In the Rain!

Wednesday, it is raining hard, all day Chupa Chups tennis was canceled, and I have yet again utilized the internet almost non-stop for 4hrs. The CIE lounge is quiet (thanks to spring break), but it is like my own glass prison. Today I have decided to convince my room mates to get the internet. My problem is that I don't have a computer. I am still toying with the idea, but it could have repercussions of turning our apartment into zombies. I am recalling when we first found out we had local TV stations. TV is a waste of time, and the internet eats your soul. We all have internet identities; significant or not, they own us just a little bit. I am taking time out of my day to write here, therefore internet=soul sucker.
I also spent a large chunk of time learning about Google Reader, and manga titles to check out while I'm here. I was able to add my entire Anthropology class' blogs to reader, as well as find Professor Seaman's blog. I turned a huge mess of information into something accessible and useful. I feel slightly accomplished. There are like ten other things I can think of that I should be doing though. Bummer.
I want to go into town to rent some music and movies. I also want to search for Satoshi Kon's World Apartment Horror. I saw it at the manga museum and I need to own it. I am a big fan of his works, and I hope to someday analyze them in depth. Up until now I have only written one paper about his Series: Paranoia Agent.
Tomorrow I will be going to Osaka. Den Den town, Shinsaibashi to be more specific. There is a Dojinshi festival thing going on from 1PM to 4PM. It should be a good time. I'm looking forward to exploring Shinsaibashi more. I hope to try Fugu (props to Ben Sherman), and go to a nice Kaiten Zushi bar that Johnny told me about. Friday, I really want to hit up Nara. The weather should be nicer then, and I want to see wild deer.
Now I'm thinking of food. I need to go home soon and make dinner! I'm going to make some bomb chicken stir fry rice. All I've had all day is a Kiwi, Corn Flakes, and 3 color Dango.
Cory Out.
