^.^# I'm really happy guys. Like, I'm amazed that I feel this good, or this strongly about someone. I can't wait to see Joe again. I just want to feel us together. To feel that energy once again. It feels so good not to hurt. To love without fear. To not hold doubts. I feel as long as he is in my life, I'll be more then ok. I'll be more then content. He is my happiness. He is my love. I'm better then fine. Life in good. Life is good. Life is good. Everytime we talk, I beam. My body lights up. This electricity he has. Its delicious and I just want more. I want to be intimate. I want to know everything about him. I want the rest of my life where we arn't apart.

I had an excelent day today. When I was getting ready, the rain was pouring so hard that I really thought about canceling. But I put my make up on and got dressed and I felt cute and that modivated me to not wimp out.

I went with Dan and Yui, his speaking partner. I was a bit nervous about meeting Yui but she was wonderful! She was very smart and fun. I was very impressed when I asked her what she wanted to do as a career and she told me that she believes in peace so she wants to work for an NGO and thats why she's an english major. Wow, thats great! She also had cool stories about Iceland, which she recently traveled too. It made me want to not forget to travel, once I get back to america. There is so much I want to do. I must not forget!

Me and Yui! Its so lushy ^.^ I lurve nature!!

We first went to Kinkaku (Golden Pavilion) and even though it was raining was a beautiful place.

Don't the rain drops on the pine make it even prettier?

Me and the Pavilion! haha Yui wouldn't stand for my silliness and told me and Dan to pose in front of it!



We wnt walking behind it and threw money at this little dude! My second try got a 1yen in the metal bowl! I was trying for the water though. I told myself this earned me luck, not wishes.
Oh random note. While we walked I talked to Yui about religion. She told me she wasn't religious and did buy Omamori for protection or Ema for her entrance exams. SHe kinda suprised me in her additude toward religion and she seemed equally suprised by my answers about religion! ::laughes::

Totally breath-taking. ((Ryan-head I hope I'm making you insanely jelous!!))

Behind the Golden Pavilion is Rokuonji Temple

A close up of the Engrish for your enjoyment!
We bought fortunes! And mine was "Good" Said to not hold back in my love. And I don't plan on holding back <3 Also said other stuff .. but I tied it up so I don't remember what it said!


Then we went to Ninomaru Palace! They didn't allow pictures of the inside, so theres just a lot of pictures of the outside instead! The inside was way cool though! I loved all the ornate detail payed to the walls and room deviders. Totally rocked my socks off.

Wow .. big~




The Shogun's backyard .. lol
After the inside tour we walked around the gardens, even though it was raining I was so glad everybody else wanted to!





The leaves are already starting to change!! By the time my love gets to Japan its going to be so pretty and chilly. I'll need so many cuddles! and it'll be pretty and winter and stuff!

Its so easy to forget you are still in the middle of the city!
My favorite part was when me and Dan and Yui where running around on the squeaky floors of the castle. They sound like birds chirping. Its way cool. I mean I know it was for the Shogun's protection from assasins, but its soooooooooo much fun! We ran/jumped around making noise like silly-heads.
Lunch was great! We went to a cheap place and I got Tempura Udon. Yeah I know I eat it too much, but I love it so much! (-.- yes I did have it for both lunch and dinner, ahahaha)

When in Kyoto, do as the Kyotoians do...

Eat the Shrimp tail XP (haha! Liz you were behaving totally Japanese when you ate that tail that one time!) Its not appealing, but Yui ate hers and I had to do the same. Don't I look way asian in that picture? It must be the shrimp tail eating that turned me asian looking .. or the angle.. lol

We rode the Subways home and they had the gates so you can't kill yourself as the train aproaches. yay?


Ok, ok I know two weeks ago I said I had my eye on that crane emblem, but scrap that and check this out.

This beautiful guy kept in the same Purple and teal colors. Oh I love him. I think he'd look great on my lower back/side area. With his head facing my stomack and his tail feathers going up my lower back? I'll scetch this out and then doodle on myself so I make more sense. >.> I'm not totally sure about this, but its good to let idea simmer, yeah know? And god to I want to feel it again. But I don't want to look tacky or cluttered. Or mismatched. I hate that I have to get a tattoo to feel that pain. What crap. Merr.. but I can't think of a painful experiance that would satisfy that tattoo craving. Anyway, I love his hollow feathers, my wings are hollow too. Here is another picture of the guy. I like the first angle/position better.
And behind it I'd want some japanese pattern that would exentuate the hollow wings.
Ideas.Ideas.Ideas. But none of those exactly .. I really liked the interior of the forts wall decorations .. merr .. I could proablly find a image of it somewhere >.> and the background would not just fuzzy out but be contained by clouds. the japanese style of "clouds" I can't find an image .. but if I went to a musuem I could point out what I mean and photograph it!!
Sorry that was a long fleshing out of just an idea..

There was lots of talk of Boxes today. And that makes me laugh. Ryan sent me and Pfil a picture of his new haircut, subject of the email "Sex." I responded to him, "Oh noes! there is sex in my box!" without meaning it with the box joke activated, but the second it came out, I thought it was twice as funny as before. This email is even more dirty cos it also included a picture of a praying mantis. If I've learned anything from Bondage Faries (vol. 3 -.-;; lol), mixing a Pfil and a praying mantis equals kinky sex! Lol, I love that guys name. Later, live journal scrapbook kept asking how many boxes I needed, but it gave me a 10 box max?! I love life.

w00t! I'm drunk on life and bourbon (mostly bourbon)!

Today was awesome, I'm glad you had a good time too. If you want to learn a little more about that legendary bird you are so fond of, it's called hôô or fenghuang in Chinese. Wikipedia is your friend.

Anyway, I thought I'd plug my post discussing today's trip and my dedicated picture page as well. It's all part of what I call a "mutual picture exchange."

OK, I should go to bed now. See you around campus next week! Maybe we can hang out next weekend too, it's high time you saw Osaka!

I said no pictures of Kinkakuji :(

Well, that's 2 of my list you've beat me to. I won't hold it against you too bad or anything unless you wind up seeing Dir en grey or something.

Then we'd be OVER!

::huggles him:: they don't have the barriers on the trains .. but i think its because the subways have the rails with electricty flowing through them so it was easier to die instantly and therefore a prefered way to go .. I've read of people surviving train maulings .. >.>

I love you. Its 19 days for me :D

This has absolutely nothing to do with your post, really, except that the pictures are awesome, as usual.
Remind me at some point to take and upload a picture of a new sushi place out by the college where I teach: Oosaka. I haven't figured out if there is a Japanese word "oosaka", if they were playing around with the expression "oooh" and the place "Osaka", or if they just don't know what Osaka looks like in English, but I know you'll crack up when you see the sign.

I didn't come up with much googling it .. it might be acceptable to pronouce the city of Osaka that way. It also seems to be a last name here. Or maybe its a typo!
