love-15

oh my! joining tennis has officially become the smartest thing that ive done since ive gotten to japan! what a smart smart idea! and what were the chances? i mean, its actually a LESSON and we spent most of the night practising volleying, and long hits, and it was wonderful. i met a bunch of new people. mostly men. in their forties. who speak english. which is DIVINE! and just really, all these people are so nice, and it was so good to feel active! and to have my blood pump, and to finally get the hang of tennis again (but oh boy i still have a long way to go. those guys are GOOD!), and to huff and puff and just feel sweaty and refreshed. i miss it alot. i dont come off as the sporty type (um, maybe because im fat and i like eating!? ha ha), but i fucking love sports. and well, if i cant play soccer, then i might as well play tennis. and yumi, lovely yumi, the woman who invited me to play tennis, she lent me a racket for "a very long time". but, i think i may buy one still. oooh, and the best thing is, because im in japan, people like drinking. oh yes. i will be drinking with these boys!

ive become the sort of person who eats raw tofu with shouyu and negi. mmm. now im about to boil some soba and fry some negi and lettuce and have myself a yummy after-workout feast. and probably eat another block of raw tofu. mmmyummy!
