I'm back. I'm tired. ;_; And strangly enough I'm having some trouble re-adjusting to a normal keyboard after the Japanese ones. -_- Anyway, flight from Narita Airport to Seattle was ~8h 20m, then 1.5 of so hours in Seattle, then a 30min or so flight up to Vancouver. Where there was a huge lineup to get through customs. ^^;; Anyway, the main flight wasn't bad, since we were on the bulkhead and thus had far more legroom than the normal seats. Watched "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", which was confusing and weird enough without the added difficulty of trying to hear it properly on the plane (why on earth don't they give you the option of subtitles? That'd be very helpful...), and Galaxy Quest which I'd seen before but is still amusing in a very silly way, and Alan Rickman is still awesome. Also Robin Sachs is in it, though he was in full makeup and even his voice sounded completely different. ^^

Glad to be home now. Have unpacked most of the presents to show to Dad; unfortunately there's one little thing I can't find anywhere, but hopefully it'll show up... Got a CD in the mail from Nimbus 2003 which made me go *blink*; am going to stick it into my comptuer soon and see what it is... pretty cool, anyway. ^^

Will write up a full detailed account of the trip (theoretically) later, as well as possibly a list of all the shit I bought (except what I bought for you guys, cause I don't want to ruin the surprise, obviously. ^_^). Think I spent ~$400... ^^;;

Ugh, am v. tired. It's early tomorrow morning Japan time right now, and according to my body I've been up all night, even though here it's the afternoon and is the same time as when I left yesterday. O.o Confusing and tiring. ^^;; Want to see everyone soon, so I'll get ahold of you guys later... too tired to concentrate right now.

*collapse*

Okaeri-nasai~ Though don't go to sleep until evening, or else you'll regret it later. ;p

^^ Too late, but I only slept for about an hour... I really hope the anti-jet-lag stuff'll do its thing. ^_^

Welcome back!

[ria-oaks.livejournal.com]

Thanks. ^_^ We should get together sometime soon so I can give you prezzies; maybe once we've got our photos done so you can see them.

[serephina-belli.livejournal.com]

=D

When are you free?

[ria-oaks.livejournal.com]

Hm, at the moment anytime. I'm not really sure - I have several people I need to meet up with. ^^ I'll let you know sometime soon.

[bronzejarith.livejournal.com]

You could always invite her along to the movie I think we're going to tomorrow, you know. ^^

[ria-oaks.livejournal.com]

Good point. ^^ Ne, bloody_sakura, you want to come to a movie with us? No idea which movie, but we're working on it... well, tomorrow we'll talk about it. bronzejarith, maybe I'll give you a call in the afternoon, or you can call me? Barring that I'll get you online at some point... I'll probably either sleep really late tomorrow or wake up at 6am, so we'll see.. *g*

If we're going tomorrow, I can't go very late, as I have to get up early the next morning. I'll prolly be on msn throughout the day, though may be away for some of it.

[ria-oaks.livejournal.com]

Okay. Would a show ~7 be okay? At Esplanade or P&T? We should maybe stop by at one of our houses first to exchange loot... cause you luv me and bought me stuff in China, right? :P J/k. At least maybe we can assemble at my house so I can dole out the stuff? Plus in your case it's partly for your b-day.

[bronzejarith.livejournal.com]

Why, of -course- I love you, my darlin'. But honestly no, I didn't, 'cause I couldn't bring back anything heavy-duty. Our tickets were on standby until the last minute, so we couldn't have any luggage other than what we could haul onto the plane directly. Other than Naruto trinkets, which I believe you would have heaps of already, I can't think of anything . . . hrm, I'll give you some of Naruto? Have to categorize some of the later CDs, but I'll bring some after episode 20. IF you promise to take good care of them. <.< >.> Other than that, I guess you'll have to wait until my dad lugs all my gifts back for me. Sorry, dear.

7? I was thinking 4~5 . . . too early?

[ria-oaks.livejournal.com]

Feelin' the love. :P Anyway, yeah, anything from ep21-up would be cool. What kinds of Naruto trinkets? I have a few kinda boring keychains (they're just images - I found some little figure keychains in Kanazawa which I really wish I'd bought, but I didn't cause I thought I'd see them again. -_-), and lots of little figures I got in those coin machines where you turn a lever and get a toy. But if you have any little Gaara figures that you don't care about parting with... *whistles innocently*

Oh, okay, that's fine. I just assumed that more movies would be showing in the evening, but I'm sure most of them have matinees, too. I'll check tomorrow morning.

[bronzejarith.livejournal.com]

No Gaara, sorry dear. 1) I'm not a fan, 2) not many people in China are, looking from the point of the utter lack of Gaara-ness. ^.~

Yeah, earlier would be better, although I won't have a car . . .

[ria-oaks.livejournal.com]

No one seems to be. :( Hence the lack of any doujinshi based on him. Wah. Oh well, I'll live. ^_^

Hm, if bloody_sakura's coming, maybe she can drive. Or I can probably drag a ride out of my parents. My grandparents might be coming over tomorrow, but it'll probably be the early afternoon so we should be fine.
