Dumb & Dumber

I took a day off on Monday to meet my friend "Miwako" who visited Tokyo with her family from Nagasaki, Japan. Last time I met her, she was pregnant with her first baby. The baby is now 12 years old, and it is the first time seeing her since then. We both got old, but I feel like I've gone back in time soon after I met her. She was my first housemate when I started living in Seattle. I have a lots of memories with her. She is one of my good friend who made my college life in Seattle happily.

One of our memory while we were staying at our host family's house is a Christmas day. On Christmas day, our host family went out for the Christmas party or dinner together,so we were alone at home. Our image of Christmas in America was fun and warm...but the day was the same as usual for us. We didn't want to spend our first Christmast in Seattle at home, so we took a bus and went to the movie. I don't remember exactly, but we were the only passengers in a bus... We watched the movie "Dumb & Dumber."  The movie was very funny, but we both felt it is not the Christmas we imagined. Everytime we talked about our host family, we remember the day. I guess we became a good friend because we shared the same memories while we were staying in a same house. We did so many things together, and we were just like Dumb& Dumber.:)

We had the lunch at Mitsukoshi department in Ginza and got the cakes at Laduree. Later, she stopped by my apt and we talked a lot until she left.

She brought me a potato caramel from Nagasaki as a souvenior. Somthing crunchy is in a caramel(it could be potato chips), and it was so good! Thanks, Miwako-han.

I really felt it would be very fun if she lives near my apt. I don't know when I can see  "Damber" next time, but I am sure our friendship will last forever.
