Revenge of the milk… Ugh…

For dinner, I had my usual natto (fermented soy beans) with green onions, mekabu (seaweed) with ume flavoring, hiyayakko (cold tofu with chopped green onions and bonito flakes), non-homogenized whole milk (half cup), kefir (half cup), and kimchi (Korean fermented cabbage). I’m stuffed now! I also took 3 soft gels of flax seed oil, 1 soft gel of fish oil, and a pill of GNC Triflex.

Now to go take a shower.

With people dying left and right in the book, it’s rather creepy reading it at night. I’m a little scared.

This year was more of the same from last year, except they had pedometer contest and a karaoke contest. The pedometer contest was kinda dumb. They had adult contest and a kiddie contest. The contestants just ran in place as fast as they could. Meh. As for the karaoke contest, they had a panel of 3 judges. I didn’t really stick around to hear what the results were.

I went with my friend Franklin on Saturday. It was more of an accident. I wanted a partner in crime for taking pictures at the butcher shop. On our way there, I passed by Mitsuwa and saw the summer festival stuff. I wussed out on taking pictures at the butcher shop. Instead, I bought 2 bottles of German beer and a bag of potato chips. Oh well. At the natsu matsuri I ate an okonomiyaki. It was okay. Better tasting than the one Gaja made at the Bridge USA natsu matsuri about two weeks back. Definitely not as good as the ones I can make at home.

On Sunday, I went with my mom. She wanted to go. I had a soft cream while my mom had a matcha azuki shaved ice. Too bad my soft cream was vanilla and not green tea flavored, that would have been yummy. :9 Before we left, I bought some matcha iced tea for 2 for $3. Cheap! On our way back to the car, I saw an incredible sunset and I just had to take pictures of it. Unfortunately, the pictures didn’t turn out too well. (Wrong setting! Gah!)

On Saturday night when I got home, I saw that there was a bunch of film equipment in front of my neighbor’s house. My mom thought that they were moving, but I said nope, it’s film equipment. I didn’t want to go up and ask so instead, I secretly took pictures of them from my mom’s bedroom window. Kekeke, I feel like such a stalker! XD

I bought two domain names. One is erikanarimatsu.com and the other… gameindustrygeeks.com. My friend Ardith gave me an idea about a web comic about me and dave being in the game industry and it kinda fermented in my head to the point where I had to try it out. Yeah, I know I’m stupid and I should have started out on one of those web comic sites, but I didn’t want the domain snatched up because it did turn out to be a good idea. Dave says it should be pessimistic and sarcastic. I’m like, optimistic and happy! With BUNNIES! I’ll just make our characters, like Penny Arcade, or something. >.>;; The chances of both sites failing… pretty good, considering that I’m lazy…. But I promise I’ll try not to be… It’s just… Final Fantasy XI calls….

I haven’t been losing any weight recently. I’ve been stuck at about 149-150 lbs for a few weeks now. I started using a body fat calculator to see if I’m making any progress, I have from the beginning, but for the past week, I’ve been kinda stuck! It might be the chocolate. >.<; Darn it!!

Watched Harry Potter in IMAX today with Dave. I enjoyed the movie very much. It went by quickly. I didn’t realize the movie was in 3D until we walked in and they were passing out 3D glasses in front of the theater. Most of the movie was in 2D, with the very last battle in 3D. It was pretty interesting and weird to look at it in 3D…. Three very cheesy green eye glass icons appeared at the bottom of the screen when everyone was supposed to put on their glasses. The entire audience giggled. Dave didn’t know that the the sunglasses used to view 3D movies are polarized. Now he knows, and knowing is half the battle! …

Laura tried to take care of Peter and Rex for 1 month, but she couldn’t handle it. She has to take care of highly distraught clients and then to come home to emotionally distraught rabbits was too much for her. I want them. I don’t want to give up on them. I think they’d be lovely house rabbits. My mom doesn’t want me to keep them unfortunately. *cry* I want these rabbits!
