Hey Scholar :)
How's it going?

scholar 01-04-2012 12:04 PM

Oh, it's going. We had to put our youngest cat to sleep on Christmas Eve because his kidneys failed, probably due to antifreeze poisoning, and by "we" I mean "my husband had to deal with all of this because I live on the opposite side of the world, so my cat died on Christmas Day for me..." and that was so totally not fun.

But then a week later I spent New Years' Eve at a temple in Kyoto with 10,000 other people waiting to do their "first prayer" of the year, and that was pretty amazing, peculiar, and astonishing. The friend I was with pulled a "bad luck" fortune twice, so he was pretty nervous when we finally parted at about 1:30 in the morning. Oh, and someone drunk puked on the train I took back home, but not, fortunately, on me. XD

How're you?

Imagination 01-04-2012 12:11 PM

Other then the cat part that sounds amazing. I've always wanted to go and visit Kyoto, Tokyo and a few other towns in Japan that I can't think of right now.

I'm doing good though, about to go across the street and get some food for breakfast at the gas station~be back in like 15.

scholar 01-04-2012 12:18 PM

Well, I'm actually heading to bed myself now. The last few days have been pretty exhausting emotionally, and I want to get up in the morning and go for a leisurely run before dawn. I love running in cold weather!

Antagonist 01-04-2012 12:22 PM

Oh, I'm sorry to hear about your cat. :o

Sounds amazing at Kyoto though! I had a bit of a bad luck streak soon after New Year's as well (kept scraping myself, having a rather disturbing nightmare on the midnight of New Year's, getting my right eye thwacked twice in a row within two days, etc...), but hopefully it won't last an entire year. :sweat:

Have a good night's sleep! :hug: I like jogging occasionally, in cool weather, though it doesn't happen often because of how there's nearly always exhaust fumes everywhere I go. Kinda defeats the purpose of exercising and getting healthier when you're constantly breathing in toxic gas...

Imagination 01-04-2012 12:28 PM

Aw okay Scholar~I just got back. I figured I'd get in the habit of walking, then I'll move up to jogging xD

scholar 01-04-2012 12:29 PM

Turns out I'm still here. I wanted to post in the French langout (I started typing that by accident, but it works pretty well as a short form of "language hangout") and it took forever, so I'm still around. My eyes are starting to droop, though....

Hi, hidan! Yes, one other reason to run before dawn is that there are fewer cars around and the air is clearer.

Antagonist 01-04-2012 12:32 PM

Haha, my eyes have been drooping since noon...drank waaay too much. :lol:
I'm glad I'm more the 'get drunk and fall asleep' type than the 'get drunk and start doing embarrassing things' type. :sweat:

And wow, I'd never be able to get up before dawn, let along go jogging! It's a miracle for me to even function at any time before 7 o'clock, and even that's pushing it a bit. :sweat:

scholar 01-04-2012 12:35 PM

The motivation of not being stared at by people on their way to work is pretty strong for me. :sweat:

Imagination 01-04-2012 12:36 PM

You should take people staring as a compliment to your looks though scholar :D

----------

And~I'm jealous of you. I want to know how to speak japanese :gonk:

Antagonist 01-04-2012 12:42 PM

Ah...yes, the stares. :sweat:

Haha, same here. :XD I don't have much talent in learning languages though, so I doubt I'd ever be able to learn to be able to speak in coherent sentences or be able to understand the spoken and/or written language.

scholar 01-04-2012 12:43 PM

No, people stare at me because I'm an overweight white person jiggling along panting... :sweat:

And it *is* fun learning a language, but it's really hard getting my French back down that I'm pretty good with Japanese!

Okay, my brain is dead. Time to sleep. Goodnight!

Antagonist 01-04-2012 12:46 PM

I think it's mostly the white part. :XD

See you later and have a nice sleep! :)


@Imagi: Yeah, but Mandarin's my mother tongue. :XD

Antagonist 01-04-2012 02:23 PM

Imagination 01-04-2012 02:48 PM

Hey Iku~
Good morning :hug:
Did you sleep well?

Ikuto Akihiko Hasegawa 01-04-2012 02:50 PM

-yawns- Yeah. I hate when I kind of... abruptly wake up, but I don't want to sleep later; so I just get up. xD
Have fun being a night owl?

Antagonist 01-04-2012 02:54 PM
