Under the dog star.

So I got impatient and changed my journal style before I left for Japan instead of when I got there. I've been reading my guidebook to psych myself up and I, at least, can hardly blame me. To make things better I went to Fuji in Haddonfield with my old friend Stacey today--she just got back from Spain on Thursday--and damn it was delicious. I have to go back, it was downright cheap at lunch, $15 for a set meal and red-bean ice cream. Oh, so good. Hooray for set meals. I was supposed to meet kwviola in Philly, but we were fooled by the downpour in the morning into thinking it would rain and rescheduled. I don't mind missing the heat, though.

I saw "The Bourne Ultimatum" twice in the first three days it was out (once with Dad & Spike, the other with my old friend Christy; it was good to see her), and it was really an excellent movie, as I was expecting. I think the moral of the story would be, Don't sell what you have before you know its value (i.e. your soul). Of course, it's a complete fantasy that the CIA is anywhere near as effective as the movies portray it as being, but the reality would not make for very good cinema.

I may go get my new computer tomorrow. Probably. Also passport photos, an international driver's license, and clothes from Express, and maybe a Chinese visa. Oh lord, one month + one day until I leave for one year.

mmmm, red-bean ice cream, that sounds good.

I had green tea and ginger ice cream (separately, though both are wonderful) and mochi 2 weekends ago, and thought of you. I'm excited for you to get over there too!

it was good, it was ice cream and not soft cream, so it had bean chunks in it.

one month to go... :)
