Yay! Spring is really just around the corner, such a nice day outside が such a headache I have!!! I think I would be an embarrassment to my college drinking buddies if they knew that after a pint and two bottles I'd be having a headache the next day - not a hangover mind you, just a headache - not too bad considering I'm out of practice - not counting those nights when I sneak a bottle while watching my favourite shows - yeah yeah maybe not something to be proud of......so anyways!!!
Yesterday, after 日本語クラス my classmates and I went over to the Japan Foundation on Bloor St to see the photo exhibition and check out their library. The library had LOTS of manga (in English and Japanese), it is a regular library where you can get a library card and borrow stuff - meaning I can borrow the manga for free が at this point though if I cannot read the manga in Japanese, I really see no point in borrowing them as it defeats my purpose of reading the manga.
それから we walked to Guu Izakaya on Church and a little south of College, we were in line to get in at around 4:40pm - the place opens at 5:00pm. Too excited to get in? Weeeeell.......we were actually glad we came that early as 10 minutes after we got there the line just kept on growing. This is a new place in Toronto - I think just about a few months old so not sure if it was the novelty of it being new that the line-ups are quite long, however, the concept of the place is supposedly like a Japanese bar wherein the staff would yell out the orders - pretty much a loud and lively place. There is a two hour limit by the way - which was okay as the place was quite pricey and the servings were small (but beautifully presented). We shared our orders so we got to try different kinds of stuff - one of my favourites: Maguro Tataki. I as well discovered Ume-Shu (Japanese Plum Wine) - gotta look for this at the LCBO (^-^).
After we dispersed (as we had the two hour limit).....I was on to my second party - a birthday party - you gotta be proud of me - I was nowhere near the microphone! That could also have contributed to my headache - I was exercising self control not to sing the whole night!!!
So here I am today, nursing a headache - though I am not about the waste such a great day outside - so what's on for today......I shall see.......
