I had a lovely birthday on the weekend. It continues to be strange to be celebrating without my family, but I had a very fun night out regardless. Thank you Eishirou and Yuujirou for coming drinking with me, even if it didn't end in the best of ways.

~~I'm keeping the footage of Eishirou at KFC forever.~~

I think my favourite present was the snuggie I got from my sister, to help me stay warm for the end of winter. Maybe one day I'll acclimatise to Tokyo.

I've been needing to get out more, before semester starts again and I have less of a social life. I went to the Sumida Aquarium earlier this week - a lovely date spot, if anyone needed ideas. I've also been frequenting various cake shops around the city.

Just a few weeks of freedom left.

My default go to is strawberry shortcake. But I always try the interesting looking limited edition ones, just in case.

Just have to watch the waist line.

OH! I make a really good one, you can ask Akaya. I'll save you some next time I make it.

Hmmmmmm.... lots of water, tennis and gym. There is always the D word (_　_|||)...

Oh how generous. Do I need to give you something in return?

... I suspect we may be thinking about different words starting with D. Unless you have a particular aversion to sex?

Nope ~ I'm used to just... feeding people. I have two little brothers and very busy parents, so growing up I looked after them, cooking, baking... I like it. Besides, I couldn't possibly eat all the cake I bake.

( p_q) .... NOT THAT D! Diabetes <---

Fair enough. I only recently had to learn how to cook, it's certainly been an experience.

Oh. Well that's slightly more clear. Although you do burn calories from sex.

It has to happen eventually. Don't you like it?

I always day 'D' word meaning diabetes, maybe I should be more careful. It's kinda an exercise too, but not like tennis. You probably burn a lot more with tennis.

Not particularly. I don't really enjoy my own cooking.

Ah... I stopped playing tennis quite a few years ago.

Because it doesn't taste good? It will improve if you keep at it.

Then maybe a lot of cake is not a good idea.... only if you exercise a lot elsewhere~

I just don't enjoy it. I much prefer other people cooking for me.

There are definitely many other types of exercise, Marui-kun. I only played tennis for a few years ago, it wasn't particularly difficult to stop.

I'll keep that in mind (^_-)-☆

I didn't know, I thought you were into it like Kite was.

You could join Keigo and myself in An-chan‘s cooking lessons

Me or Hirakoba?

You are of course welcome as well Marui-kin, but I doubt you require classes.

I'll pass~ It's quite far, otherwise why not, I like cooking.

Well, our team in junior high was originally recruited because we'd all done martial arts since we were children, not for any actual skill or interest in tennis. Eishirou is just... very convincing.

I never knew that! I knew about the martial art, that you all practiced, but I thought you met because of tennis. He must be, if he got you all to play it, it's such a demanding sport.

Not at all, we were specifically scouted by Eishirou. I think he spent a lot of elementary school writing down names of participants at the various tournaments and seeing which of us ended up at Higa.

That being said, to excel at karate, I think it's just as demanding, if not more so, than tennis. Not that it really matters, I'm quite out of practice with both.

And you said he wasn't that hard to figure out.

But yeah, you're right. Any physical sport is demanding if you wan to excel, I suppose. I don't like physical work ( ;¬_¬) so I couldn't dedicate so much if I wasn't really into it.

He isn't hard to figure out. I just haven't really asked him, nor do I really care that much, how he picked us all as good martial artists. Given how much data he has of us though, I wouldn't be surprised.

I suppose, if excelling in a sport is what you want to do...
