Big surprise today

« At the hospital | Home | Resume, resume, ooh-la-la »

I got a big surprise today, so big that it’s the only reason I decided to write this post in the first place. I have some free time today to get some stuff done and as I was looking for shorts that needed cleaning for the summer and I picked up the route 66 vanilla shorts with the blue stripes on them off the floor and checked the pockets. Felt a nickel, pulled it out expecting it to be a nickel and to my surprise it was a Japanese 100 yen coin from my return from Japan. Had I not worn these shorts for that long? Must haven’t since its been awhile since its been this hot. Yup it started to make me think about the voyage home and deciding to leave Japan and actually doing it, like having to convert all my money back to American and having like a dollar or so left I couldn’t convert back, hence why I presume it was still in my pocket. So those were the shorts I wore back? I think I was wearing week old jeans? Hmm maybe it was another day while I was there, most likely… I really don’t like those shorts anymore, I would only wear them if I had to. Well now that I think of it I can remember pillaging through my suitcase, a couple times completely covering taka’s living room floor with wrinkly clothes, trying to find new clothes to wear since it was so hot in taka’s apartment that all the clothes I would wear would get sweaty real easily and I was running out of choices besides to wash them, and I didn’t know how to use the little washing machine since taka was gone all day and couldn’t show me so I remember I was desperate for clothes and so I must have wore them to a quick trip to the next door conbini or something to grab a curry packet or some gogo tea.

Sean R showed me his tsukuba packet today. He got the JASSO, even though his picture looked really scary like. Well I would have to say I was hoping Nate would get the JASSO rather than Sean but I mean if they judge by income and need then let Sean have it if Nate can afford it. That’s the thing Nate claims he doesn’t have a lot of money and his friends say that he does and that his dad owns his own business selling hearing aides or something like that and Nate says he barely makes enough money to stay in business or something like that but I don’t know… rich people never admit they have money so.. Like I said if Nate can afford it I don’t care he didn’t get it but if he can I’m happy Sean got it.

Its been fun staying at Julie’s place and fun cooking food with her and hanging out. Yesterday we went to Target and bought Skip-Bee because I played it at Nate’s house the night before and it was really fun. Then we went to buy dumpling and made them but they didn’t turn out too good but I mean it’s hard to make dumpling taste bad so they were alright. It’s just too bad she’s really busy with classes and her job. I applied for two library positions pushing books and the lady for the one said that the hiring guy is on vacation, so that’s just my luck. There is also a radiology internship I need to get my butt moving on but I’ve been putting it off because I need to write a resume for it and I hate doing that because I hate writing statement bullshit.
