Updates

I get busy with drinking and clubbing on the weekends and then I get swamped with lots of work on the weekdays.

It seems like it's been that way the last few weeks.

I thought I was doing good at balancing work with leisure, but a couple of weeks ago I got attacked by allergies and a cold at the same time when the weather was changing.My body couldn't handle it all at once.
Then I got really sick.

I was talking to a friend in Canada online the other day and told her how I got sick after staying out really late two nights in a row.Then she said "So you got sick after partying all the weekend and you think I'll feel sorry for you? Ha!".But she also said that she would come over to Japan to take care of me in 14 hours if I needed her.
She is a great friend of mine.

Just a week after I got sick, I was already up and about wandering around in Tokyo.
I spent too much money at ZARA but that was expected.
It is probably a good thing that we don't have any ZARA shops here in Shizuoka.
I would be broke all the time.

Then it came another drinking weekend.
It is probably not a good thing that you have a friend who has a tiny but cool bar where you tend to get free drinks from some drunken rich men.
Well, yes, actually it IS a good thing.
How could you turn down an offer to buy you a drink?

But it is most definitely not the greatest thing to get too many tequila shots and tequila based cocktails when you are already drunk enough.

I didn't think I would want to go out the next day I had the slightly-losing-memories-friday-night.
I guess I was wrong.

Saturday night a friend who moved to Kyoto last year sent me a text message and said she was on her way back to town for the weekend and if I wanted to meet up with her over a few drinks.
There was no way I would want to miss the chance to catch up with one of the coolest friends of mine.

So I ended up staying out late two nights in a row again this weekend.
I didn't get sick this time.At least not yet.

Today was a national holiday here and it was such a beautiful day.
Only within a few ours, I ran into a friend who doesn't live in Shizuoka anymore in the bus(that was random), saw a few friends at a park and tossed a frisbee, took photos, met a guy and made friends with him, had two films developed, thought and talked about having a photo exhibit.

And it was all in the lovely fall sunlight.

I loved it.
