Hitori no Hi

its SATURDAY!! and nami`s working. Aki works a normal job so she has weekends off. I still feel a little unconfortable being alone with her so i decided to go out after walking nami to the trainstation. And what does NYck do when hes alone and in the city . . . .?. . . . guesses anyone?. No i wasnt drinking mid day!!! I was playing games. Yes the gamer is BACK and oh how fun that was. ONe on one with the arcade machine blasting away with my trigger happy time crisis finger. I Clocked (fyi clocked= completed the game) time crisis four ( took 40 mins i watched every video segment =) ) then walked to the other side of the trainstation to play games again. This time i played *Vitural cop four* clocked it too in 30 mins although it was much harder without my right hand man. I then remembered this exit of the tratinstation has underground musicans playing/debuting in the weekends.... SO i headed there and Yes there they were.

*ROCHE*
THey were awesome! Jazz style back beat with a pop/soulish singer. WHile they didnt look like stars their music certainly had my head bobbin. I just had to squat down and draw. As usual, lost in my own world i failed to see a FAT drunk man walking towards me. Before i knew it he had sat right next to me, not before bumping into me. I smelt the alcohol and decided it was an accident. besides my style of drawing really isnt that pricise. But then 1 min later he gets up makes a *ARRRGGHH* sound and pours water onto my page. I mean *What the .. . .* that was def no accident. My usual self would have looked up starred at him and cursed him out. But no, i just sat there, calmly got a piece of tissue from my bag and wiped it off and kept drawing. OMG wats happening to me. Must of being the music!!. But as the world works, it rewarded me for my actions by giving me a free cd from the band. STOKED!

I then caught the train back home. I spent the whole train ride trying to give myself the pep talk to syke myself up to order starbucks (Bon jovi also put in their 2 cents). And i finally convinced Nyck to do it. Plus it was hot and a cold drink was needed. SO Nyck rock up, says hi (trying to let them know that i`m not japanese) and heres the conversation:

Waitress: japanese japanese japanese

Me: Holy crap!! umm, sorry pardon. . .

Waitress: (suprised look) eeto, japanese japanese japanese (this time slower)

Me: Ha-i (yes)

Waitress: Hai?

Me: un, coffee frapacino

waitress: KOOHI furapecino desuka?

Me: Hai tall

waitress: Tooru desuka

Me: hai onegashi masu.

The result. . . .

yes after all that effort i got it. Exactly wat i ordered. I then realised (given it was full) that the lady musta said * have you found a seat, as we are very busy or are you taking away*. . Anyhoo i managed to jump on the end of a big desk and there i set up shop. (after all that effort i was determined to kill a few hours at starbucks) so i pulled at my notebook and drawing pad, flipped the ipod to Bon jovi and just Syked out!

THis is one (of 26) pictures that i drew in 3 hrs. No this isnt the best one, but it was the most photogenic. I got a little crazy with the japanese makers and pretty much turned every sketch into a rainbow. Or a mouth fill of different starbursts all mushed into one.

Competition: Tell me what this says and go into the draw to win a unique japanese prize. (man this is one cool concept) note: if the pic is too small right click, save and zoom in. *wink wink*


So yeah, I went home at about 6.30 and seeing as the computer was in Aki`s room. i sumitted myself to 8 episodes of Desprate housewives to pass the time.

Once again 10 olcock rolled up and i met nami and we had japanese food. I took many photos but no stand out dishes so i thought i`d spare you the pix. =)

Well i`m out. Its been quite an exciting day my legs are absolutly shattered (not from the walking but from the squatting while watching music n drawing episode) Peace.
