Fall is heeeere

Well, it was for about a week. Then it got hot again...so not exactly sure when fall will officially start. It's in the 70s this week, so perfect t-shirt weather :D

The past two weeks have kind of been a blur since I've been so busy, but shall try to give a basic rundown.
On the 24th had a dinner date with Kei & Ellie at their apartment - made karaage + peanut butter cookies X3 SO YUMMY! Also enjoyed the kpop spazzing we did for at least 2 hours...must do again soon~ That Saturday I met up with Taketo and we just hung out in Shinjuku~ Was very fun window shopping, and now I've realized about so many new stores, it's dangerous...especially since my work is so close by rofl.

Last Monday FINALLY got my gaijin card, so went directly to Immigration afterwards and started my visa application process :D It usually takes about 6 weeks to finalize, so hoping everything goes smoothly! On Thursday had dinner and shopping with Sam in Ikebukuro. OH MY GOSH, so much fun!! She's just as much a cute stuff shopaholic as me, so weren't very good influences on eachother, I'll just say that rofl...We went to Milky Way, which is a dessert cafe in the area, and I HAVE to post a photo of what we got, pure amazingness. I believe I must take every.single.friend to this place of joy.

On Friday night went to Shibuya and met Kyoko for dinner ^^ She took me to an izakaya, and I was actually quite surprised how nice it was~ Reminded me of lounges in the US, so must go back again, great for relaxing. We went to karaoke after, and since she's a huge DBSK fan we did a lot of their Japanese songs...was a first for me ~ But the place we went was SO cheap, need to ask where we went and become a regular lol. After that I met up with Kozue and we just hung out until midnight window shopping~ Then we went to FLASH!!! and kyaha so good~ I'd originally RSVPed for a group going there together, but got caught up being with Kozue that I just saw everyone at the event. Left earlier than last time, so went to Saizeriya at 4am for fooooood. And oh my gosh, can't wait to see these people again. None of them really spoke English, so great chance to practice Japanese, and oh so fun :D
