hello kyoto
March 21st, 2006and so we set off for kyoto. by quite an expensive 2 hour 45 minute shinkansen trip (13,500yen or so). what is there to say? we’re staying at the place i stayed 2 years ago called j-hoppers, which is a kind of up-market guest house. there are about 5 other people sharing this room with us, but they all keep coming and going every couple of minutes so i can’t really get a number in my head…

i kind of planned to go around the city and see some of the temples before we settled down for this night, but once we got our vaios out and started haxing, it was already 9pm ^^;;;;;;; after a few days without some solid computing time, it really does add up. it seems ds finally got around to updating his blog too :p
ramen for dinner, tasty… until i got out the door and realised my tongue was fucking BURNT >< instant thought was get a drink, so a trip to the conbini later i had a mitsuya grape soda. now let me tell you – mitsuya is no ordinary soda… it has about 5x the carbonation factor. this resulted in a sensation that was somewhere between pain and pins and needles in my tongue gg me.

yesterday while on the train, there was this middle aged lady with some kind of mental problem. unfortunately i was sitting right in front of her… she started kicking me and hissing pretty close to my face. my first thought was to tell her to fsck off, but as my vaio was in a very vulnerable location on my lap, i refrained from doing that incase she turned agro on me. someone next to her eventually said to get off the train, so she did. she kept muttering things about her family, and wanting to be taken to the police, and lots of yen and a whole stream of random complaints that made very little sense. i was tired from lack of sleep the night before, so i just 1/2 slept through it ^^;
tomorrow we’re off to nara (assuming i can find the right train to take) to HEADSHOT some deer.
DS needs to get some real headphones stat!
ive told him that many times but he insists ipod headphones are fine -.-
