I really need to start doing what needs to get done.

[forever_wandering]

Already, we're hitting the second week of February. Wow.  
I was pretty lazy all this week, even though I had tons of things to do, so this week is going to be insanely busy. I'll need to somehow manage to get all of this weeks AND last weeks things done....  I WILL NEVER BE LAZY AGAIN

My best friend from forever ago will be here in three weeks. As soon as I get everything that needs to get done, done, I'll need to start working on some kind of plan. I have no idea where to take her for some good sight-seeing. I've never been a tour-guide...and I've always kept away from major tourist spots...  

On that same note,
I spoke to Kazu today, and it seems like I'm in charge of planning the events of our next trip as well. I had simply planned on driving around until we found something we wanted to check out but....I don't think that's gonna fly. It's going to be tough. I'm easy to entertain. Kazu's easy to entertain...but I don't know his friend Shouji too well....so I'm not sure where he would like to go... 

MAYBE IF I BUY A CUTE TOUR-GUIDE OUTFIT, I'LL FEEL MORE MOTIVATED. 

I went to the volunteer center and got some materials to study for the JLPT exam, even though I don't really know if I'll actually take it yet. I keep saying I will, since everyone keeps bugging me to, then we end up forgetting about it to go traveling or something... 
Anyway! I got a 77 on the first half that I completed...and I can live with that because the book is for the 2級. 77 on the first half of the 2級 isn't bad for me, since up until now I didn't even have confidence I could pass the 4級.

I really want to try and take some kind of formal Japanese class.... but I'm not sure if I have the time. I should just force all my guys to put on suits and play teacher for me =D ...but then I'd learn all this weird Japanese like I've been doing, instead of pretty, formal Japanese.

Good luck with your exams =)!!

Thanks a lot!

Sounds hectic. Don't over-think too much about the places you want to show them. O: I bet they'll enjoy whatever you have planned.

That's what my friend who is coming told me. She said that as long as we got to hang out together, it would be fine.

The two boys on the other hand are harder to please. At least I have until August to decide where we'll go and what we'll do!

Well if it helps with the planning you could pitch them ideas beforehand and see what they like from their feedback. O:

Never got a chance to comment on your last post but that "I want a rich white girl to marry" guy was hilarious to read about.

I agree with the above though, try not to stress too much and take your friends to places you like around you I'm not a tourist spot person either so even when I took boyfriend down to Nagoya with me to meet friends, I just took him to the couple of shopping areas I liked to walk around when I lived there. I mean we did go to the castle, but that was the only tourist thing we did. And even that was, quickly run through castle - walk slowly around garden.

My friend that I haven't seen in years seems to be pretty much up for anything, so I feel a little more at ease about her visit. I guess I can take her to the tourist center when she comes and let her pick.

Kaz and his friend however, are really in to the whole tourist thing. Figuring out what to do might be a little harder. We'll be going in August, when the weather is murder, so I'm trying to think of cooler places.

Wait, are you coming here to Japan or going somewhere else? (You're in Florida now right?)

[kurikuribebi]

Both.
My friend that is coming to visit will be coming to visit me while I am in Florida.

By the time Kaz, his friend and I go on Vacation, I will be back in Japan.

laziness is a B*tch XD i cant get her of my back =/

good luck with your tour i think going to new places with good friends is super fun n_n so i think anywhere you go will be fun

ps what is JLPT 0_0?? but good luck with it, sounds important XD

[kurikuribebi]

The JLPT is a language proficiency test. I've been saying for years that I'm gonna take it but I never do. This year, my friends are really on my ass about it though.


Yeah, traveling with friends IS always fun, as long as everyone can enjoy everything. My friend's friend is kind of different from me so I'm worried he and I are going to clash.

Don't write that it's already the 2nd week of February!!! ;__;
It reminds me of the fact that I'll have to move in 3 weeks and that there are still soooooooooooooooooooooooo many things that I need to do!!! So, I hear you!!!!

*lol* I'm sure you'll be a good tour guide! ^-^

Oh ... now I feel really bad. I haven't studied any Japanese in over a year ... I passed N2, but I want to pass N1. Just no time at all to study. Oh well :/
