at my school, they've moved smoking from the kitchen area to a back room. much better than smoking in front of impressionable junior high school students.

dont know if you'd really classify this as metal as opposed to goth... but i just watched bowling for columbine for the first time last night. thought marilyn manson came off really well in the film. he said some good stuff. definitely better than charleton heston.

whaaat? is that story for real?

oooh the white kitkats are great on the mountain. esp if youre at noz and do a skyline run and break off a lil piece on the gondola ride back up. ahh memories onigiri too, but they are usually so squashed from falls by the time i eat em.

dude you should have gotten a mac bc imovie is supa easy to use! oh well. make sure you got about 20 gb free when you do start editing- i needed to buy an external hard drive for it last year.

i've definitely taken up doing little bows (though that the bobbing you hate, O11). it's a good way to communicate your appreciation for something, esp if you're travelling and don't speak the language.

yup, wore my boots out sunday night. noticed several other ladies doing the same and saw a pair of those over the knee ones. but they didn't look that great.

sorry this goes a little off the topic, but i have to vent. last year i went to the gym a few times a week not just to stay in shape for boarding, but also to use the showers bc the crappy one in my apt is totally useless during the winter. i would onsen when the gym was closed or i was lazy, but thats more expensive. so i went to the gym on sunday to get ready for the season and as i was getting my stuff together for my nice warm shower the woman next to me was like- excuse me, but you can't use shampoo in the shower. whaaaaat??? i'm not allowed to wash my hair after a workout? !?!?! th

the movies on bs2 and news on bs1 are enough for me bc i regularly get american tv in the mail

you getting a car soon, rach?

here's some more about cheeseman .

oooh is this a coincidence, or is it cheeseman's home resort??? is that cheeseman in the pic? the mystery deepens....

do the plums know the cheese family?

yikes! tequila prices may go up in the US...

man, i love seinfeld!! it's so good and right on the money a lot of times. maybe it's really specific about american hangups so thats why you dont like it

you'll sleep anywhere then, zwelgy? what about on 100yr old scrungy mattresses for ~150yen/night???

hanging out with too many brits and kiwis i sometimes forgot which expressions are american and which aren't. like do americans ever say "answer phone"??

are you guys seriously this crazy for boots? whaddya think about leg warmers and those chaps thingys from last year? i like boots too bc the keep me legs warm when i wear a skirt. cant wait to buy a new pair when i go back to the us.

anyone get blood drawn at the docs here? i've had it done a few times and they never want to wear gloves. i always have to stop them right before and ask for em. it kinda freaks me out. and they do some other things waaaaay different than in the us.

i've needed mine for changing the names on a car. i think that was the only time.

i made it to korea over the summer. superfun place, with lots of good shopping- clothes and shoes fit and it was cheap! definitely helped having some korean mates to show me around translate bargaining.

whatchu talking about makeup? i've heard stories about your toiletries dude and btw, i fit 4 in my apt over the weekend... but i think i could squeeze in 5.

a new aet. so i guess it shall be renamed chateau blanc.

man it's chilly. was at the ole chateau zwelgen tonight hanging out under a kotatsu. got down to 8 in n nags.

how bout a third choice of, i have em but only for decoration. i think the ones of a pink woman-man in tux are cute! can't wait to wear them out in the us when i go back... esp since they also say toilet.
