Now at Sonoda Women's University!

Just as a note; I'll try updating and commenting as much as I can, but since the university doesn't have wi-fi, I'll have to...uh...well, whatever, I'll find a way to do it. :D

We got lost this morning after arriving at Tsukaguchi station, south exit. Asked directions and the lady said for us to turn at the big door(??) and go straight. We got out of the station and made it to a crossing, and we met some man who spoke very good English!

"Are you going to Sonoda University?"

HOW DID HE KNOW OMGGGGGGG also, he's already been to Brisbane. o: tl;dr he helped us get there, and it was a few minutes later that we met him at the administration office...at the university, lmfao. xDDDDDD FATE IS AWESOME.

Dammit, need to go now! Aaaaah, lunch time~!! Try to update later, not sure whether my host family have internet at home. They're picking me up at around 1:30, so... Guess I'll see you later!

Went to Spa World today! I would have taken photos, but you don't want to see naked people, right? @_@ I freaked out at first because they didn't have private changing rooms (change there right in front of everyone, naked women walking around the place with no shame).

Then again, this is Japan, and it's a cultural thing, right? So they'd be used to it. Damn foreigners who are ashamed of being naked. XD

Lucky for us, we met two Australian girls who were just coming out of the women's spa, and gave us some tips.

"There's larger bath towels in the spa, and you have to go in there naked."

Spa water was pretty hot. @_@; It felt like this fat Eggy was boiling to her imminent death, woohoo. In Spa World, there are…six or something eight floors. One floor is the European Zone (4th floor) and the 6th floor is the Asian floor. This month, the women's only floor is the European Zone. The "Greece" spa was hooooooooot, the "Finland" spa was cold, milk and honey spa was nice since the water wasn't clear and you couldn't see anything unless you stood up, (I seriously want to stay there a little longer, but no), then we went to the 'restaurant' for a foot spa.

Yeah, sit at semi-circle tables naked and soak your feet in water. It started getting really hot, though, so I had to stick my legs straight so it wouldn't get into the hot, hot water. @_@; (You could watch TV as you soaked your feet and/or drank/ate food. That guy on Mr Brain that's in charge of the audio stuff was on a game show. :D

+_+ Didn't get to go around the different 'countries' even though I wanted to.

See, this is why I want to go with a group of closer friends. Dx I spazzed because I saw Hiroshi Tamaki on a ramen commercial. |D SHAMELESS FANGIRL HAS NOT DIED. ALSO, WINNIE IS A NODAME CANTABILE FAN. IF THE MONEY HAS ARRIVED AND I HAVE FOUND AN ATM, THEN WE'RE GOING TO GO WATCH THE MOVIE, YUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.

tl;dr by the time we'd decided we had enough, we were a little bit braver when stripping off, but not so much.

Hmm. So. First thing this morning... It was prolly 12 degrees Celsius, but that's fine with me. I left the hostel without wearing my jacket and started walking off towards Shin Sekai, jacket hanging off my arm. Some guy on a bike was staring at me and was all, "しょーーーーーー".

Yeah, I know I'm hot, stop staring. xDDD

Then a little further on, this baachan called out to me, "Aren't you cold?"

"No, not at all~!"

"Ah, youth!"

Gee~ xD

Uhhhhhhhh mundane details, mundane details...

- saw live turtles in a little tank outside a restaurant at Shin Sekai
- had Italian spaghetti at this little place called tea room STAR; has American pancakes and coffee!
- tried to walk around to find Tenoji Park, but got lost and somehow managed to walk through Abeno(bashi?)
- BILLIKEN, THE GOD OF THINGS-AS-THEY-OUGHT-TO-BE [insert creepy grin]

I guess LV is more common than I thought in Japan...? Saw this little LV foldable bench.

I AM YET TO TRY THE JAPANESE TOILETS THAT WASH YOUR BUM FOR YOU

Also noticed that even if you speak English to Japanese people, they'll try their hardest to speak back to you. It's so cuuuuuuuuuuuuute~~~

forking shiitake mushrooms and basketballs I need more moolah.

Waking up early tomorrow so we can check out of our hostel (Hotel CHUO) and make our way to Amagasaki. Here's hoping we don't get lost! :D

Ooh. Got a new roommate. Didn't get to see the previous one at all because he checked out while were were away.

...and it looks like our new roommate is a guy (he just came in, just as I was writing the last sentence of the paragraph before the previous sentence. I'd better get to bed since it's already 11:35 pm and I need to wake up at 5:30 am!

GOOD NIGHT!

First of all, my seat on the flight to the Kansai airport wasn’t a window seat. It wasn’t even the aisle seat next to a window seat. It was the aisle seat in the middle. This totally sucked because I didn’t get to see the gorgeous sunset. Bright red right against a dark blue sky, ah~! I should have taken a photograph with a proper digital camera, but meh. All I could be bothered taking out at that time was my Aha-n (DSi). Blaaaaah. Anyway.

There’s supposed to be four of us right now, but Ferycia couldn’t come last moment because her grandpa got hospitalized for something, and she had to fly back to Indonesia. Sigh. =( At least Kate is joining us tomorrow!

On the train from Kansai Airport to Shinimiyamisdf lskdfjwhatever is, I accidentally chose the priority seating for us to sit in. Oops. 8D

Japanese lady sitting next to me kept saying random stuff to me, about half of which I actually even understood, and my runaway mouth started and didn’t even think of the proper grammatical structures in which to converse with her in, so I sound like a total n00b who picked up a Japanese-English dictionary and started talking like in the sentence examples provided.

Flight was fine, except for the random bit of turbulence, and that one time when the plane felt like it just started dropping straight down like when you’re at the peak of those pirate ship rides. Or at the top of those rides where you get ridden to the top then free-fall all the way down.

Lessee…

When Winnie, Laura and I finally got out of Shinimayaosidjfla station, we were a bit lost as to where our hostel was. But it’s okay, we found it. 8D

My first meal in Japan was rice with fried chicken with lemon, mayo and lettuce. Dunno what it’s really called since I asked for the English menu. >_> Some people were watching us eat because I still have no bloody idea how to eat, Japanese style.

Our dorm is a mixed sex dorm. Winnie, Laura and I took up three of the four beds, and some guy is taking up the fourth bed.

Didn't get to see him at all because he didn't return until today (29th), but it wasn't even me who saw him. Winnie did when she went back up to the dorm~

Took a shower and oooooh, they're nice. 8D Haven't tried the flashy Japanese toilets that wash your bum for your yet, though.

Went to a restaurant for dinner, and the song that was playing was Nishino Kana's 'Motto'. 8D YAY. A SONG I ACTUALLY KNOW.

Also...still got a headache from Friday. T__T

Ashanti - idk Maiko's friend
Maiko - some n00by SID fangirl thing
Lilly - sosweetpain
Sakura - xxkrissykoo
moui - mikamoui
Eggy - MEEEE...and I didn't even make an appearance in this section of the convo.

Bored, xxkrissykoo, mikamoui and I went to troll some n00bs on Pigg. 8) This Maiko girl claims she's 15 years old. ← Important info for this convo. They're most likely the same age since they're friends and go to the same school. Ahem.

( the fail starts here )

You can't "grow up" with Versailles because they're new. Oh, that is, unless you're about two years, old, right? Sheesh. |D

8) Haven't done one of these in a while, so hey, I might as well, ufufu. Stolen from sidluva

( Start the meme~ )

I think the highest score anyone can get is 99. Look:

[x] - You are under 20 years old.
[ ] - You are over 30 years old.

You can only have one of these filled in, or neither of them. 8D Can't do both, darling.
