First of all, if anybody wants a sweet icon for their posts, lemme know and I'll make you one. That way it's easier to tell who's writing right off the bat (I'm too lazy to scroll all the way down). Or if you think mine sucks you can make your own! I might change the size, it doesn't seem to be letting the text wrap very nicely.
Anyway, I was reminded that the Enoki Women's Dorm might be the one run by nuns... and it is! And it has a curfew! And it's closed on holidays! All of these things would probably = suck. Plus it's way more expensive than the DK House. Hopefully my application materials will get here soon and I can see what my options are... DK House is lookin' miiiighty fine. My mom's a super chef too, so I'd be really excited to harness the power of my cooking genes and learn to cook for reals in Japan.
I already asked Mia this one, but what are you all doing on your three month winter vacation? I'm gonna look for a job as soon as I get home and make some serious Japan money. And study Japanese I suppose.
Now I've almost run myself out of time to run to O'Hill for some Carved Ham and Macaroni & Cheese (not sarcastic, actually one of my very favorite O'Meals, if you will). But before I go, lemme throw a little math* at you:
This blog = my favorite distraction
Talk to you all later,
Natalie
*Natalie got a C- in Calc 131. Any supposed "math" may be nothing more than two terms with an equals sign between them. Don't be deceived.

ack! oh no! nuns!
i hope you don't get stuck there, that seems like a most unwelcome/stifling balloon o' no fun.
smexy icon! i wants me one. but... all my pictures are obscenely un-me or non-plushie me. haha. sigh. i really need finals week to be over.
by the way, when on earth are the rest of us supposed to find out about housing? i feel very out of the loop.
haha... enoki...kinoko...mushrooms... ^^
random, i know.
i'm going to China during the 3 month break, but first i'm going to take my mcat. i also want to see the world a bunches before i have to settle into being an adult so i definitely want to go to Europe if possible, don't know how that's going to work out yet tho. but yeah, see the world, live it up before responsibilities, and increase my view of the world = pre-Japan plans
wheee
Oh my goodnezz! I like the icon!! I wants me one too, so do I need to send you a picture of me?
Your post and last comment are hilarious. Hey! I pulled an all-nighter for the JPTR paper too, it took me forever only because I kept dicking around with my friends.
Maybe the nuns will be more lenient towards foreigners...?
All I have left are two finals now too, Saturday night and Tuesday morning. Do you guys want to do Chipotle/Peace Frogs like...Friday or Monday?
I am actually going to visit Japan and Korea this winter break (crazy, I know...) and I get back Jan. 14th. From then til mid/late-March I plan on working. I am currently looking into tutoring at C2 Educational Centers and getting temp work; both were recommendations from friends as decent pay for easy work. My mom also expressed interest in doing a family spring break trip to the west coast. I also plan on visiting good ol' Cville on a few occasions before leaving forealz.
Can't believe I will be out of here in 6 days...
Yah, anybody who wants an icon, send me a pic =) Teresa, it doesn't have to be a pic of you! it could be anything, just so I can put your name on it =D
I'm good for our Chipotle meet-up on Sunday or Monday. Tomorrow might work too if nobody ends up being available to study Japanese then.
So I definitely love the Engrish train wreck that is the DK site. Here's a few of my favorites:
-When you feel lonely, come to the lobby and dining! Friends are there for you!
If you need your own space, large-sized private room can provide a quiet your own time!
-Walking, jogging area is for those who want to exercise in the nature!
-Enjoy the Japanese season that cherry brossom for spring, many flowers and plants will release your stress!
-About the proposals such as the disclosure of the personal information, a correction, the use stop, please contact it to this place.
Now it's somebody else's turn to distract me! Greg's computer has apparently melted though...
Yeah, stupid computer. But I guess that it's good academically for you all.
Monday is cool with me.
I'll be substitute teaching at home, and also coming back to school 3/7 days a week to rehearse for the Jazz Ensemble's Feb. 28th concert, woohoo!
Meteor Shower tonight, late!!! It's gonna be fantastic.
ALSO Jennifer, you failed to mention that you'll be coming to my house to play ROCK BAND. Jeez.
Here's my schedule for now:
2am-??? Meteor Shower
9am-??? Theory III Exam
???-??? Musicianship Exam Cram
1:30pm Musicianship Exam
2:30pm Bus driving
WHEN AM I GOING TO SLEEP!?!?!?!? Good LORD.
Hi Mia!
Y'all best holla at that Japanese party e-mail less you not come less you're not COOL... and stuff. Or you just want to make me cry, iuno.
It's really awful that I have to hang out in Clemons to use the computer, especially when I usually actually wake myself up by checking my e-mail in the morning. Blarrrrrg.
Geez. I'm sorry Gregory. Yes, add that to my plans all. I will be going to Greg's house to play ROCK BAND. hollerrrr.
Ok, I know I work Monday 12-4, I think that's it, and I'll be studying Japanese history, but if we do an evening thing, that might work for me? When does Peace Frogs close? i guess I can look it up...
Damn, I love the Engrish. Makes me all the more excited for Donkey Kong, cuz hey, friends are there for you, and so are cherry brossoms apparently!
And best of luck Gregory. Tests galore and driving a bus afterwards? When ARE you going to sleep forilly rilly? I hope not while you drive...
*knock on wood*
i have a study session organized for that grueling hiea test on monday around noonish. it's supposed to run as late as it will and because i was the one who set it up, i feel compelled to fulfill my responsibilities.
sunday is looking might purty for a day trip to chipotle with a pit stop at the frog zone.
hmmmm... i have a picture of tofu because i'd like to be a tofu block one day. especially if i get to be as cute as the tofu i want to be.
4 cups of coffee + 4 am wake up call + chem441 final = giggly, hyperactive, super silly TERESA bomb
good luck on all your tests greg. your day seems uber isogashiii.
can't wait for that JAPN301 final.... -_-"
btw, does anybody understand that e-mail from chris? what is up with that whole visa thing huh?
Oh Teresa....
Okay, actually Sunday would work better for me because of work and that lovely HIEA study session of Teresa's on Monday. Peace Frogs is open 12-5 Sunday.
So we should decide. And then write a new post with the plans so others (if they even read this >O! ) don't have to search through all the comments and stuff.
Good luck with 301 studying guys...maybe I'll see you if I stop by Clemons...I can't believe we have assignments due...
