A Detailed Account of my Sunday

Hmmm... curious.

Today (or more correctly, yesterday, since it IS already Monday) I had an eat-all-you-can lunch of pizza and pasta at Shakey's. And a dinner of hamburger with rice and a bottomless supply of drinks at Saizeriya. But now, even after stuffing myself with all that, I'm already feeling hungry?!

The human body must really be programmed to beg for nutrition at regular times of the day, and right now my stomach seems to be shouting "Breakfast please!" at me. Ssssshhhh... it's too early for that! And I'm too lazy to prepare munchables right now.

Anyway, today was fun. AGAIN, I woke up too late to attend mass at Yamate. So I just decided to go out and ambush the process people who WERE able to go to mass somewhere. I really wasn't feeling in the mood to spend the whole day alone again, seeing as Saturday already found me staying indoors for the whole day.

So after hanging out a bit near Tsutsumi, that jewelry store on the corner of Motomachi street frequented by Filipinos, I spotted Raymond and Arnel ambling along going someplace. I immediately waved to them to catch their attention.

We decided to head to Yokohama after some talking. Arnel was craving for Shakey's eat-all-you-can lunch (which he had been hankering for since last week), so we obliged and we stuffed ourselves full of all kinds of weird and normal pizza, mojos, salad and pasta. I filled two plates, determined to get the most out of my 997yen lol! But I could barely finish my second plate, so okay, I don't think I was able to cheat Shakey's out of any profits hahaha!

After that, we were off to Sofmap, to look for an X-box. Then to Yodobashi so that Raymond and I could each buy a mouse and a bag for our laptops. Mouse... check! No luck on the bag though. The one I wanted was waaayyy too expensive, so I decided to postpone my dream of bringing my laptop to Starbucks for a while more and not buy a bag just yet.

We couldn't think of anywhere else we wanted to go to, so we headed to YCAT to wait for Bevs and Nolan, who were scheduled to arrive on the morning JAL flight. Luckily, at 5pm they were already there! We split into two taxis to go to Marutani Hotel (which most people think should more aptly be called Marutani Motel hehehe), checked them in, delivered their bags, took a picture, and went out again to grab some dinner. But before that we showed them how to get to the office so they wouldn't get lost in the morning.

Dinner was at Saizeriya. Conversation was mostly about officemates (sorry, details are too... uh... well... basta! can't tell you hehehe), and we had good laughs till around 9pm, at which point we all had to split since Raymond still had to drop by my place to pick up his laptop.

We decided to pay a visit to Teof first before going on to my place, since I needed to ask how to set up the Internet. And sheesh! Found out it was just plug-and-play and the only reason I was having problems was that the server in our apartment building was down when I was desperately trying to connect. Yep.. difficult to deal with a Japanese OS when you can't really understand Japanese.. but well.. I still love my laptop =)

After that Raymond and I went on to my place. I tried again to connect to the Internet and yay!-yippee!-yay!!-yay!! It worked!! I was so happeee!! Hehehe...

So Raymond left with his laptop, and as soon as I closed the door behind him my laptop magnetically pulled me back to the chair in front of it, where I fiddled and clicked away till the batteries ran out. And so I left it recharging, tried to go to sleep but couldn't. And now I'm back on the laptop typing the longest blog entry I've ever typed in my whole blogging history.

And it's almost 4am! Eeep! Have to go to sleep!!
