Cursed.....?

So my period has been over for about a week now and I’m back to my normal not super depressive self! This weekend I went with Michelle to Namba and did some shopping. I bought some art supplies (hurray I was so excited). I also got a wonderful deal on a dress. There is a shop near where I live and I was looking inside at this dress I liked a lot but it was roughly $102.00 so I definitely knew I could not afford it and did not buy it. While we were in Namba I found the same dress at a different store on sale for basically 60% off! So I got it for just under $40. It is really pretty and has velvet. On the way home there was a detour because a helicopter had crashed somewhere near or on the train line we take to get home. So it took us an hour and a half going on a different train, then taking a bus, and then getting on another train to Kongo to get home. Michelle things I am jinxed with the trains, because other then that time I got lost (not my fault) she got us on a wrong train which has never happened to her. So she thinks I am bad luck. Ha-ha, so whatever I don’t think I am. I’m going on the trains again on Wednesday to have a meeting with Shelly the lady who gave me the scholarship (or selected me) and old man is accompanying me on the trip so we will see what happens with that.

Tonight I went for the tea ceremony lesson at Yuki’s and I get to go every single time to try and learn the entire process in one year! Lucky me, because I’m sure the lessons are expensive. After that we went out for Dinner, Yuki’s treat, which was nice of her. On the way out the door she called her son Kay down (the last time he drove me home) and he came for dinner with us. When I stepped out of the kitchen I heard her say something in Japanese and then “fall in love” to him or something. Then when we were out for dinner they were asking me about arranged marriage and what I thought about it kind of. So I told them the story about how one of my mothers Chinese friends was in arranged to marry someone but she told her parents to shove it when she was in Canada and did not have to, and that she was lucky. Ha, so I hope they realize I am against it. So I don’t know if I am being slightly paranoid or if they actually are trying to set me up with there son who is 26 years old. I personally think I’m a little to free spirited/wild for the average Asian boy, and they seem to be 30 years behind in the feminism department.

So I am having people over for a Halloween party the day before Halloween and I’m going to try and make sure I am not hung over for PE the next day. Ha, my outfit is my red long johns with my red corset over top, and a ribbon tail with a cardboard tip in a spade type shape, and then some wicked red sparkly rose coloured glasses that have like horns on them so they look devilish. This is good because I’m dressing up as a devil and I’ll carry around a little fork, and I’m putting my front bangs into two little horns with some gel or something. I can’t seem to find a pumpkin in the store though, oh well maybe I’ll have better luck tomorrow. Well that’s about it, next weekend I get to go see a Sumo wrestling match! That will be interesting. Loves you all!
