my new place!
October 11, 2005
I am having two days off in a row and trying to move in, but everything I bought won’t be delivered until this weekend, so I am still staying at Aki’s. I spent so much money today, very scary…a bed, a small table, two chairs, a washing machine, a refridgerator, and a microwave oven. OMG…how do I survive until my next pay check… I put all of the electronic devices expenses for December. I was going not to buy some of the stuff, but it would be very difficult to live without them, especially I work a lot and until late.
After I picked up my key and measured the space, I decided to go this big time shopping, but I got so hungry…and then I ate a soba noodle at the standing noodle shop. It was actually my first time to eat at a standing noodle shop. I saw only middle aged men eating there and it was a little bit intimidating, but I tried it, and it was good!! Everybody ate so fast and I ended up being the last person, haha..it was only 300 yen which is less than $3..a soda noodle with vege tempura on top…yummm…free cold brown tea as well…it is located by the station which I am going to use every day…
I think I like this area. There are many small shops and narrow roads. I started liking them..
I have so many things to do to make a new place liveable. Today, I had to call a gas company to make an appointment tomorrow. I have to be there, so that they can show me how to use them.. the electricity was there…the space is empty, haha..I am going to clean the place tomorrow.
Last night, I talked to Harper by using Aki’s headsets. It has been a while since I talked to him for real, although I talk to him over AIM all the time. It is different. Aki has a camera and talks to her friend just like a video phone. I should get a camera too, so I can talk to my friends by seeing them.
Oh, becca had a baby!! I am so happy for her. a healthy cute boy!! I wonder when I can meet him…what a great news!
it has been a good day. I love having a day off on weekdays, because I can easily avoid the crazy crowds.
ok…it is time to cook..
