Outrage Fail

So today I decided that I wanted to go and watch this new movie called Outrage. It has Beat Takeshi in it as well as several other "menancing" actors who have been cast for evil or Yakuza type roles in other films. The thing is, I had gone to sleep at 4am that morning. I ate, got on the train, etc., but in the end I didn't make it. I ended up killing time by hanging around Shibuya. What a loser. Hopefully tomorrow I can make this movie excursion happen.

In the evening before dinner, I went to a local Blockbuster-ish place called Tsutaya to rent some DVD's. The reason they're different is because they're more of a Blockbuster-Barnes & Nobles hybrid, selling manga, magazines, novels, CD's, etc. in addition to DVD's. I picked up Oceans 13 and Smokin Aces 2. Hopefully they're not that bad.....

Fat People Lazy (oops forgot the "are")

Alright so I realize I haven't posted much since a couple weeks ago. I just got lazy I guess, but a lot of things have happened. I went on a trip to the Mt.Fuji area with a friend from Hawaii, visited Akihabara, Ginza, checked out a bunch of music stores, etc. A big thing though, was that I underwent nasal surgery. It was pretty minor and involved cutting some nerves in my right nostril as well as removing some inflamed turbinate tissue. I've had sinus problems since I was little, and I knew that I would have to fix it once and for all eventually, but I always put it off. One thing that sucked was that they had to insert an IV in my left arm, but the nurse couldn't find my vein. So she kept digging around and around until finally the surgeon himself came in and found a vein in the back of my hand that did the job. They used full-body anesthesia on me, and before I realized it, I was lying on a bed in the recovery room feeling......high. I didn't have to stay the night, but I have to have cotton stuffed deep in my nose for a week, as well as take pain medication, antibiotics, and various sprays at least two times a day. Even worse, my sense of smell and therefore taste has become reduced, making otherwise wonderful food taste bland. In addition, I have to come back for another operation next year to treat my left sinus as well as fix a crooked bone that is a root cause of my problems. When all of this is finished, hopefully I will do better in school because of the reduced irritation.

There are many photos that I haven't posted on here because of bandwidth issues or because I was lazy. You can view them all on my facebook account at http://www.facebook.com/james.ezuka I currently have three albums of my trip to Japan, and it's still growing.
