Notes from 61455
So last Friday night, I was looking through Nagoya JET Sarah's recent wedding photos and I was bawling like a baby. True, it was in part due to the fact that everyone looked amazing and Sydney Harbour is possibly one of the best places to have an outdoor wedding, but I was mainly crying because it made me miss her and her husband Ian incredibly. They were the two who always stopped me mid-sentence when I'd start to put myself down and say things like, "We'll not have any of that. You're a lovely girl and someone will recognize that someday." And if ever I needed someone to tell me that, I needed it Friday.
After looking through Sarah's photos, I happened to check in on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
aichijet and her page said she was spending the weekend in Iowa visiting her family. I wrote on her wall something saying, "Just knowing you're a little closer to me makes me happy." To my surprise, she texted me and said, "Hey, why not drive over here Sunday morning for some shopping and lunch?" So I did just that! :D We went to the same mall she took me to in October and had Starbuck's and did some shopping before going to Chili's for lunch. It was short -- only about 3 hours -- but it was exactly what I needed. The drive cleared my head and aichijet's company was as pleasant as usual. I like knowing that there are some people in the world that I don't have to explain myself to or worry that they're misunderstanding me. And she brought up a good point: Despite thinking that America is this huge expanse of land dividing friends forever, those obstacles can be overcome.
The longer I live, the more I realize anything can be accomplished.
While wandering through the mall, I found the shoes I'd been looking for since Christmas!! Incidentally, I was withaichijet the last time I bought my adidas sneakers in Nagoya, and when I was with her again, I managed to finally find a pair I like. She must be lucky! XD I didn't buy them because I'm POOR and they're $70, but that particular store is also in my hometown and they sell shoes online, so maybe I can pick up a pair next month.
Seriously. Tell me these shoes aren't the cutest thing ever. I DARE YOU.
Cohort members still make me want to throw myself off of something tall, but there's only 3 more weeks left then summer comes.
Btw, Nagoya Mew Mew: 5, Arashi Concert Jimusho: 0.
I'm seriously thinking my FC number is made of nothing but win. *I* don't get to go, but I've been told that goods will be bought if I supply the funding. 先輩、頼みます！m-_-m My Time Con DVD is in and at the post office right now, but I have to figure out the best way to get it. If I drive there tomorrow morning when they open, I'm afraid the postman will have already left and tried to deliver it to me again. I can go tomorrow afternoon after 3:30pm but he may not be back by then either. And if I don't get it then, I think I'd have to wait till possibly Saturday. ;_; That is entirely too long to be without concert footage.
Oh, I've received gifts from various flist members in the past few weeks and so I think I'll round them all up and take pictures to show off my new things. (tipsytoe, I got the cute little coin purse and the picture of Inocchi and Sakamoto! Thank you!!!♥♥♥) I promise when I get some free time I'll share with you all what my lovely friends have sent me. ^_^
But for now, bedtime.

We all need that, don't we? ^^
You still have FC number eh. So cool! XD I want one too. :P
Ah, and I was going to send you a PM, but since I'm commenting here anyway... You said you have the 47 con? Could I trouble you to upload it to MU? ^^;;
I found mofile links for it but it seems to be really slow. If you can't, it's okay - I'll try the mofile links again then :)

yes, cutest shoes ever, i agree! XD
!!! ok, you can shoot me for asking this, but by any chance did you hit tokyo or fukuoka? if yes, and if you haven't already promised them to other people, would you consider selling one to me? i'll hand-deliver any con goods you want to your door ;D
no subject
Haha, I wouldn't shoot you! You're talking to the girl who told a total stranger (
Btw, could I be on your list of people who get to read about your adventures in Japan?? I need to live through others! XD
no subject
really?! you said that? LOL!! it's ok, i didn't have a solid plan to go until just recently and it would've been too late to ballot by then *pets* please no worries!
of course you're already on my list! XDDD you're my friend, right? unless you thought it was some special list or something lol don't worry you'd be included either way ;D i'll try to have an exciting adventure for you!

where's home? (if you don't mind me asking) lol, i hope you're not expecting too much since i don't think wisconsin is THAT exciting... unless you like beer and cheese curds XDDD
well, i look forward to the possibility of meeting up with another arashi!fan any day!! <3333
no subject
All my friend from Wisconsin talks about is beer and cheese... and hunting and country music. I'm starting to wonder how we even became friends. ?_?
no subject
you get the idea.
And you are spreading more love this year I see. JIMUSHO LOVES ROBIN.
no subject
I really don't think the jimusho loves me, I think they just have a thing for my number. Of course if my number keeps hitting, it WON'T hit at the time I can actually go back. That will be my luck. I can just see it now. -_-*
no subject
I guess you hit Tokyo Dome with your number? XD
no subject
Actually, my friend hit for Osaka, and had I known that some of my flist wanted to go this summer, I would've put you all in contact with her in case she was willing to ballot for extra tickets. I read about the experience you're having with your friend in Japan, and if you need any info about the ballot system, maybe I can help?

And those shoes! Hope you can get them sometime soon; they really do look nifty. :)
