Getting High ♥ Spendin' G's ♥ Lame Comments

My life has been stressful but good lately. I think it is because [as a good mexican] I always leave important things for

Karina happens to be my middle name, if you ask...

later, and I'm always struggling with my time. However, I think I like to suffer, that's why I don't change my habits and I

don't get organized with my stuff... I guess I'm a walking disaster, but hey... I'm lovin' it.

Today I'm happy =]

I finally got my TOEFL scores, and I have to say I did good [pretty good compared to the rest of my mates I think...] I needed a 590 score to apply to some student exchange program. I got higher scores than I thought I would get. I got a 630. I couldn't help to feel sorry for some of my friends who applied and coulnd't get the 590 they needed. That truly sucks.

Anyways... I even took a picture of my test results that I'll show you in this blog.

Sanrio goodies =]

Yesterday I bought some of my favorite Ice Breakers mints at Target. I don't know why I love them. I just do. I like living in the border because I don't have to buy all of my stuff here, I can always get out of the country and do my shopping somewhere else.

I have a problem with the Free Trade Agreement. They products are

Cute it's expenssive

supposed to be tax-free when they get into this country, so the prices won't get too high, and Canada, the U.S., and Mexico can get affordable items.

Well, that has never happened, because american stuff is WAAAAAAY more expenssive than mexican stuff. But mexican products are already expenssive [some people say it's because we live at the border]. The good thing about living here is that people can go across the border just to do theit shopping [jyst like I do], the bad thing about living here, is that there's a LOT if people

More pink shit...

from the south [including people from other mexican states, and other countries such as Guatemala and El Salvador]

I'm M.I.A.'s Boss...

who want to emmigrate to the United States, but since they can't they stay here and it becomes whole racial issue that I don;t want to discuss because I would get political, just as much as I get when I talk about things like abortion, death penalty that sorta shit.

So yeah, I wait 30 minutes at the border just to go to Target and get my Ice

Breakers, because it's totally worth it. Last weekend I went to the Sanrio store [the mexican one] and spent $200 pesos [$20 dollars] on a pen, stickers and three pencils. Yesterday I went to the [american] Sanrio and I spend $20 dollars on a pocket mirror, a mechanical pencil, a pencil shapener [for the three pencils I bought here, not for a mechanical pencil because that would be retarded] and a big ass plush toy. See the difference?.

I also went to Vans, and Hot Topic. Geez.... I need to grow up a little [not really].

Lately I've noticed that my posts are lame. I don't even know how you people keep reading this. I mean, if I was you, I would've deleted my ass from my neighborhood long ago. I guess you people are too nice to me. Who knows...

My comments are also lame, because my lack of creativity makes me type non-creative replies. That's frustrating.

Ok you people, the song of the day is... uhmm... this song I just heard from Gym Class Heroes' The Quilt, I think the name of the song is DRNK TXT RMEO.

OK you sexy people. Have fun. Happy Wednesday [I can't spell that day]

You'll Never Believe What Happened!

nobody@vox.com(hellojapan) — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 15:25:37 +0000

So yesterday, since we weren't meeting up with our friends until 7, we decided to go down to Shinagawa because Cinnamon was in a running mood. She thought it would be a good day to try to race the shinkansen! We got down there pretty early so there wouldn't be too big a crowd, and she jumped down onto the train tracks when the next train pulled up. Naturally, I jumped down there too, to try to talk her out of it, because seriously, those trains go 180mph! There's no way she could outrun one of those!

Unfortunately, the train conductor saw us and pushed the "Emergency Ninja" button that all shinkansen trains in Japan are equipped with. And suddenly, a ninja appeared out of nowhere (because ninjas can do that - they're ninjas) and we engaged in combat. Too bad for us we had left our shurikens and our nunchaku at home that day. It was a pretty unfair fight, and the ninja captured us and handed us over to the station police.

Apparently, the police don't look too kindly on foreigners who jump onto the train tracks, so they booked us into the jail. While we were there, we had tea with a very nice man in the cell next to us who looked like Buddha. He gave us his business card so we can keep in touch with him. After a few hours, a guard came by and told us we had two options. Either we could pay a hefty bail or we could take our chances in a one on one sumo match with the emperor.

Naturally, since we aren't the millionaire foreigners the old guy at the palace assumed we were, we decided it would be best to fight. We played "rock paper scissors" to see who would get to be the lucky sumo wrestler, and Cinnamon won, so I was the unlucky loser and they took me to an arena to prepare for my impending fight. It was quite an ordeal there. First they made me bathe, so I wouldn't bring any dirt into the arena, then I had to change into a loincloth (because it's tradition, after all), and some guy who I guess was supposed to be my coach came and yelled at me for about half an hour. I didn't catch much of what he said, but I'm pretty sure he called me foreign scum and told me not to disgrace the emperor.

Then I was brought out to the arena and lo and behold, Cinnamon and Mr. Buddha were in the audience! Everybody was booing me, but I had a lot of fighting spirit after that yelling session earlier. The emperor was a surprisingly tiny guy, so I figured I could beat him pretty easily, especially since after eating all that fast food since I've been here, I've really bulked up (I'm a good 250lbs now).

The match was over surprisingly quickly, with me easily overtaking Emperor Scrawny McWimpPants. Afterward, he came over and congratulated me on a job well done. He said he was so impressed with my fighting style that he would allow both me and Cinnamon to go free. I thanked him for his generosity and once I had changed back into my street clothes, we were set free.

Later, we met up with the girls and had delicious meat for dinner.

Today, we called up Mr. Buddha and he said that he would be working in Shibuya in the evening, giving out free hugs near the Hachiko Exit of the station, so we should drop by. So we did. It turns out that he's actually a pretty important guy in the San-X corporation and he offered the both of us jobs at the Hello Kitty factory in Yokohama. Naturally, we both jumped on the chance to work for such a wonderful company. Needless to say, we won't be coming back to America or Barnes & Noble. Sorry, guys. You're just no match for a cute, white cat with no mouth.

Catch you all on the flipside.
