I need your love

HACHI! ROCKIN! SAME FLOOR!!!

THIS CALLS FOR A DRINKING PARTY

Oh...um....

Mille... did we...

What am I saying.. I know we did...

Hachi.. what I meant to say... I didnt know you were here... why...?

... So. I'm a guy. Somehow I feel like I should be in more shock than I actually am... but really: Whoop-de-freaking-do! Its not like its nothing I've ever seen before! Hm. Wonder how everyone else turned out.

..this guy kinda smells though.

I'm taking a bath.

Hmm.... Miso soup sounds good right now!!

Well CRAP, I havent written in this thing for a while!!!

Practices have been going pretty good. I met with Quat some time ago and came up with a score for the newest song. Hiro's been awesome... we've been working on lyrics like mad. He's a great musician, seriously. And a cool guy too. I like working with him!! Oh yeah, that reminds me! Hiro, lets try and finish off that last verse!!! I really want to perform it soon! This song is too good to just leave it hanging!!!!

Mille is still the sweetest thing ever!
I think I'm about ready to kick my fencing up a notch too!

I cant believe I missed the party. Awh man!!! Well, i'm sure there'll be others.

Good news is, I'm almost done writing the lyrics to a new song. Yo, Hiro! I want you to look over it and fix it up for me ;D Sometime soon, k? Its that song we've been working on the past couple of weeks. I need to snag Quat, show him the part I want him to play for the song. *laughs* call me crazy, but I want to perform it sometime next week.

I'm really starting to nail the hand movements and posture for fencing too.

Hey, Hiro! Practices are every other night at the bar! ;D You better be there! Me and the guys were working on a song, and we totally need you there. I wanna see if I can get a real punk rock guitarist out of you~

I've been working a lot on the fencing technique too. Man, what would everyone say if they heard I was getting into fencing? Baaah, it wouldnt matter. They'd probably laugh, but I would probably just hit them all. So what? Why cant a girl like me get into fencing?? Its really a lot of fun!

I still have to imagine what Hachi would say. She probably would think it was really cool, an would think I'm amazing at it. *laughs* That girl... sometimes I feel like I miss her the most

Theres still the matter of the cute young blond I saw that one time I was practicing. He seems a little shy. I should pay him a visit sometime.

The deck party was fuuuunnnnnn <3 Even though I dont remember a lot of it. I remember meeting a kid from Tokyo... Ishida, I think! And Mille! *laughs* Hey, Mille honey, I didnt do anything embarrassing did I?

Practice the other day went great! I'm really pumped!!! Another performance is coming up on Sunday!!

...Speaking of which, there was a kid who walked in during my practice. He was blond, and really looked like he was enjoying the music. I dunno why, but I just kinda locked into him. So.. hey, kid! If you're reading this, I'd like you to respond! ;) please and thank you~!

I still want to try out fencing.

I think the small band is ready! Thats right, a gig is coming up and soon!!
This has been really different for me, let me say. I've never really worked with anyone other than my own band. I really miss Yasu... Nobu and Shin. I mean.. rocking out with them.

So. Tomorrow then.

I'll go sleep in my old room tonight.. lets just hope theres some peace and quiet.

Been practicing with my bar crew some, trying to get them up to speed. They're not doing too bad... I mean, its kinda nice to work with other musicians, but at the same time I miss working with guys who know their shit.

Sleeping a little better now, but I think I'm close to take up some offers. Sleeping on the floor? Not exactly the most comfortable thing in the world.

Its hard to practice singing in the room with a yelping pooch and a loud roomie. You'd think with Hachi around, I'd get used to it.

Lots of sleepless nights too. Excel Excel is loud, conscious or not. If its not her, its Menchi whining

Soo, I've taken to practicing my songs at the bar. Still doesnt fix the sleeping problem. I wonder if theres a backroom in the bar I could crash in for a couple of days

I got the job... problem is there isnt much of a band to sing with. ;D With a little work, I can get some of these guys in shape, no problem.

A lot more people seem to be showing up in this place... some kids are fun, others are starting to annoy the hell out of me. I've started getting a little bit more angrier than usual, but that cant last too long... right?

I've been looking for things to distract from my constant need for cigarettes... and now that I have credits, I just need to find something to replace it. Gum just wont cut it.. I hate that clicky sound it makes... and I'm afraid to go the candy route.. with as often as I used to smoke, I'll definately gain like twenty pounds. Hopefully a patch will be ok..

Oor I can use my credits on some drinks! Yeaaah, its been a while since I've had a beer!!

I think I'm going to make something special to eat tonight... Miso soup sounds good..

I'm going to stop by this said bar tomorrow and see if I can get a job singing there.

I should probably resist the urge of spending all the credits on smokes... maybe the whole credits thing is a good way for me to try to kick the habit even though DAMMIT I want to smoke..

Some practice with singing for an audience will be nice. I've missed the feeling.

N..Need... cigarettes....

I finally have a chance to save my voice and quit the damn things but.. AUGH. I cant take it anymore!!!!

I'll just have to play the guitar in the entertainment floor and sing..
Maybe I'll make some cash.
And maybe I might get offered to perform on stage.

...I need to chew on something.

Huh..? Weird. When I typed that the dog here yelped. (I think its name is Menchi?)

Been here for a while... More people show up... and I cant help but hope a little for a chance to play on a stage...

I've been wondering more and more about my roomie... I've been running out of the room whenever I see her come in... but now I'm thinking I should probably talk to her...

Tell her to keep the snoring down in the middle of the night.

And that she mumbles in her sleep.

...The hell's a Menchi...? Isnt that food...? And whats a 'Palazzo? (I think thats what she said... I dont know...)

...the dog keeps crying.

So I've been here a while, and I still havent bothered talking to my roommate yet. I'm hardly in the room and when I'm there, she's not. Theres some kind of dog roaming around the room, and I'm assuming its hers... but when I sat down to chill out the other day... it looked like he was trying to get out of the room. It was crazy! He was just going at the windows and scratching from under the doors! I thought he'd give after some time, but he kept at it. I almost felt sorry for the little guy. I considered opening a door and letting him go... but he's not my dog. If I get a chance to talk to my roommate though...

I'm telling her to freaking take care of it.
Besides all that, the dog's cute. After it tired itself out, I made some food and gave him some scraps. He made really happy sounds and kinda snuggled up next to me. Finally! Someone who likes my salty cooking!!!

I wonder if Hachi would get jealous to hear I was taking care of another dog ;D

Hm.. well, I think I oughta go practice in my secret spot. Better make sure the dog doesnt get out on my way out.

I havent really gotten to the swing of things yet... its weird to actually live in a place like this. I havent met my roomie yet, and really I dont care. I've been busy looking for quiet secluded places in this ship to practice... since the heating and the A/C kinda dont like to work. Its hard to get comfortable here.

Paradise... it sounds... great. Anywhere where I can sing... no distractions... nothing in my way...
I can just hear Yasu... he'd probably say something like I went to far.. that going it alone, I wont really be happy... of course with Ren right behind him and Hachi crying in the background.
I guess there's only one way to find out.

I'm rooming with some girl named Excel Excel..
I'd much rather just be alone.
