Getting Married!

Not me, but my friend June will be! And to think she was the quietest of the group when we were still in college. Life can really drum up some pretty neat surprises in just a few years, ne?

Within the group, it was usually the two of us who were almost always together. We agree on the same things, have the same interests -- anime and sketching to name just a few -- and we have the same fascination for the satirically dismal humor in things, only, June is able to take it to more... disturbingly morbid levels (Goddess knows where she gets her ideas from). Most of all, she's... different. A quality in which I pride my closest friends to be. And now our fragile little China doll is getting married!

I'm still a little hazy at believing, much less think of little June carbon copies bounding about in a room -- of which, if I envision too much, might promptly cause me to faint from the sheer kawaii-ness of it all. Still, amidst the pleasantly dizzying reality of everything, this is no doubt an in-your-face sign that we -- that is, the kids belonging in our generation -- are growing up, and that we are taking on Responsibilities the Universe unerringly, unceasingly throws our way. Scary, to say the least. But we have little choice in the matter, ne?


Me, stuffing my face at Hatsu Hana-Tei with June, lunchtime today. I love their lunch special! Anywhere I point my chopsticks to, there's something to poke at. It took us a whole hour -- maybe more -- to finish everything!
