Hanging out at MTki's house

I really didn’t do much today since I woke up really late. I didn’t get up till 3pm. I just kept on sleeping, I woke up a few times, but ended up going back to sleep. I think it might have been because I was so tired from the day before.

I made lunch after I was talking to my family. They have decided when they will come to Japan, so that’s very good. The time has been set for December 21st to January 3rd, but then I forget about the teachers’ trip to Kyoto this December. I’m hoping that it’s before my family comes to Japan, but I’m not sure that it will be. I think that it will coincide and that won’t be good for them or for me. The whole time I was talking to my family, it was all about the trip they will take in December. They have set the date and will probably buy the tickets very soon. Now that these things have come up, I’m not sure what I’m going to do about it.

Then I made myself a spaghetti dinner. I bought a lot of spaghetti so I have to eat all of it before next year when it goes bad. So this will be a common meal that I will make. I started to get everything cooked and ready and popped in Bad Boys II to watch on TV, but then MTki invited me to have dinner at their house. So I decided to go since that would be better for me to have dinner over there and save the spaghetti for tomorrow. I think that it will still be good. I had everything ready and I even tasted it and it was good. I’m happy that I’ve started to cook for myself, it’s really something that I didn’t do in the U.S. but have started to and now I’m really beginning to take care of myself. I think that I’ve saved a lot of money this way too.

They had oden and other types of food. There was this very delicious salad and tofu. I really enjoyed dinner over there. I was able to eat a lot of food while I was there since I’ve had some practice a few days before with all the eating on the school trip. Some of the foods that I had were different in taste than I had before. I thought it was very good although everyone else thought it was just average. But I think that it’s because they know what it’s supposed to taste like and I’m not in tune with their tastes. Since some of them like some pretty nasty things like natto. There was a lot of conversation and I stayed there for a long time. I think it might have been for at least 5 hours watching TV and movies and talking some of the time. We had some ice cream and then I left to return home after I spilt a glass of water on myself trying to get something. They were going to go karaoke, but I decided that I wouldn’t go. I had enough smoke in my lungs to last me for the rest of the year. It was pretty bad and I realized that when my mom meets them in December, it probably won’t be a good thing. But it’s ok; everyone is entitled to their own opinions.

Then I came home to type this entry and to shower. I needed to get all the smoke out of my hair and off my body. It was a little strong for me today. I also wanted to get all the dog hair off of my body too. That was it for the day, pretty simple and nothing really exciting. Oh yeah, I would mention that I did see a bit of Bulletproof monk today, but it wasn’t really that great. I couldn’t really hear it either since everyone was talking a tad bit too loud for me to hear.
