I went to Odaiba to shop again !! :-D

This is my second date.... with the boy I met at Shinjyuku last month.. :-p I got very nervous as usual....

We met at Toyosu at 14:30 and moved on to Aomi, where Venus Fort is located. We went to many shops and chose each others clothes and tried many to find the best one's we wanted.

He told me to try a different color instead of black and white. I often wear black, white and dark colored clothes. He chose a light yellow shirt for me. I wasn't confident that it would suit me since I don't have any.... But I tried it....... He was surprised and said to me "You look great and different!! I think it suits you." I got so embarrassed because I've never thought that I would hear such words from him... I tried other items but I think having a yellow shirt isn't so bad, so I bought the shirt he chose.

And what I chose for him...... was quite tough to find what he wanted than I thought....:-P
It was my first time going shopping with a boy... I didn't know what to chose;;;;
Well, I took him to ZARA, TOMMY HIGHFILGER and HIDEAWAYS and many other brand shops....I can't give out anymore... To tell the truth, I got so tired at the end.... I think he was more tired than I was... :-(

Since we walked a lot, we stopped by at Starbucks to have a coffee break... Actually, I was surprised that he would allow me to stop by because he never did before we started dating...lol

At the end, he bought a stylish shirt at HIDEAWAYS and a light sweater to wear with the shirt at A.V.V. It was fun looking at men's clothes, but got annoyed to the question, "What kind of clothes does he wear??" because most of the clerk we stopped by asked me the same question while he was in the fitting room.. I was like "How should I know?!?! This is my first time going shopping with him!! (・д・)?!?!"

Time passed very quickly and it was already 20:00!! We had dinner and chatted a lot about our plans for the 2nd academic year and where to go next. After dinner, he gave me back the CDs I've lent and chatted about PG and Haruichi again!! And when I was about to pay, he said to me that he wanted to give me something....

Was it a gift for White Day?!?! He didn't mention that... but I was so surprised that I shrieked out because I had never imagined that he would give me a gift.....

He gave me this♥♥ Cute isn't it?? (´∀｀人)♥♥

I love rabbits and I don't have much of them so I was very happy. X-)

I think he changed.... But why???? I have no idea..:-p
Anyway, everything that happened today surprised me...:-O

Those of you who know whom I'm dating with...
I bet you wouldn't believe he would do such things....lol

I had a great time!! I'll meet him again at school!!

† 0317 †

Yesterday, I went to Odaiba with Masayo. It was like a little farewell party because Masayo is leaving AGU and going to a different University.. I'm going to miss her but I'm glad to hear she's entering the University she really wanted to go . :-D

We met around 11:30 and went to a cafe which Koumei Nakamura produces Japanese dishes. After lunch, we went shopping Venus Fort and Aquacity. At Venus Fort, we bought clothes at L'est Rose at 70% discount!! And at Aquacity, we bought the same earrings at a good price. We had a coffee break and had tasty waffles. :-9

I also bought a present for my dad because the 17th was his birthday. :-)
Happy Birthday Dad!!(*´∀｀人)♥♥

I had a great time with you Masayo, Thank you so much!!
I want to meet you periodically even though you're leaving AGU!!
I'll miss you but wish you the best!!

† Shopping@Harajyuku †

I went shopping at Harajyuku with Yuma.

Almost a year has passed since I went to Harajyuku the last time.

We were supposed to meet at 11, but we were both late and actually met before 12!! lol.

We first went window shopped around at Takeshita St.. I think Takeshita St. is a peculiar place and you can purchase clothes at a very low price!! Then we went to H&M. Compared to Ginza, more casual clothes were sold at Harajyuku.

This is a picture of the KDDI Designing Studio. It was my first time to see this building.

For a light lunch, we went to Wendy's. I don't like to have lunch at fast food that much, but I like Wendy's and Freshness Burger. :-9

We went to Lafforet after lunch, and looked for more clothes. Yuma bought a very cute spring coat at Olive des Olive. I'm looking forward for her to wear the coat at school. :-)

After Lafforet, we went to Godiva Chocoiste to have something sweet. It is the first place in Japan to open a cafe of Godiva. The interior of the cafe was rich and we enjoyed our break. I had a chocolate beverage which had marshmallows, caramel and cinnamon sauce. The rich chocolate was not too sweet but it was like eating chocolate!! :-O

We went to H&M again to see my clothes. I tried many clothes and bought a jacket, a blouse and a T-shirt. :-D I'll wear them when the weather gets warmer.

Lastly we took our photos at Takeshita St. It was our first time to take photos together.

I enjoyed my day with you Yuma. Thank you for giving me advice for my clothes. I want to go shopping with you again!! :-D

† Yatterman☆★ †

Today, after I worked at SB, I met Kana, my best friend at Yurakucho to see "Yatterman" at the theaters. I have been looking forward to see this movie for months because Sho Sakurai is starring in this movie and we are both Arashi fans. :-D We met at three and bought the tickets, took our photos and stopped by at Benoist to have tea before the movie.

The movie started from 16:40~. Many CGs were used and had many cool action scenes!! I like the animation of "Yatterman" esp. the first edition which was on air around the 1970s. I like all of the characters but I like Gan-chan the best!! The movie was different than I thought. :-O I was quite surprised at the setting of the movie which Doronjyo (the leader of the Doronnbo) falls in love to Gan-chan because he accidentally kissed her!! Kyoko Fukada acted Doronjyo and she was very cute wearing the sexy costume, but my image didn't match.. :-( I think that's because I often watched the animation and my image was already stuck to it. Anyway, there were many funny scenes and we laughed a lot. I really enjoyed the movie and recommend you to see it if you like Yatterman. The picture above is the poster of the movie I found yesterday at the Takadanobaba station when I went skating.

After the movie, we walked around at Ginza to have dinner. Unfortunately, 2 restaurants where we decided to go were both closed!! :-O So we went back to Yurakucho and went to a casual Italian restaurant. We both drank alcohol and chatted a lot. I was really happy to meet and chat with Kana because we haven't met since Christmas!!

Thank you Kana for meeting me periodically and always listening to my long stories!! I hope I can meet you at the class 3-3 party at the 22nd☆★

† IE Girls Party †

Today, I went to Marunouchi with Aoi, Kako and Masayo. It's our late New Years Party!! I have met them personally (one on one), but about 6 months have passed since the four of us met the last time.

Masayo found a restaurant called MUS MUS which is located in Shin Marunouchi Building. There it serves Japanese steamed dishes.The lunch I had was reasonable and very delicious!!

After our lunch, we window shopped in the Shin-Marunouchi building. Then, we walked to Ginza, and first stopped by at Printemps and Maronie building. The sale is still held, so we all looked around many shops. Masayo bought a pretty dress for spring time at her favorite shop in Printemps!!

Then we moved on to Matsuzakaya department store to go to Benoist to have afternoon tea. Do you know Benoist?? If you don't know, check the movie, "The train man"(電車男)!! lol This tea room appears in the movie. I've wanted to have tea here for a long time and I 've finally went there!! Thank you so much!! The tea and the tarte I had was soooo delicious!! X-) I had an elegant time there.

Last off, we went to ZARA and H&M to shop!! Kako bought clothes and a pair of shoes at ZARA. Aoi and I bought accessories at H&M. I wanted to buy a dress because ZARA is still holding a sale!! But I didn't have enough money to buy what I want. :-( I'm planing to go to Ginza tomorrow because I only have one test!! :-p

Time flies quickly and it was almost six!! :-0 I decided to go home and study.

Thank you very much Aoi, Kako, Masayo!! I had a great time!! I hope I can go out with you girls again!! :-D

† Study for Exams †

The exams are coming up!!! How are your studies?? My first exam is from Monday the 26th. I haven't studied that much. ;-(

Today I studied English Literature Introduction with Aoi at Shibuya. We studied at Starbucks for about 3 hours. Bunkamura Street's Starbucks is not so crowded so we can stay for a long time. Other students were there to study!! :-O After studying, it was past two and lunch time was over!! We went to Soup-ya which serves various soup. The naming of the menu are fascinating. We ordered soup with a set of desert. They were delicious. :-D I recommend you going to this restaurant. See it for yourself. ;-)

After our late lunch, we went to ZARA, LOFT and TSUTAYA.

I've enjoyed my day. Thank you Aoi♥♥
See you tomorrow at the IE party #2!! ;-D

† Christmas Eve Dinner †

Today, I went out with my best friend to have dinner. We haven't met each other since October when we saw "Yougisha-X no Kenshinn" together. We met at Yurakucho at 5PM. First stopped by at Yurakucho Marui. The winter sale has started and many items were at a reasonable price. But we thought the second period which starts from New Years Day is better than now, so we didn't buy anything. :-(

We took a picture as usual, and went to the restaurant we reserved. A bar restaurant called "SICON" which is in the Shin-Yurakucho Building. Since it was a bar, we had a course dinner (8 dishes) for 2500yen!! Very reasonable. :-9 But we had alcohol so the actual price for me was 3450yen. I had Ginger ale the first time (not alcohol!! lol) but tried Glass wine (red) since it was my first time to go to a bar. I was a little afraid if I get drunk because I can't drink alcohol. But it was quite OK, I guess. ;-) We ate, drinked and talked for a long time. Time sure flied and it was already past 9PM when we finished our last dish. After we left "SICON", we stopped by at "Krispy Kreme Doughnuts" and had doughnuts for desert. I love their doughnuts, deeelicious!!X-9 We went home around 10PM.

After I arrived home, I opened the Christmas present she gave me. Soooo cute!! :-D I think I said to her that I like "Gaspard et Lisa". She also gave me a beautiful Christmas card. Thank you very much!! X-D★☆ I gave her a pair of earrings and a can of chocolate that I bought at TDR ("Bon Voyage").

I had a wonderful time with her. Not too much to say that it was the perfect Christmas Eve. I'm really looking forward meeting her after the exams next year. :-D

† Lunch@Ginza †

Today, I went to Ginza with Aoi after working at SB.

We first went to Uniqlo, Zara, H&M and window shopped.
I want new winter clothes, so I checked many items. I especially want winter coats because I've only have 2. X-(

After window shopping, we went to Ginza Bairin, a restaurant which serves delicious breaded pork cutlets and other breaded fried dishes. This restaurant is located only in Ginza and Honolulu(Hawaii!!). We both ordered Pork cutlet-rice lunch set. The crust of the cutlet was very crispy, and the pork was very tender and juicy. Very delicious!!!!! I recommend you going to this restaurant. http://www.ginzabairin.com/

After lunch, we walked to Yurakucho and looked at many clothes and window shopped more. We both got tired so we stopped to have some tea-break. We went to my favorite French cafe, Paul. We ordered a cake set. You can chose your favorite cake, tarts and a drink for 840yen!! A very reasonable price for a cake-lover like me!! X-9 You can also have lunch and buy various types of bread since it's a bakery. The sandwiches and bread are very delicious. I like Paul very much because it makes me feel like being in another space from the busy city of Tokyo. Also the cafe is a French style interior, which I very like. I also recommend you going here. Boy, we sure chatted a lot, and time sure flied!!!!

I usually enjoy going to many shops in Ginza after my job. Please let me know when you visit Ginza, Yurakucho or Tokyo. I'll take you to my favorite shops and cafes. ;-)

† The Nanny Diaries †

Today, after I worked at Starbucks from 8:00 to 13:00, I went to see a movie with my friend. Though we were planing to watch " P.S I Love You " at Shibuya, I had a hard schedule, so my friend came to my hometown, Toyosu.

We saw " The Nanny Diaries ". The Japanese title is " Watashiga kuma ni kireta wake ". (" Why I got mad at the Teddy Bear ") I thought the tittle was very different!!

It was my first time to see Scarlett Johansson's movie. I think she is a good actress. And Nicholas Art was very cute!! I haven't watched foreign movies at the theaters for a while, so it was a great opportunity. I would recommend this movie who are searching for their future dream right now!! Also, I would like to make time to read the novel too.

† Happy Sunday †

Today, I went to Yurakucho to see "Yougisha X no Kenshin" with one of my best friends who was a classmate at high school. We live close, so we always meet during the long holidays or whenever we are free. We usually go to Ginza, Tokyo or Yurakucho to have lunch and shop.

Before the movie, we had lunch at a restaurant which serves various kinds of pasta. It was my first time to go to that restaurant but the pasta they served was very delicious.

The movie we saw is based on a very popular drama in Japan called "Galileo". The drama which was broadcasted last year was a smash hit and it became on screen. The original of these series is a novel which has three volumes written by Keigo Higashino. A genius physicist, Manabu Yukawa and an operative, Kaoru Utsumi solve mysteries scientifically. I was not interested in mysteries until I saw this drama. The drama sure fascinated me a lot!! I like Masaharu Fukuyama, Kou Shibasaki, Miki Maya and other casts of these series. I had been waiting for months to see this movie. The movie was perfect, just as I expected!! It was a sad ending and I cried a little.

After the movie, we went to Yaesu underground shopping center (Tokyo station) and window shopped. There are many shops so you might get wavered what to buy!!

At this shopping center, there is a place called " Tokyo Character Street " which has many shops that sells character goods. In this arcade, there are also television station shops (such as Fuji TV shop, TBS shop, NHK shop etc.) too. We went to TBS shop to buy this!!

It is retort curry and hashed rice!! This is not just an ordinary one, this retort is based and created for the drama called "Ryusei no Kizuna". In the drama, the hero works at a curry restaurant. That is why the retort is curry and hashed rice. Personally, I do not like retort products and I haven't eaten them for years!! I don't know if it's good or not, but I 'll try it and post a comment later on. Well, it's obvious why I bought it even though I don't like retort products. I would like to introduce and talk about the drama later on. But just one thing, did you know that the original of "Ryusei no Kizuna" is also a novel written by Keigo Higashino? Casually, two things are related!!

After we bought the curry and window shopped more, we went to Starbucks to have a coffee break. We chatted so much about the movie, our school, future, worries, that we forgot the time!! Time sure flies when you have fun. We went home after a long chat.

I had a great time today!! I can't wait to see her again on the Christmas holidays!! Until then, I might as well do my studies hard, work at Starbucks as usual and have fun with my friends at AGU. Then time will fly than I expect!!
