How many years has it been
Since we went on a trip to a hot spring?

You guys are great
I can talk to you totally openly

Your height and age
May be different
But we’ve been together a long time

Let’s have no guilt, no mercy
We’ll be friends like this all our lives

We’ll have a ping pong match right away
It’s supposed to be for fun, but it’s dead serious
You’re such great bandmates
I love you

Nobody’s calling it
A graduation vacation

But everyone’s put a lot of thought
Into planning it

You’re clumsy and you eat a lot
And you laugh a lot
You guys are so nice

Full speed ahead! A great crowd of us
We’ll stay that way til morning for sure

We’ll eat hot spring bean curd buns! Loads of them
They’re supposed to be snacks but we can’t stop eating them
You’re such great bandmates
I love you

Let’s have no guilt, no mercy
We’ll be friends like this all our lives

We’ll have a ping pong match right away
It’s supposed to be for fun, but it’s dead serious
You’re such great bandmates
I love you

You’re such great bandmates
I love you

I love you

I’ll never forget you
I’ll never forget you
I want to be by your side forever
But I guess there’s nothing we can do
Ah, I think I’m going to cry

Let’s toast the day we met
Did you notice
That my hair’s grown since then?
Was it by chance that we met?
If it is then it’s even by chance that we’re saying goodbye

You taught me that
The stars in Tokyo
Are the same as the stars in my hometown

I’ll never forget you
I’ll never forget you
I want to be by your side forever
But I guess there’s nothing we can do

You’ll never forget me
Don’t forget me
I want to be by your side a bit longer
But it’s time to go
Ah, I think I’m going to cry

Memories are so simple
So even this sadness will become a memory

We’ll surely meet again
We’ll surely be able to smile at each other again
We’ll get to meet again, it’s inevitable

Na Na Na Na…

I’ll never forget you
I’ll never forget you
I want to be by your side forever
But I guess there’s nothing we can do

You’ll never forget me
Don’t forget me
I want to be by your side a bit longer
But it’s time to go
Ah, I think I’m going to cry

Back to the daily toil of work.. and still I am looking to get back into the office so that I can sort myself out financially and prepare for the future. I mean, being married 4 months have changed me quite a bit.. I mean, The Roadster says that I nag a bit more, even though I feel that I haven't changed that much... It is actually another step.. and after being together 7 years, it's a really big step. Time is going by so fast and I know that before I know it, It's going to be our first year wedding anniversary.. Still there are alot of things I want to achieve.

When I finally get paid, I am going to start to learning how to drive. That would be a great advantage here in the UK.. Let me tell you, there are so many things I can't do cos of the hassle of traveling. I mean going to central London, I need a bus ride and multiple changes on the London Underground or Overground, just to get to certain destinations. Also, if I managed to get an office job in the City, I would probably make more friends who are around my age. Everyone here in the pub is like 8 years my junior or the person who is a year older than me, behaves like a bloody teenager, going out to get pissed all the time.. and all of them are not married, so there isn't like a support group for "Just in case I get pissed off with my husband, I have someone to talk to"... I miss everyone back home... Esp, Cheryl, Teeny and Aric.. I miss hanging out with them.. I miss the time that when I am stressed that I need to get away from everything that I can just call them and out we go to Minori for dinner and karaoke.. Argh.. I can't wait till I can go back home in March, even for three weeks... I will be fine and focused again.. Just the lack of having someone who understand or people of like minds to hang around with is so hard.. But I know that they still support me..

Sometimes, I feel that I have been distant from all of them and they feel abit distant from me as well.. but that's life isn't it.. I only want to go back and build the bond.. I am very glad that they haven't forgotten me.. Even buying gifts for me even though I am not there... I love them to bits and I don't know what to get for them when I come back.. I hope I make the right choices...

Main aim now is to work and get another job so that I can have more money, not to get pregnant before then so that I can take another set of PROPER wedding pictures, rather than the slap hazzard job that Uncle Johnson did...

Here is what I need to do:
1) Get driving licence
2) Get New Laptop
3) Get Ice cream maker for xmas
4) Go home for a holiday
5) Lose weight
6) New Job
7) Put down a deposit for a house in the next 5 years or for Hubby to get his own pub
8) Then Have kids...

I wonder if I can do it all....

Well, I have been unable to work for 4 months and I have been like housewife-like during that period.. I am actually frustrated and I don't seem to be getting much appreciation.. I mean I know what is required of me that is to be done, but is it too much to ask for a little help?? I mean not from my husband.. No no.. The Roadster has been alright.. I mean I have been taking care of the house.. AND THE BROTHER IN LAW!!!.. I mean I have to cook, clean and do the laundry for him.. Never mind.. since I got nothing else to do during the four months, I'll do it.. But I have just started work and my boss has somewhat thrown me back into what I use to do, not slowly let me sink into it.. Literally thrown me into the deep end of it.. as we like to say it here.. I came back on Sunday, after working long shifts since last Wednesday, Only to find that he didn't throw away the rice in the rice cooker, that has since fermented.. and the clothes that has been hanging there since I can't remember when since I did the last laundry, are still there.. NEVER MIND!! I went to tell The Roadster.. who went to tell his brother.. and what happen?!! He called and tell me that he didn't know that there was rice in the rice cooker, cos he didn't see.. and besides, he never use the rice cooker.. Well DOES IT MEAN THAT EVEN THOUGH U DON'T USE IT, YOU DON'T HAVE TO CLEAN IT?! BASKET!! WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN EATING FOR THE LAST FOUR MONTHS? AIR!?.. Did the food magically appeared? I went to buy the food, even with a sprained ankle, I lugged all the food back from Tesco and cooked it for you.. And made sure you have food to it.. BASKET You are 25 years old.. I am not your GF or your Wife.. I am your Brother's Wife and furthermore, I have a hard time taking care of your brother already and Now I am back at work.. I don't have time to take care of you.. You make it sound that you are under alot of stress.. Well, Tough.. All of us are.. but you also need to pull your weight around.. You are pencil pusher, no offence there.. but I am working 40 hours a week.. AND ON WEEKENDS, while you spend all day on Sat and Sunday on your bloody PS3!! Get a bit of housework done, won't kill you right?! FIACK!!!!
