been a while since my last update. just been busy with all the logistics that come with goin' to another country for 8 days. got my re-entry permit at the chiba immigration office. it was probably my best experience there. went in the afternoon after lunch and there were quite a number of peeps there. however, when i took a number, i only had to wait for like 4 other ppl. so i quickly filled out the paperwork when my number was called. i had everything but the stamp which the lady at the counter told me to get. by the time i came back with the stamp, she had my passport all ready for me. i must've been there less than 30 min!

this past weekend we had our 5th annual (only my second) xmas party. this year was @ sean's place. a pretty good turn out and interestin' white elephant gift exchange too. i picked a bottle of nihon shuu (sake) which i was totally happy bout. but somebody "stole" it from me, so i took the gift that the person who "suggested" takin' my gift. turns out that both us don't really need that gift cuz we already have one. all in all, it was a nice, chill party. also found out that satomi is 3 months pregnant. congrats to eug & satomi! here are some pics:

in da news...

- here's an interestin' thread from a little over 4 years ago when the 1g (first generation) ipod was announced. pretty interestin' to read peoples' reaction and to see how everything turned out.

- sex for an xbox?

How far would you go to get an Xbox 360? Well, if one Craigslist.org ad were to be believed, two Boston-area women would do just about anything to get their hands on the next-gen console. Under the headline "trade sex for an xbox 360," a person claiming to be a 22-year-old woman said "Me and my roommate are totally hard core gamers, but our desperate (sic) attempts to get an Xbox 360 have gotten us nothing so far." The poster told responders to "send me a photo of you holding the system, and tell me what I have to do to get it." She did not mention any particular lewd acts but said her roommate was also willing to join in, despite being "really shy." But while the poster was apparently willing to debase herself to get an Xbox 360, she still had standards. "I'm looking for the PREMIUM system, not the ****ty watered down one," she said. Was the ad for real? We'll never know. Inquiries sent to the e-mail address went unanswered, and the posting has since been removed by the ever-vigilant Craigslist Community.
