Day 15 - Dinner with demons

I didn't have school or plans today, so I'm not really interesting. I also didn't get around to uploading pics, so there's that, too…


I woke up around 10 today, and spent the time immersing myself in America, watching tv, dicking about on the net. I went down for breakfast around noon, and found out that I'd double booked myself tonight. I was supposed to go to this concert thing with Miri, which was all Hello-kitty themed, and there was going to be a pop-star called ベキー (becky?) there, but tonight was also the welcome dinner for the international students at waseda. I ended up giving Miri my ticket, and letting her take a friend instead. Sucks, but I guess it's okay. She was way more excited about it than I was anyway.






The dinner was beautiful, if rather boring. I got to see a bunch of international (read: not japanese) students acting like assholes. People talked during the speeches, especially near the end, and drank during the toast, not waiting for him to finish. The worst, of course, was that the dinner was buffet-style, and there was almost no semblance of order. People rushed the tables even before the last speaker finished, and just dove over one another to get to the food. It was awful. Not only that, but there were no chairs, so I had to stand for over an hour, either waiting in line, eating, or both.


On the plus side, I did get to see WIF preform again. I'm almost sure now that I'll join them. Just gotta work out a schedule. And that was it. Nothing else interesting today. I felt pretty bad all day, after those 14000 steps yesterday, and was exhausted again by the time I got home.
