How's everyone lately?
It makes me really happy to see that you have patience to follow me even though I quite suck at updating lately. Anyway. It's been a little bit more than two weeks since I moved to the new place. I really love it! And finally I've got rid of almost all trash that came with the moving (such as carboard boxes and paper bags..).
I even got a TV from the real estate, woho! It gives me a little bit comfort when I feel lonely, haha.
I promise to upload pictures of the apartment as soon as I've tidied everything up.. because there's still a little bit left. Same goes for the "final touch" ;D
Anyway I have put up some small things to give the room a little touch of me, haha.
For example I put up my small army of Gloomy Bears by the TV. Originally they're limited edition for a convenient store called Family Mart that you could win in a lottery they arranged. Though I was lucky to find them all in a small collectors store in Nakano Broadway^^
Grenade apple / Mango / Kiwi
Aren't they cute?^^
Aren't they cute?^^
And the other day I got a call from Shou asking if he and Shiraishi-kun could come over. Of course they could! We had a couple of beers together and chatted for a while until the boys fell asleep on an extra futon (japanese matress) I had prepared for them. I find hanging out with friends at home is really relaxing and fun.
Unfortunatelly we never played Wii, which we actually talked about long before they came over. But I guess we we're just all too tired to think of it, haha.
So next time I hope that I have some more interior pictures to show you. Actually I'm on spring break from this friday until the beginning of April so I should have plenty of time to arrange something^^Once again, thank you for having such patience with me. I don't think my own mother would have such patience.. you see.. she's always like "C'mon, you haven't updated your blog for like 2weeks! I wanna see what you're up to!". Haha^^
Well well. I guess she's right!
I'm going to bed now because I have a lot to do tomorrow. Hope you're all doing fine!
See you soon!
Yay, new upload.
SvaraRaderaYour mom is reading your blog? Really? That's so cool. My mum would never do that, I think~ (but I have to say, that we speak on the phone nearly every day). Probably my mum is my best friend. Is that sad? Not so cure about that...
Looks like you three had an nice, relaxing evening!
+I love your gloomys! I've got three gloomies (plush). One pink and bloody~ and two smaller ones (pink and yellow).
Yeah she does^^ it makes me happy that she likes it as well, haha! You know, my mum is actually like my best friend too.. I don't think it is sad at all! Its just a proof on how good relation we have I guess :)
RaderaOh you do? I love gloomy!! I was a more dedicated collector some years ago, though lately I have to buy other things for my money :( though if theres some over I can spend it on stuff like this^^
Hello! Hope you don`t mind me asking you a couple of questions? :) As I have plans to travel to Japan myself and stay there for some time, I would like to know if it was hard at the beginning to live there as a foreigner? You do speak japanese, right? How long did it take you to learn to speak fluently, did you study it at home or just learn by speaking?
SvaraRaderaThank you so much if you can find the time to answer! :) Love your blog, your life is very interesting to read about and I really admire you for going after your dreams there! Have a nice day~
Hi Eve. I'm happy that you like to read my blog^^
RaderaOh you're planning on going here^^ that's great!^^ Are you coming to study or just to visit?
When I first came here I had a lot of help from friends to my family who are japanese. I think it could be difficult if you don't know japanese, because even though you can use english sometimes you shouldn't count on that it will work all the time :(
I don't know when I became fluent with my japanese but I started -conversating- after about 4months. I studied in a language school, but never at home >_< I guess I found it more effective to practice while I was out.. but it takes a while until you know enough words and actually have the confidence to - not just talk, but also listen. Again this is probably different from person to person.. some learns faster, some slower.
I hope this is some kind of help.. :O
Hi, thanks so much for answering! :) Thanks for asking, I have plans to go to a language course or language travel, don`t quite know what`s the correct term, I`d love to study there if things go smoothly but I have pets and I don`t think a bunny can survive an airplane ride :( But even a month per time is good enough!
RaderaAnyway now I`m more couraged to just come and learn by speaking and listening, thank you! And I`m looking forward to your next post! :)
