Not much of a day

I didn’t do a whole lot today. But I would like to report that today was nice and cool. I didn’t get up until noon today, which is the latest I’ve slept in this summer. It was probably because I was up till 3am last night because I just couldn’t sleep.

Anyways, I was just stuck glued to the computer for most of the day. I was talking to some friends on mine on MSN messenger. The first time I’ve been online all week really since I’ve been using AIM recently. I don’t think that my computer could handle being on both actually.

At first, I was talking to one of my good friends, but it seemed like she was busy with something else. She was, so the conversation didn’t go very smoothly. She’s one of my best friends and I’ve known her since high school, but it seems that lately we have lost touch. Not that we don’t talk, but that it’s only surface talk nowadays. She had sent me a long e-mail and that prompted me to want to talk to her. But she didn’t want to talk about it really, and I really wasn’t much of a help either. So it was, just blah, really.

Then I was trying to talk to another friend of mine who I’m trying to help get back with his girlfriend that just broke up with him. I’m good friends with both of them, and well, I would hate to seem them broken up. I think that there’s something that I could do to help the situation, but I don’t want to do anything that would hurt in anyway, so I try to do things, that won’t get me too involved, since they didn’t get involved with any of my things. I’m just acting as a mediator between the both of them, so they at least get some form of communication to each other. It’s going to be difficult, but I wouldn’t want one of them stretching his arm out, only to have the other walking away. It wouldn’t be fair, so I’m trying to at least get an understanding between the both of them. If it wasn’t meant to be, then it wasn’t meant to be. I can accept that.

One of my friend’s birthday is today too. So I sent a little message to her. I’ve known her for a little while now, and she’s like one of the first Japanese people that I met and have grown close to in friendship.

Then after all the conversations, I left for a little walk to the station to get some groceries and something to eat. I just needed to get out of the house and get some exercise since I’ve been in doors and in this seat for about 3 days straight. I don’t like the feeling of being lazy, so I just needed to get out. Today was a nice day, so it wasn’t that hot, even though it was a bit humid. I felt good going out and at least getting that walk. It was a nice feeling to actually feel healthy again.

Then I came home and ate a sushi dinner. I had been watching sushi on TV all day and man it looked good. So I had to get some myself. I haven’t had it in a long while, so I thought it was good. I even ate it the old traditional way, with my hands. Since I haven’t had it in a long while, it tasted very good. I missed sushi.

When I finished that though, I started talking to my sister. She had just gotten up for a little while because she feels sick. But we were talking about her trip to Japan this winter. I’m starting to get worried that it’s going to be far more expensive than I could afford. I hope that I will be able to cover everything and that not all my money will be used up on this either. But I want them to have fun and enjoy it too. I’m not sure what I will be able to afford come that time since I’ll have many things to do during that time too. I forgot to mention when the teacher’s trip is too. And I’ll be going on the school ski trip, so that will cut their time in Japan to like 2 weeks. Their finals will finish on December 22nd, so I’m not sure when they will be able to come either. My sister was thinking about whether my dad would come to Japan or not. She’d like her friend to come with her here, and it would be fine with me, but I wouldn’t feel right treating him all the time since he’s not family or anything. But I will for certain things and stuff like that. My sister thinks I’m being a cheap ass, but I’m just looking out for my well being since I’m not sure if I’ll have enough money to live afterwards. Although I’m sure that I will be able to. I’ll just have to find the right budget for everything and find a way to get a good pass for them so travel won’t be so expensive. They’ll have to walk a lot, so that will help I think.
