Start with wednesday. Morning wake up just in time to get to the grammar exam, then run to the other side of the campus for health check. There i naturally fainted after they took my blood, but this time i told them in advance about the problem so made me lie down beforehand. Lay down, took blood, next memory waking up there with a ringing in the ear and a “where the holy hell am i?” (yeah, even hell occurred before the blood sampling) thought in head. They were not sure how and what to, because i was out of line with going there earlier because of some reason detailed later in this post. At least i now know that then i was roughly 65 kilos (expected more), 179 cm (expected more) and that ten minutes and four-five examinations after the blood sampling (when i already felt alright), my blood pressure was still around 80/40 (at least i recall these numbers). Of course after i got free my first way was to the kombini and bought a Snickers and a Coke. Then ran off to Ikebukuro to begin my adventure…
I got dreadlocks. It took a lot of organizing, hell a lot of money and i sat eleven hours in one place. Was a relief to stand up, with my head covered in dreads. The shop people were really nice, we talked a lot, nice language practice. Hiro, a japanese friend helped a lot, without his help this couldn’t have been accomplished. He fixed a lot of stuff for me, lead me there and everything. He even got me the new album, 45°↗ of Sex Machineguns as birthday present (not to mention, limited edition). I was and am lost for words to express my gratitude. It was almost midnight when (roughly two hours the shop closed for everyone else) my hair was finished. I got the last train, bought dinner (lunch) in Sukiya (before that i only had breakfast, that Snickers and a few candies) then joined the remains of a cocktail party in the second dorm. Went to sleep around four, woke up at eight, then came the trip to Yamato, Yamanashi…
