It was all dark, and Alex said, &#8220;Well, THIS is where the secret ninja training happens!&#8221; so I took a pic, with that mood in mind. XD<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/ninja-training.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/ninja-training.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"ninja training\" width=\"444\" height=\"494\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2016\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Then I had lunch with Alex.  It was supposed to be Sweets Paradise, but the line was an hour and a half.  Then at Jonathans, we were gonna do ice cream and then real food, but we got full on ice cream, so it turned into a super unhealthy lunch. *Laugh*  <\/p>\n<p>Then I went into work and taught two bonus lessons.  I was soooo sugar high that I think my student (a 50-ish year old business man) must have thought I was on crack. XD Or just drank a red-bull or something. Hah<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/roxanne-ice-cream.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/roxanne-ice-cream.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"roxanne ice cream\" width=\"290\" height=\"389\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2017\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nThen I bought groceries in Sanwa and was just on my way home when I spotted some event in Lazona- gold-fish scooping!  I failed last time I did it at the Koga Matsuri, like 4 years ago.  Then I watched Kadowaki-san and he got like FIVE GOLD FISH.  It was amazing.  You have to use this paper scoop to scoop them into a cup.  Of course when paper gets wet, it breaks.  So there&#8217;s a trick to it, and while watching him, I learned it! \ud83d\ude00  So I wanted to try!<\/p>\n<p>I tried and GOT TWO GOLD FISH, BOO YEAH!!!<\/p>\n<p>And&#8230;.I took them home. ^^;; Actually, I tried to raise two gold fish when I was a kid, but both died&#8230;.very sad.  But I only had a bowl.  I&#8217;ve been wanting fish for a while now, but never wanted to spend the money and bother&#8230;BUT SCREW IT I bought it. XD I spent like one hour getting instructions from the lady who worked in the pet store (I hope my yoghurt and cottage cheese didn&#8217;t go bad in that hour&#8230;it&#8217;s okay, right?)<\/p>\n<p>I was just about to buy my stuff  (which totaled 8,000 yen, about a hundred bucks) when this lady came over with a little 5 year old boy in tow.  &#8220;We got this but we can&#8217;t keep it.  Won&#8217;t you take it?&#8221; and she handed me another gold fish! \ud83d\ude00  So now I have three. ^^;;  SWEET!<\/p>\n<p>So I just finished putting together my tank of water and stuff&#8230;.now my<br \/>\nfishies are soaking in their bag.  It was hard to put in the water plants&#8230;I thought it&#8217;d be easy but they keep getting uprooted from the gravel. x_x;;  Hahah I can&#8217;t wait to see Alex&#8217;s expression when she comes home and I&#8217;m like, &#8220;I got fish!&#8221;  LOL<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today kicked butt!
