I cleaned my apartment and played video games all afternoon. Then my friend Kim came over (not Kimie) and we made sushi. I'm not very good at it yet, I packed the rice down way too much and it was hard to eat. (It still tasted pretty good though!)

After dinner, we watched Con Air, played Mario Kart, and just talked. She's pretty awesome! I'm her date to her company party on Wednesday, so maybe I'll be deciding if I LIKE-like her or if we're just going to be friends.

Working 20 hours a week is weird ... I feel like a total half-ass slacker. But I'm accustomed to working this job AND taking 18 credits of senior-level college classes ... so with all my newfound free time, it looks like I'm reading Eugene Onegin by Pushkin, I'm playing Zelda, and I'm learning to make sushi. Not bad!
