ひさしぶり、日本語の日記を書いたね〜　わたしは韓国で書きたかったけど、韓国のパソコンがあまり分かりませんでした。韓国は楽しかったけど、かえったら、よかった。東京はどんどんうちになります。日本の生活がなれた。時々寂しいですけど、寂しくない時は本当に楽しいです。新しい人に会いたい。日本人にあまり会いませんでした。

今日はクロさギThe Movieを見に行きました。山下智久はチョウかっこいいだよ！映画館で一緒に生け花を取った二人に会いました。面白かった。映画で最初の半分が分かりましたけど、最後があまり分かりませんでした。ちょっとつまらない。それも、ラブストリがあまりなかった。

今日から日本語の日記を書く事にしています。今までに、私は怠け者ですけど、よくなりたいです！実は、私は日本語が上手になりたいです。度してこの春休み私は毎日毎日ドラマを見ましたか？どして日本語を勉強しませんでしたか。皆ちゃん、お願いがある〜間違う事があったら、教えてください。
今日は、国分寺で、SMAPの新しいシングル「そのまま」を買いました。私の最初のSMAP CDです。イエイ！！！＾＿
二週間の後で（I think that's not the best way to say it, "In two weeks")家族が来ます。来る事がほしくないです。母と妹は、初めて、外国旅行しますから、大変と思います。なおまた、その時、忙しいですよ。新しいバイトしたり、友達の結婚式に行ったり、book publishingパーテイに行ったりします。＾
明日は韓国に行くから、今はAlone in Loveという韓国のドラマを見ます。悲しいと思います。男１と女１は友達ですけど、前に、結婚していました。しかし、結婚していた時、赤ちゃんが生まれたけど、すぐに死んだ。男１と女１は悲しくなって、離婚する事にしました。でも、後で、二人はいつも会いました。もう友達でした。
ではね〜

Last Friday, I went to Saeki to do my normal grocery shopping. As I was leaving, a man asked me if I was from Tsuda, and then told me he was teaching at Tsuda. He's from Washington. It was a completely friendly little conversation, and I was kind of amused by it. Today, I got an email from the Kokusai Center. They said that the professor had come to them just a bit ago and said he was worried he may have frightened me. It was all so cute. They asked me to respond and let me know how I had felt, and honestly, it was all ok. I'm actually pretty good at reading situations, and I'm always overly cautious around people I don't know, but I didn't feel awkward at all.

So, I can't remember what the theme song actually is, but I've decided it was all wrong. The most perfect theme song for プロポーズ大作戦already exists, so they never needed a new song. "I ran" by Flock of Seagauls, or whatever the song and band are called. But you know the song: and I raaaaaaan . . . I ran so far away. I ran. I ran all night and day.

Because, really, 山ピーruns a lot. But, anyway, the special is on March 25, and I'm super excited!!!!

I must do laundry.

My opinions often don't hold with socially accepted views. For instance, I approve hole heartedly with gossiping and talking about people. And then, people say to me . . . but don't you feel bad when people talk about you, and really, I don't. As Oscar Wilde said, “The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about.” I think I'd be terribly depressed to learn one day that people don't talk about me.

I find it particularly fun when I find out what people were saying about me. For instance, in high school, there were these two guys that I often speculated about. It had nothing to do with a crush. I just found something interesting about them. So now, one of my best friends is friends with one of them, and it seems they used to talk about me. They used to speculate that I liked dragons. and fantasy. Dragons and princesses. I don't know, it's a bit strange. But it's nice to know, that people were talking about me.

Sometimes my stupidity literally astounds me, and I know I'll be learning something new everyday, because I have a lot to learn. For instance, today, while pasting my プリクラinto the lovely ギギbook I bought at LaQua, I realized that my picture was coming apart. Oh, crap I thought. I'll have to glue the back onto the front. And then, I noticed it was coming off quite nicely. What's this? A sticker? So, I spent the next half hour peeling the stickers I had glued into the book off of the page so that I could reattach with the sticker adhesive.

So, I ran into Bi-chan in the hall, and she was with her mother. I actually introduced myself in Japanese, and then Bi-chan was like . . . uh, Olivia, my mother doesn't understand Japanese. 英語で and then I remembered, oh yes, how silly of me.

In other news, my uncle said that he thinks the reason Japanese people stare at me is because I look like a character from a shojo manga. He had just seen a documentary on them the other day. He told me to have a Japanese friend show me a shojo manga if I'd never seen one. . . oh, how behind on the times.

Yesterday we went to karaoke, and it was fun as always. As our last song, we chose to sing JOY by YUKI. It's a good thing we've sung that song many times, because it turned out to be extreme karaoke. The computer animated images showed the lyrics in strange patterns sometimes falling from the sky in snow flakes or on walking robots. It was really interesting to say the least.

So, I was in Donkey today thinking to myself, you know what would be great: a liter carton of Lipton Milk Tea, because I'm sick of buying so many 500ml ones. And then, I saw it, the liter bottle. I was so happy!

Minji ne-chan and Gahee-chan have left. Tomorrow, Amy will follow. Don't leave. Come back! I'm really going to miss everyone.
