today is thursday.

i have a holiday from work.

which is A+
but i wish i had slightly more.

recently i have started at 5pm on mondays and tuesdays, because there have been no staff.
and also, it is just me and master, (as opposed to me, master and one other staff member), so the work load is a whole bunch more intense. and it also means i dont get to finish till 2am.
because there is no one else there.


the other days, i start at 6, and finish whenever.
sometimes i can leave early.
and its nice.


i am just trying really hard to save money so that my plan (not mentionable at this stage) can come into effect.
its not going so well.
and walking outside, i feel i must purchase something.
and today i spent 200 dollars i dont have (potentially more! gasp).

although, i did buy some new underwear. which is more than i would pay back home.
as there was no sale.
and i needed a new bra.

the lady measured me, and still brought me the completely wrong sized bra 3 times.
but in the end. i got one that i feel so happy in.
and its pink. and has cute hearts on it.

tehehe.

also made vegetarian burritos today.
it cost me a bomb, due to foreign ingredients.
but oh,
so,
worth it.


it made me miss vege nachos with han. (which was a regular thing back in nz before i left....)

my friend masa, who is from gifu, but lives in nagoya, recently got back from a half year exchange trip to australia.
on saturday, he came to osaka to visit.
it was so good to see him again!!!!!

tomorrow i will meet a girl, who also did the same thing with me last winter at a ski resort. we were in the same prefecture. but never met.
we emailed each other. and complained about how silly things were sometimes.

anyways, tomorrow she will come to osaka!
and i will go to meet her.

what else....
my mum sent my ecezma cream in the post last week. and it still hasnt come.

which is infuriating. because....
my hands are actually in ruins from work.
i cant really do anything.

pick up things, pull up my stockings (which i wear everyday), open cans or things like that.
messaging on my phone hurts too.

which is boooo.


so, hopefully it comes soon.


someone close to me is feeling very down at the moment. how do we think i can cheer this person up?
i think im doing everything i can to be supportive, and a good person.

but i would love to hear what you think could work.....


and in saying that,
i must go.


but more soon
