Yes! my friend, Yurie is coming to Chicago in July. I am super excited. I’ve known her for several years now. She is great and has cool tastes, and we appreciate similar stuff and sometimes we suffer from similar stuff too. Of course, we cheer up each other. We went to France together while ago. It was a very fun trip, especially because her French friend was showing us around in Paris and Nice. We had a bottle of wine every night.
I have been thinking about where I should take her, and what we should do. We ususally hang out or eat out or drink whenever I am in Yamanashi.
Last year, Kaori came to visit me. It was very fun. She went through so many things like immigration stopped her (I felt so bad for her. She was kinda tramatized by this experience…), she encountered bath room flood (she had never used a plunger before!) She thought she caused a lot of trouble, but not really. I was very worried about her whether she was having a good time. I think she did. She loved Paper Source, the store which sells fancy papers and some craft things. She had a huge steak with Harper. She liked cat fish that I made. I am glad that she came to visit me.
I wonder what Yurie wants to do in Chicago. I am sure we are going to hang out and talk a lot. We have to catch up a lot of things. She likes cappucino and she makes a good one by herself, so I have to take her to Peet’s. She has a fancy milk steamer and even grades cinnamon every time she makes a cup of cappucino. See how cool she is…. I am excited that my friends and roommates can meet her.
Now, I am going back to Murakami’s book. I am a half way done already. I can read it fast since it’s in Japanese. I think that especially Murakami books always give me a urge to know what is going to happen next. I read his Norwegian wood in English, and I think I read it pretty quickly, but not as quickly as in Japanese.
What am I going to read after this? any suggestions?
