January 3 - Dylan's Tough Day

My first night in Mt. Komorebi was not the best. I found a bench near my "home base" and napped fitfully on and off. At one point, I went back to the Hazakura Lounge, but didn't go in, and instead went to a street vendor and tried to haggle for some food. It did not go well.

I had $4 simoleons to my name, and that sprig of parsley, but the vendor was not budging on the price. So, I bought the cheapest item, some tri-color dango (Japanese dumplings on a stick) for $2 simoleons. My first taste of local fare.

But the vendor seemed to be in a hurry to close, and I set the plate down at her stall for just a second to break apart some wooden chopsticks, and she closed the overhead door right on my food. I shouted at her that my food was stuck under her overhead door, but she just waved to me and walked away. Sheesh! $2 simoleons spent with no food to show for it. I didn't want to go back into the lounge to get some chips, in case any sims would ask what I was doing there, so I decided to wander down to the waterfront to see if any food had been left at the picnic table. There was none. At that point, I was so exhausted, hungry, and...oh gosh...had this green aura around me and smelled really bad...that I just collapsed on the sand.

I woke up early and went back to the Hazakura Lounge in the morning. I washed up in the restroom as best as I could, and headed to school. We all wore uniforms to school, which was fine by me, as I had worn a uniform at my old school, too. The day passed by quickly and I came home with homework, a project and a poster that I had "borrowed" from school. I needed to spruce up my surroundings. Yeah...well, with no walls, it was hard to hang up the poster. So I'll just keep it for now. It was worth $65 simoleons.

A neighbor stopped by, Kiyoshi Ito, who I recognized from my school. We got on rather well, and he asked me if I wanted to go skiing later on. I was just about to answer when I noticed a familiar figure walking down the pathway to my lot. Oh my gosh! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that hottie, Bella Goth, from the lounge last night, coming to visit me. I'm not sure how she found out where I lived, or maybe she was just taking a stroll around the neighborhood and saw me.

I was in the middle of showing Kiyoshi some photos I took around Mt. Komorebi when Bella came up to us.

I was thinking that maybe Bella could help me with my school project, but my body had other plans. And Boom, I passed out again. Yeah, way to go on how to impress someone by passing out when they visit. Not a very smooth move.

I did wake up later, but, by then, they were both gone. So much for going skiing. But luckily for me, Naoki Ito, who I found out was Kiyoshi's father, and who I had met at the Hazakura Lounge the night before, came by and I asked him to help me with the project. I think he might have finished most of it, because I kept passing out from lack of sleep. Anyway, at least the project was done.

With the project miraculously finished, I walked to the Hazakura Lounge, changed, washed up a bit and headed to the nearest couch and promptly fell asleep.

When I woke up, I sidled over to the bar, where it was the same bartender as last night, and she thankfully remembered that I hadn't returned for my free chips.

You know, I can honestly say that chips never tasted so good.
