i had tenshinmen, (rice with crab omlette, sweet and sour sauce).
coz x3magic said that is his favorite in Bamiyan.
yeah i think tenshinmen is the best! the menu says they are using brazilian chicken and aussie beef. i cant eat import meat very much, coz they dont taste as good as japanese meat. (hehe..)
so its better to order seafood there!

there is a song that repeats in my head nights and days.
It is a tune "reitoo mikan (means a frozen mandarin orange), and i remember the voice of girl was pretty good when it was played loudly in a department store. thats why i cant forget this song even tho the lyrics were soo stupid! wheee(^o^);;;
however, it brings me good old memories of my mother, when we travel long time by trains. she bought frozen mandarin oranges and cartoons for us. it tasted really delicious and cooled down our body temperature. is there anyone who still eat frozen mandarins??

today my bf is scheduled to move in a new apartment.
but he might have to cancel it again bocoz of sickness.
the realtor charged him 40000yen (abt US$350) room cleaning fee, last time when we cancelled moving.
i thought it was rip off. but according to the other realtor, tokyo has become severe and 40000yen seems to be a must, and subracted from the deposit money nowadays for 1 room apartment. (including cleaning fee of the air conditioner 9000yen. ) lol
i miss old landlady who didnt charge me anything, even tho my rabbits destroyed the tatami straw mats terribly. haha~

10 missiles??

today the news reported six missiles were fired by North Korea, and all landed in the Sea of Japan off the coast of Russia's Far East in the morning.
there was a rumour of big eathquake yesterday, so i had that feeling of something coming very soon. but i didnt expect Missiles(^o^);;;
the number of missiles increased to 7 in the noon. and latest one was 10(?) and fired by 8pm.
please stop firing!!!
