holy update batman...
So, last weekend I went to Osaka to the aquarium which is one of the largest, and also happens to be next to one of the largest Ferris Wheels in the world as well. Yay for whale sharks, penguins, and wanking otters!
At first you see the otter wanking it and you feel bad for his jiblets... then you just kind of feel bad for the otter...
After said expedition we headed to a McDonald's (I know I know shutup you don't know what it's like) for some cheap food, and sat with some friends and chatted. At this time, Eric tried to convince Kelly to go to Tokyo with them. It didn't take too much convincing but she eventually agreed that it would be the worst thing should could possibly do, so why the hell not.
I soon followed...
Off we went to Tokyo. After a 2 hour power nap of power naps, I found my second wind with some to spare. We arrived around 10 on Friday night, checked into our hostile, and promptly went on our way to Shibuya.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Shibuya_crossing_2.jpg
Shibuya is probably one of the most massive places I've ever been too. I've never been to New York ( never really been inclined to go) but I'm fairly certain that this would kick it's ass. I don't even know why cars try and drive through there. It's damn near impossible.
So after arriving, we headed on our merry way through some back streets, stopping at just about every Combini we could find for a beer. They never really last very long. Finally, we came across a street with a few clubs lined up, we picked on for coming back up, and proceded with getting as intoxicated as you possibly could. Around midnight thirty or so, we head into the club. It was called Club Atom and was a four story bonanza. The first floor was just lockers and such. The second floor was J-pop ( which is fucking awesome in a club setting. Really, you'd be surprised.), the third was techno and dance, and the fourth was hip hop and such. We bounced between floors all night, until Kelly (as always) managed to meet a few people on the hip hop floor which we joined. It was two japanese guys and these girls who I later found out were Korean. We danced and danced and drank and drank until the club closed at 5 A.M. and we had to leave...
we weren't done...
The drunk ass japanese guy suggests that we go to an all you can drink two hour karaoke place, which in our state seemed like the greatest idea ever.
We drank and sang. I talked with this Korean girl who was just slaughtering the Japanese language. I mean, I'm no expert by any means, but being that what I am learning I'm getting through schooling as opposed to just learning ( which isn't always bad) you can hear all the grammatical errors. Makes me think that being Chris must be shitty, because he would be flipping a nut (you grammatically correct bastard). Around 9 am or so we returned to our hostile and slept until 4 PM. At which point we got up, went shopping in Harajuku ( you know, the place where Gwen Stefani gets those Japanese girls she uses as accessories), and then did it all over again.
We also stopped in Shinjuku by a gay bar being that Matty Kupa is our resident gay dude. A gent at that. He is a contender for guys I would go gay for. I've never been hit on in spanish by a guy before, but now I can check that off my list. It's amazing how clique-y the whole shinjuku gay scene is. You can tell the foreigners who can speak japanese because they are only talking to japanese people and they give you this horrible look like you're diseased and not worth their time. Artsy fucks.
After that, same club, dancing, shananigans.
We then returned to Hikone and I took the next two days to recover. It was amazing.
Now however, my sense of adventure is off. I need sleep.
Happy thanksgivings. enjoy the turkey!

so, i saw the first cut of the summer film today. well, it's already been through several revisions. but this was the first public screening.
i will say, some things turned out really well. some did not. i'm glad to see that it came together okay, at least. i would have been pissed if it sucked, and surprised if it was out of this world. i still think some of the big problems with the story are in the script itself, and are therefore beyond fixing at this point. i also think that cleaning up the audio will do wonders. and that is going to be a formidable task. i'm just wondering if my class next semester is going to have to do all that. it would be interesting. then i'd have my hands on it during two phases of the process, instead of just one. that would be weird.
other than that, just business as usual. falling steadily farther behind in all of the important classes, with the one class that i'm doing best in the only class i'm actually making headway on.
it'll all come together in the end. i just hope the collision isn't too catastrophic for me to keep it together.
and in the meantime, just keep plugging away at it, little by little. but i am also running out of time, which means a step up in pace is in order.

So yeah... I've got some time so I guess I'm about ready to update you guys.
Been pretty stressful here, as far as classes go. But I've managed to maintain an A- so I'm alright in that department. Plus I got an 88 on the last test with a class average of 62. My theory is that someone just didn't show up, regardless...
I really need to take some pictures of where I am at. I noticed that all my pictures are of me drinking. Not to say that I'm not drinking a lot, a problem I need to find a solution for desperately, but I'm not JUST drinking. I'm doing a lot of things recently. I guess the problem is that I have a hard time taking pictures of anything interesting because I feel like such a tourist. I will do a lot of things here because I don't really care what the people think of me, and it gets me somewhere usually. For some reason, though, I can't seem to take pictures. Soon enough I will get some real good ones.
Speaking of drinking, this weekend is sure to be packed to the brim of fun. starting tomorrow morning I'm going to some elementary school to play games with kids. It's mandatory, which kind of pisses me off. I've already volunteered to do a few of these kinds of things and I'd rather just sleep in, but you know, I guess I gotta do what I gotta do.
So after waking up at around 8 and getting back at around 12, I have 2 hours or less to just chill out for awhile, before I have to bike to the train station to catch a train to Kyoto. Luckily they are paying for the ticket for me. By them, I mean some Women's College of some sort or another. They are loaded, and have decided to pay for a few of us to take a train and a taxi (keep in mind that a taxi is about 2 dollars per foot, fucking expensive) to the school, and then for the ride back. I'm not actually taking the train back though...
Afterwards, Nate, Nick, and I are going to chill in Kyoto and see what happens for awhile. They claimed that the event won't end until 8, and I'm still not sure exactly what we are doing there. I think we are just trying to help them with their english or something, who knows.
So I imagine we'll eat some food, get some liquor, do some shopping or something, and maybe buy a burger and McDonalds so we can take a nap. Yes you just read that correctly.
Around 10-10:30 we are meeting up with Kelly, Yui, Shige, Adam, Megumi, and maybe one of her friends, at which point we will consume endless amounts of alcohol and then attempt to do some clubbing of some sort. This will last, I'm assuming until about 5 in the morning.
Then, I will be fucked, I'll die on the train home, barely crawl into bed and go into a desperately needed coma until about 2 or 3 that afternoon.
I'll wake up, try to get some homework done, and then head out to the bar to bid my friends farewell as they head off to live in Tokyo.
Sunday, maybe I'll rest, we'll see....
I have a meeting with my teacher now for some conversation time so I will catch you chaps later.
だから、今私は先生と話に行きます。今週の週末にとても急がしくなります根から、らいしゅうぜんぜん話しないと思います。じゃあ、まったね。

ATTENTION!
Yo Internet Peeps:
My radio show is currently up and running. It has been for several weeks.
I'm sick of not having any listeners. The show sucks, because I don't try, because nobody listens, because I didn't advertise very well. Or at all.
So, I will be attempting to change this.
The show is currently: MONDAYS @ 4PM LISTEN HERE!
I'm thinking about doing a couple of themed shows. Maybe one entirely off of youtube, or one entirely of "red hot jazz" (think 1920s).
If you can't listen at that time, I totally understand. Which is why when I reschedule next semester, I will be asking for your input as far as what times on what days are good times to have my show, so I will hopefully have more listeners. Because I want to do something that everyone will enjoy, at a time that is convenient for them.
So, hopefully you can listen at that time for the next couple of months.
More updates will come later.
Peace,
Chris

recollections
::
i feel like i've lost a lot of my pizzazz. (or maybe you spell it pissass. depending on how many laxatives i took that day.) you know? i feel like i used to have more vitality, more everything. not that i was a driven, self-motivated type of person. not that i was spastic or rambunctious. i just feel like i had an undercurrent of motion that just isn't there anymore.
nowadays i let the simplest things prevent me from getting anything done, and i really don't feel the need to try and innovate, or make new things happen. i'm content to attempt, and fail, to merely recreate those which have come before. nothing outstanding. nothing superb. i just settle for okay.
but that really doesn't seem right. i don't want just an okay life. i don't want just okay friends. okay coworkers. okay family. that's not how it works for me. i feel like everything about my life up to this point has been outrageous. and now it's just mellowing out. i guess it's my job to keep it outrageous. but i have a lot of fucking jobs right now, which i guess is what's bogging me down. so, adding the job of unbogging myself to the pile doesn't really work. it'll just exacerbate the problem.
so, i just need to get a few things out of the way, one at a time, so that i have a bit more freedom to have some of that guilt-free, sporadic, funtime. where my energy is put to its most effectively pragmatic use. because clearly i don't get shit done when it comes to actual work. but give me something fun to do, and i'll forget to eat, sleep, and go to the bathroom, i'm so diligent.
and faking myself out to think that the "work" stuff is actually "fun" stuff doesn't cut it. believe me, i've tried. although, i have discovered that some of the "fun" stuff is actually "work". but since it falls under "fun" in my classifications, i can still do that, at least.
i guess we'll make it happen eventually. and until then, i'll just have to tough it out. but i want to be fun and exciting again. none of this boring, grumpy, old man nonsense. that suits me at times. but i don't think this should be one of those times.
i'll get there, and i'll enjoy it. but i'm not there yet. and there's no sense in rushing it.

So, as with most updates as of late, I will preface my story with "interesting weekend".
this one I might actually describe though...
So Friday night was the Halloween party, which I feel like I'm continuously misspelling for some reason or another. A lot of fun, I got all good and sauced up for that because I had announcing to do. It helped with making everyone laugh, but did not help with pronouncing japanese names with horrible handwriting. To be crude, it looks like chicken scratch to me as is, but when someone writes like a 2 year old it makes it even more difficult. Either way, there was no harm done, and the party went off. It ended in a good mood and I continued to move on with my day. So at about 9 PM, me and my group of friends, including Nate, who thinks I'm a racist, Kelly, the blonde cutie who also thinks I am a racist, Yui, Nick, Megan, Adam, and Cooper, headed out to Kyoto for a wonderful night of dancing and getting shit faced! yay!
There were a few things wrong with this for me....
1) I was dehydrated
2) I was way too tired to be pulling an all nighter
3) I didn't eat all day
So, after consuming 3 chu-his, a bottle of vodka, and a half a bottle of wine, my mind was in a state of intoxication that I have never seen before. Granted for the first few hours of dancing my mind worked fine, but after 3 LIT's in the club I started to have crazy ideas. This lead to me leaving my group and wandering around Kyoto at 4:30 in the AM. Not cool at all. Although moderately entertaining.
I'm sorry Chris. I wish you could have been there to see it.
I'm pretty sure I'm an alcoholic...
three cheers?
