Updates

So a few updates… or rather one major one…

On Saturday I went to Dundrum shopping centre for the first time… it’s quite a cool big shopping centre. I didn’t find anything though… but the reason why I was there wasn’t for shopping anyway. Noooo… I was there for a Laser Eye Surgery consultation. Aaaaand… I am suitable 🙂 So I am having Laser Eye Surgery done on the 9th of April. I am so excited!!! It costs a fortune though so I’ll be broke for the rest of the year. I am paying 2000 Euro deposit and the rest over 10 months interest free installments. But I’ll be able to see! I am so excited! :-))

Also there was this really cool Sushi place in the shopping centre (Nadine grins at Takezo). It was like this conveyer belt and it had little covered bowls on it with different size Sushi portions in it. The bowls all had different colours and each colour displayed a different price. So you could take as many bowls as you want and in the end they counted your bowls and your drinks and you were charged accordingly. What a great idea!!!! :-)) However, I didn’t have sushi that day. I wanted something warm so I had a Chicken teriyaki and afterwards these cute little pancakes for dessert. It was really delicious (or rather Oishii 🙂 ) I thought it was just such a cool idea. I wonder if this is a common thing in Japan. The restaurant was called Yo Sushi. Highly recommended.

Other news… well I am waiting for my educational reimbursement from work. It’s around 2800 Euro… which I really need for the deposit… so I am reeeally hoping that it will come through on Friday with my wages… *fingers crossed*

Hmmm… other news….. got good feedback in work for a few things… so things are going well 🙂

Just thinking… anything else…. don’t think so. Just going to Rome in a few days… yay… 24th of March I’ll be there! :-))

Best way to descibe the airport is – unhelpful. Though if you are only ending and starting a journey there, it could be ok. I’ve only ever got connections there. I went through 2 years with Lol where I got my hair cut like 4 times. So if you average the cost out, its not much! (thats my justification anyway!)

i’ve seen restaurants like that on TV in Japan i think, i thought it made a lot of sense too!

I got my eyes fixed there 2 years ago. It’s not the most comfortable expierence but well worth it after. no more peeling dry bits of plastic from your eyes at the end of the night. There’s a place in town that does Sushi for really cheap at the end of the day, it’s close to tower records. you have to be there for like half 10 i think. it’s been ages but i remember loving it.

Oh that’s brill about the surgery! I got it done last September and it’s the best thing I ever did. Are you doing it with Ultralase? That’s who I did mine with and they were lovely. I have to go back for repeat surgery on my left eye though because it isn’t holding the improvement I got from the surgery, but even with that it’s still the best thing I ever did.
