとマリコと一緒に食べた。その時日 本語しゃべれてがんばった。いつもアヤコと話した。日本語はへたんだけど、彼女はやさしかった。

食べる時私たちだけはレストランでいた。

Fuck; I'm way too tired to write in Japanese.

Great to see Juno, and shockingly wonderful to walk into a restaurant otherwise deserted except for four (4) women at a table in the center of the room.. friends of his, but still, four women all for us! I met them: Ayako, Miho, Kumi, and Mariko, whose English is pretty darn good, and who arranged the dinner. Totally great.

I mostly talked to Ayako: she's an administrative assistant (or I'm too tired to remember correctly) and is pretty cute. She tried hard to keep a conversation going with my slacking Japanese. That was nice.

After chowing, we headed to a club, where at first I was just happily dancing, and later I realized I was nervously dancing, cause I was afraid to talk to two women, one of whom had clearly smiled at me. I finally realized that was stupid, so I walked over and met Julia and "I don't have a name." They both came to Japan looking for adventure, 10 months and 6 weeks ago, respectively. They are both working at Nova.

We got bored of each other; they didn't believe I was not on anything (cause of my high energy), and had never gotten drunk. I didn't believe the second one's name, and they both smoked, so whaeva..

Went back to Ayako, for whom I had grown a bit fond of talking, and then she had to take off suddenly, and I went over and talked to a woman semi-behind the DJ Booth. Her name is Grita (sp (I think she spelled it as 4 letters, but I don't think Gita is correct..)) and I knew immediately she is from Germany.

Interestingly, she tried to place my accent and looks; she had pegged my heritage as northern European, but then when I spoke, she gave up that idea; the said my accent was quite beautiful.

We talked a bit and I met her friend Michi, who is/was looking for a language school in Shibuya, so I gave her the school name and phone number.

Juno et. al. left, and I continued talking to G for a bit, and then I headed home.
