Just before I was going to make lunch, however, the cleaning people showed up for their monthly cleaning. A bit ridiculous that they only clean once per month, but we are expected to keep this place clean ourselves, I guess. It's reasonable, but just that. They were nice enough to let me make my lunch, which consisted of a hash brown, toast with strawberry jelly, and a combination of 3 eggs, onions, cheese, and some sausages. Not quite an omelette, but close enough. They were also nice enough to clean my dishes for me, which I didn't even ask them to do (nor would I really know how to) (just kidding, I do), and then I was off to go exploring of a sort.
Or just go back to the Cibico. I showed up at the right time for "free time", or 580 yen for as much as you want to drink (soft drinks) and play (games of any sort). I tried out Para Para Paradise and probably looked like a fool, because that game is all based on hand waving; also, DDR Solo, of which the cabinet only had like 10 songs. Weak. After more rhythm based songs, I was getting blisters, so I decided that it was time to leave. Maybe find a quiet place to go do homework.
Ha, good luck with that. The street festivals were in full swing by the time I walked out the door. A short bike ride put me in the perfect place to get some nice pictures and a pretty good video, both of which I'll be uploading shortly. I remembered that some of my friends were coming by and would be near the train station at 5 or a little bit after, so I went there and of course ran into and surprised them. We watched the street festival, saw some live action Power Rangers (which was a bit too much like the TV show for my liking, but maintained the cheesiness factor), and had some really good beef.
So, I was of course tired after that, with an hour or so of DDR and then some fairly intense bike rides to get there and back, so I probably won't do a whole lot tomorrow morning. Check my next post to see if I do.
