In all her bitchy, blazing glory.  Jesus motherfucking christ.  I have sweat so much in the last 2 days... it's not even funny.  Good for the skin, sure, and I don't think I smell (that much) but I would rather stay fresh and dry.  But it doesn't seem like that's going to happen until October.  I forsee this being quite an expensive summer in terms of my power bill.  I wonder if I should invest in a fan?  I do like the heat to a certain degree... sometimes it is nice to sit with a nice breeze and enjoy the sunny weather but not today.  UGH.

I went on another drinking/spending binge this weekend too.  This week.  I spent 10,000 on Monday when I went to Aeon... then I spent about 7,000 last night on drinking.  We had a work drinking party/dinner at this nice restuarant/izakaya in Kashiwa near the station.  I was hoping Watanabe-sensei would come because I'm bored of the other two younger teachers (and I don't think Tamaya-sensei is actually that young... and Ohkuro-sensei is boring) but he didn't.  Afterwards we had an after party; we went to karaoke as usual.  I was a bit pissed because we went to Shidax and they are fucking expensive.  Plus they were all ordering food as well... I ate a bit but not much and only had 2 beers... not really worth 3,400 yen even for 2 hours to karaoke.  Miyoshi-sensei... god I love him.  He reminds me a bit of my dad for some reason.  He's just so... jolly.  Even when he's yelling at the students to shut up in the hallway he makes me smile.  When we left the restuarant he says, "Okay, where are we going now?  Karaoke?  Heather, you're coming."  HAHA..  I was going anyway... but it seems I've made a name for myself as a party girl and karaoke queen.  Everyone sang a few (the only person to rival me was Miyoshi-sensei) and I whipped out my 18-ban because they wanted me to sing a Japanese song.  So I sang Sakura sake (of course it was Arashi!) and got a great round of applause afterwards. 

I met Taka after the afterparty for more drinks.  He said he would be heading back to his parents house and stop in Kashiwa for drinks that night and we would see how our schedules matched because I didn't know what was happening after my nomikai but he was in Ueno just as we finished karaoke so he came out and we had a few drinks at the Hub before they closed.  Then we had street ramen and went back to my place and crashed.  Ahhh if only he was single.....

We farted around in the morning, watched TV, got some lunch, I did laundry and then we left.  He went to buy some fresh clothes and go to his parent's place and I went to Abiko to get my hair cut.  I think I met the infamous Kenji because he asked if I was Amanda's friend.  He's is amazing.  I love my haircut.  :D  It's pretty much the same but he put loads of layers in the back while keeping the length so I can make it messy and flippy now and the front curls on its own now.  And my fringe is fixed.  I even got a free mirror as a gift for coming back to the store three times.  Next time I go, I get an official member's card.  Haha.. what service.  Does that mean I get offered coffee when I go next time?

Dan's farewell party was tonight.  A bunch of people just came to Ben's place and had some food and drinks and then we went to karaoke.  Another unsatisfactory karaoke experience...  I really don't like going with lots of people because I like singing so I don't feel like I get my money's worth.  1060 yen for an hour without booze.   Karaoke-kan is also expensive.  And they we pissing me off at the end because everyone was standing around with their thumbs up their asses when we were leaving.  I was getting quite frustrated because I hate leaving it until the last train.  It makes me anxious.  Anyway... it was fun but hot as fuck.  They only have 2 aircons, one in each bedroom and even though we had the windows closed the cool air didn't go outside Ben's room at all.  It might have had something to do with the twelve-odd people in the room as well...

Ahhh so finally I'm home.  I didn't drink much today because I couldn't take it in the heat.  It just made me feel sick.  I am almost done my sports drink and the room is nice and cool now so I'll be able to sleep.  It's supposed to be cloudy and shitty so that means it's going to be humid as fuck.  I have a load of laundry to do and I should take a stab at writing more of this chapter.  I am in the process of downloading Maou so I can watch it and see what everyone is raving about.  I can't wait for subs eventhough I'm sure they'll be out by broadcast next week. 

God I fucking stink.  To shower or not to shower?  That is the question.  I am extremely low on bodysoap so... it'll just be a bit of a rinse.  I should blog about Tanabata for the family tomorrow as well.

This is the first time I've been tagged by name to do a meme!  Excitement.  I'm surprised I didn't sleep my entire day away (just the morning).  And so far it's not deathly hot in my room now that I've turned the AC off.  I think I might survive if I keep the doors, windows and curtains closed.   Time to do a load of laundry.  Maou is almost finished downloading. :DDD  Yay!  And Starr's second chapter is posted!!  I have to work on mine today too. 

The meme with no name. )

So I just watched it. And at the risk of spamming the internets with more of the same shit... I am extremely impressed. Ohno seems like a completely different person -- that is to say, nothing like himself (as I know him from MMA, GnA, Himitsu, etc). I have only seen Toma in a few things and don't know what his own personality is like but he is a strong actor.  And rather manly.  Which is a total turn on.  The girl who plays Shiori is so cute; I wonder what her role in things will be. The supernatural informant?  And the five seconds of Nino.  God, I love this hair cut.  Please keep it for a while.  <3  I am tempted to watch the Korean original so I can understand the story better. Another thing to download or stream, I suppose. Thank god summer vacation is coming soon. 

Speaking of Maou, an email came from J-web on Friday from Ohno:

いよいよ、本日TBS夜10時よりスタートします!
初の連続ドラマ主演! 『魔王』! 初の弁護士役!
皆様、不安でしょうけど、大丈夫です! 僕も不安だから(笑)。まぁ、毎日一生懸命やってますので! 長期間、役に集中するのは大変ですが、今日から約3ヶ月、是非とも大野智の『魔王』をご覧下さい!

At last, today at 10pm on TBS it starts!
My first serial drama! "Maou"! My first role as a lawyer!
I think everyone must be anxious, but it's alright! Because I'm anxious too. LOL. Well, everyday I gave it my all! Concentrating on the role for a long period of time was hard, but for the next 3 months please make sure you watch Ohno Satoshi's "Maou"!

He really does like the funky emoticon exclamation marks.  As does Nino in his J-web blog.  I think I had something else to blog about, but I don't.  I am waiting for the final episode of Last Friends to come out... the big climax has arrived!  But, I have a feeling the end is going to disappoint.  I doubt they'll be able to resolve Sousuke's physchosis, Ruka's gender identity crisis and her coming out, Takeru's weird fucked up sister relationship (that definitely didn't get enough attention) and what about Eri and Ogurin? The filler characters get the shaft.  And when the hell does Michiru get pregnant?  If it was Sousuke's, I'm sure she would have lost it with all that beating anyway.  They did an SP (why not just an extended finale?  Dumb) and I saw some icons made from it so I know who dies.  FUCK.  I wanted it to be a surprise. 

The Binbo Danshi subbers have come out with three episodes so I can get on with that now... but I've watched the first four and it's really... boring me.  I don't know.  I love Shun but this is not very engaging.  It's the same crap every week.  I still haven't finished rewatching Hana Yori Dango 2 so I should do that too.  Taka said he wants to watch the movie so maybe I can get him to go with me.  :)

I am ploughing through the rest of Forbidden Colours.  I have about 60 pages to go.  After I do some writing, or maybe now because I'm thinking about it, I will do some reading.  I am so close to finishing... and then I can go hunt for Book Off and sell it and get some money back.  Speaking of money back, I got my taxes back finally.  $250!  Woot.  Which will go to Visa.  Damn.

So... [profile] everystarrfall and I were talking about starting an archive for Arashi fics because... let's be honest, a good half of the stuff that gets posted to [profile] arashirabu is crap.  Okay, that's a bit harsh.  There is some good stuff, but there is also a lot of not-so-good stuff.  Anyway, tired of slogging through the mess that is there (do the mods even do anything?) we decided we need to make an archive.  I think I worked on this thing for... 5 hours?  About that.  I didn't even have dinner.  That's what happens when I get immersed in a project.  I dont' know where my good HTML editor went but the one I have is weird so I was using Notepad the whole time.  If you see any mistakes, let me know.
