THe FUnnIST day in a Long Time

Interesting day... NOT! .... Today Nami had made plans to meet up with a couple of her classmates from university whom she hasnt met in two years. I had a funny vibe about the whole thing, but what can i say.... I`m the foriegner here.. So yeah, we woke up and were going to watch a movie and look around the town before we met up with her friends. But as per usual we got too relaxed at home and ended up letting the time slip away.

We rushed to get ready and made our way to town (cant remember the name). We were 20 mins late but her friends were even later. We walked around for a bit by ourselves trying to find a coffee shop (with no luck) we went back, met one of her mates and then looked again (Still with no luck) headed back and met the last one..

Here they are.... Nami on the right, yuka (middle) and Orie. Now you would think that they studied the same subjects as Nami that they could speak some english (all classes were taught in english) but they didnt say one thing!. On top of that all they talked about were their boyfriends, marriage and quitting their jobs. I mean c`mon they`re only 25.. But yeah, i didnt feel shy just extremely unconfortable. I just didnt feel right with them and it showed. Wanna know something else... they are very small eaters and.....THEY DONT DRINK!!.. oh man.. not even one.. So there was no chance alcohol was going to ease the tension.. Anyhoo after a looong 3 hrs, we said our goodbyes and parted ways. Only to meet up again in the train... I am sure they are very cool people but i havent felt that out of place in a long time and didnt help that one of them reminded me of a friends gf....

I decided to reward myself for suviving that tedious experience by eating junk food. And i went nuts!! i got chicken nuggets, piece of deep fried chicken and 3 kinds of potato chips. Then on the way home we walked passed a vending machine and i felt like a coke but thought I`d be good, then re-thought and brought it.. So yeah... Feeling a little better now, but by gosh sitting and trying to listen for three hours without talking takes a lot out of you. So i`m off to hit the hay. Peace yall..
