I am actually really tired right now but I have to finish this blog because I hadn't updated in a while (hehe... sorry ^^;;).

I've just been really really busy lately.

And I know I say that a lot, but I mean, this past week had been hectic.

Not only was my planner filled with stuff for work (practice, going on radio shows, recording the demo (really rough version) of a song I had been writing recently, etc. etc...)...

but I had realized that I also became a part time tour guide.

LOL. Actually, a bunch of my friends had been coming to Tokyo recently--and will be for the rest of this month. So juggling work, packing (because I am leaving Japan :( ;_; actually I haven't started packing yet so I guess it's more like "planning"), and being a tour guide... I literally have no time left to be my usual nerdy self and sit in front of the computer to just relax. Can't complain, though. I missed my friends so much!!! It was great to finally see some of them.

(non sequitur: you know, i just learned this a couple of months ago as i was writing my personal statement to transfer schools, but did you know that you are only supposed to put one space after a period/exclamation mark/colon/etc. when the text is in a variable width font? (i think.) so unless you are using font type courier new, there should only be one space after your end-sentence punctuation(s)! but i am so used to typing two spaces after each sentence that it's really hard to change the habit... arg...

not that it actually shows up, because i think html gets rid of that extra space automatically anyway. not sure.

and omg. i speak english like i speak japanese sometimes now. x_x the sentence above perfectly demonstrated that. i'd been in asia for too long, lol. now i am EVEN MORE fobby than i was before! great. not that that's really a bad thing, i guess. titles are titles. :) )

Anyway.

My wikipedia page doesn't mention this, but...

I am athletically challenged. (to put it in the nicest and most politically correct way possible)

However, despite being so athletically challenged, I did a lot of sports lately.

Examples:

Bowling.

Right: Manager (Lee).

First score: 29. Who gets a 29?! >.<

At least I didn't fail *that* miserably the second time.

Ultimate Frisbee.

Did you guys know that I actually went to a math camp (called PROMYS)? Yeah, I am *that* nerdy. Playing ultimate frisbee reminds me of math camp. Because that was the sport PROMYS played against RSI (Science/math summer camp at M.I.T.). So from then on, I recognized ultimate frisbee as the "nerd sport."

And as nerdy as I am, I was really bad at ultimate frisbee, too.

I look so serious here! LOL.

Golf.

Golf is actually pretty fun. Actually, bowling is fun as well. Frisbee is... well, we were in the park, and I have OCD when it comes to the cleanliness of my hands. But then again... not like the bowling balls were any cleaner. :P

Okay, so I am bad at sports, but I am good at...

hmm...

um...

eating!

(Okay that was a weird way to change the topic to what I wanna talk about next, but anyway.)

My Japanese teacher from Cornell came back to Japan for vacation, and I had dinner with her.

Isn't she cute?!

I realized after looking at these photos, she looks younger than me. >.<; I gotta ask her for her secret!
