Reasons why my friend Sarah is a fatass

Life Lesson, No 6 - 
Is this really a lesson?

Let's make it one:  How not to be a Fatass.

This is done with permission from Sarah.  In fact it was encouraged by her.  Here we go.

Some background.  Last night was the Rifa International Welcoming party for the ryuugakuseitachi.  The day before that was my birthday.  I got some good pictures of Sarah eating food, and then we started talking about Sarah being a fatass.  She started going through a list of why she was a fatass, and we came up with five reasons.  So we ran through a list of five reasons why Sarah is a fatass.

We all live in the dorm by the way.


  1. Sarah keeps a nice box of snacks behind her chair in her room for when she's on the computer and doesn't feel like getting up to search for food.  She doesn't even get out of her chair.
  2. She weighs herself multiple times to make sure the machine isn't trolling her and that her weight is accurate.

  3. She wants other people's food even when she still has her own.




  4. She fights other people for said food.



  5. A first year Japanese college student told her she should join dance to shed a few pounds.

These are not actually serious by the way.  She doesn't actually eat THAT much.  And she's probably not as bad a she says she is with the snacks either.  Though the first year did actually say that, look at her.  If she lost any more weight she would vanish!

Anyways, hope you enjoyed the Friday lesson of the week this time.  As for the lesson.

The key is, do the opposite of what is listed here.  (Except for joining dance.....that's something you should do)

Ciao for Nao~

Life Lesson, No 5

Life Lessons - Japan Style

When Going Shopping Bring Little Cash.

(Make sure you're ready for emergencies though!)


Here's the point of this life lesson.  I got into Hakuouki (薄桜鬼) in February, maybe.  The problem is that there is a great amount of merchandise available for it.  I made the mistake of having around 10000 yen available at the time (I never did this again) and in the process of about 2 months, have managed to purchase all of the above.

The moral?  Keep a tight reign over your pocket.

I've had to keep a real tight reign of my spending money since my scholarship is a month later than it should be, so I've been living off of a few hundred dollars.  Unfortunately, this month also happened to be the most expensive I had in a while.  Lots of stuff to buy.  Anyways.  The point is, pretty merchandise makes me want to purchase.

Ja for now~

Life Lesson, No. 4

Life Lesson 4 - On A Rainy Day, Make sure you have an umbrella handy

Cute guys with cars work too.  (Just don't go with strangers).

Some back story is necessary.  On this day, it was raining at a pretty steady drizzle.  Nothing too bad.  My friends and I were going to badminton that night, so we were just going to walk to badminton and then head back to the dorm, or so we thought.

We ended up invited out with the guys to Cocos.  Problem?  I didn't bring an umbrella, and all I was wearing were shorts.  

Solution, the cutie ex-leader of the badminton circle invited the only three girls (me, and my two friends) into his car to drive us to the place.

~Thank you Cutie~

Life Lessons, No. 3

Life Lesson 3 - Dorm Life is more fun when you talk to people


This picture was taken a few days ago.  We decided to have a fun dorm time after our cleaning (every thursday).

We talked from 10PM till 1 in the morning, and we all had school the next day.

One thing that I must say is: get to know your dorm mates.  It is much more enjoyable when they all want to at least greet you.  You'll probably make friends!
