3 weeks left!

I CAN ALMOST TASTE JAPAN. it might be the furikake and rice i'm eating, but who really knows.

just made strawberry shortcake as a going away cake for the salon, and spent about $150 on a winter coat (suitable for ski lodge too!), socks, tights, earrings, and lots of deodorant/toothpaste/eyeliner, etc. people tell me i'll be able to find it there, but um, it's gonna be hella expensive, so i'll just stock up in america.

in other news: SKYDIVING. falling out of a plane is the BEST THING EVER, but passing out and going face first into the ground because the parachute's harness was too tight and my blood circulation got cut off...yeah, not so much. at least i was awake for most of it, and got to see all the way out to the appalachian mountains~

also, i miss earlham like woah, and seeing all the pictures on facebook from my friends who are already back there just makes me more nostalgic <3

i want just one more saga dinner and movie night at japan house (brownies and possibly alcohol included) with my group of friends there :D

dear god

i'm pretty sure it's one of my worst nightmares to be petsitting and have a dying dog on my hands. welcome to the suck.
luckily i was able to call out of work to take stella to the vet (though i'm pretty sure i scared the hell out of otha when he got on the phone to me sobbing and having a huge breakdown), and they said she's okay medically, but that she's super old and her time has been coming for a while.

UGH = $200 vet bill that i felt obligated to pay because i'm a freak for flipping out like that and don't wanna make the owners pay a shit ton just because i had no idea what to do other than take stella to an emergency vet clinic.

i also dropped my laptop on top on my face last night. battle scar? yes.

thus, this is my depressed post of the day. needless to say, i drove to the gas station and bought myself 5 packs of candy/chips. shit.
