Cherry Blossom Adventures

Dear Cherry Blossom Advenures readers…

It is hard to believe that a week has passed between posts…..so much has happened, stuff I will eventually blog about I am sure! Apparently this is the month of letters (If you are participating in NABLOPOMO) so I thought it was time I wrote a quick letter to you all!

Lets see. This Friday I finish up work at my current job….after 18 months.

I have already knocked a couple of things off my 101 things in 1001 days list but info on that will also come in another post. I am supposed to do a update at the end of the month and I hope to have at least another couple of things crossed off! Including actually adding a page to my blog with the list!

I am up to N in my encylopedia of me and I am still not sure what I will write about. N is for Names perhaps? Or maybe N for Nancy Drew……

I am spending way to much time on the internet reading blogs, playing around on entrecard and writing emails but not nearly enough time writing on my blog…..It is hard to beleive that after posting for 3 days in a row last week I thought I might be able to do NABLOPOMO this month…..and then a week went by between posts so I guess I am not ready for that yet!

We need to be out of our apartment by April 27th….I have not yet done any packing but I will eventually get to it…I have done some cleaning though and have a man coming to pick up all our books and manga on Monday to take to book off. I have also begun to clean out my closet but it is a bigger job that I first thought! I will also be leaving Japan in just over a month….This is even harder to believe and I know it really hasn`t sunk in.

You know what also hasn`t really sunk in yet? The fact that I am getting married next May (The 9th actually!)….so far I have booked a venue and that is it. I have just kind of given up on doing anything until I get back to Australia! Although Shun and I did go look at engagement rings on the weekend……

I sprained my ankle last week although it is healing ok but still a bit bruised and swollen. Get this I did it by WALKING in my apartment…..yep to the bathroom. I am such a klutz.

I am the heaviest I have ever been and that is depressing…..I know I could start doing something about it now but have decided to start afresh the day I arrive back in Australia! Will be dieting with my mum and exercising with my dad I think! He walks everyday and wants to get a puppy so that will be our motivation. Also want to get a hoop!

I am going to Kobe in a couple of weeks to meet up with Sara which is super exciting and I can not wait! I will also get to go to Nara while I am down that way and that is also awesome since I have always wanted to go!

Oh last week on my week off I went to Disney Sea…another post perhaps?! Photos also? I also did Hanami on Saturday with Shun, Sumi, Junni and James and it was a random day but so much fun! We had no plans when we woke up that morning but the day turned out brilliantly!

I revised my resume for the first time in almost 2 years……I wasn`t even sure if resumes were still done the same way.

I signed up for entrecard….am already slightly addicted although don`t think it does anything for the traffic of my site but have already discovered some other great blogs! Although this isn`t helping my internet addiction at all because it just means I spend more time on the net reading blogs and stuff than I do doing stuff on my own blog or stuff like packing! Or even reading……I feel like I haven`t done nearly enough reading of actual books lately!

Now over to you readers, do you have any questions for me? You can ask me anything and I will try my best to answer! I have seen a couple of bloggers open up comments to their readers asking the same question `Do you have any questions` and it seems like fun. So fire away….

Hope you are all having a good week,

Love Lulu xoxoxoxo

ps: I just read the above…..talk about random. I do believe a letter is incomplete with a post script.

A couple of notes.

Dear two ladies in restaurant,

Next time you sit at a table beside someone and decide to discuss their breasts perhaps at least come up with a codeword…or wait until said person is not sitting next to you and listening to your conversation while they eat their pasta.

I am sorry if you thought it was ok to discuss my breasts…perhaps thinking I did not understand you but let me assure you it is not OK. I did not discuss the fact that you LADY 1 had on the most hideous jacket I have ever seen nor did I tell discuss the fact that you Lady 2 had green hair…Sure in my head I was thinking WHY THE HELL DO YOU HAVE GREEN HAIR but I did not talk about it in front of you. Want to know why? Well firstly I do not know you and secondly well it would just be plain rude.

I hope that you both think about this in the future…

Lulu

Dear kind man on train,

Thank you for picking up my book this morning when I fell asleep and dropped it on the floor…and I think into your bag. I do apoligise but getting up at 7:15 really took it out of me and I am not used to travelling from Chiba to Tokyo…that extra distance is not fun.

I appreciate the fact that you also just picked it up, and placed it on my lap. I know you were not trying to touch me up and really were just doing a kind deed.

I am sorry I woke up suddenly as you did it and scared the hell out of you…Please do not think that the look I gave you was one of contempt…I was slightly shocked but once I figured out what happened was really grateful.

I know I said thank you at the time but wish to say it again now.

Thanks, Lulu

I was going to post today about otherstuff but it is after midnight and well I just can not be bothered…Might do a random post tomorrow though with all sort of stuff including the fact that I think I am in love with Frances Whiting and want to be her…..mainly cos she writes well, is hilarious and is from Brisbane! Oh and how weird dalmations are…

I do have other gratitue and complaint notes but don’t want to bore you all to death…or make you fall asleep and drool on your keyboards!
