I am on day 2 of not smoking and it sucks like always. I went to the zoo today to try to feel better. It was cool as hell. Unlike in the US where you can't get closer than 100 yards to the animals, here you can get close as hell. I touched a monkey. We did get yelled at for giving monkeys Bugles. I guess that Bugles aren't part of the typical primate diet. I put up some new pictures so take a look.

I figured tonight I will lay around again and do nothing. Hopefully by Monday I will have all the nicotine out of my system. Oh ya, and today is my little brother's birthday. Holly shit, he is 20. I bet my parents feel old now with 3 kids all in their 20s.

I have come to the conclusion that I need to find a girl here. This week I am going to ask some random girl out. It should be interesting. First off, I don't know if she'll speak English. And secondly I don't know if she will go out with me. You put both of these 2 things together and the chances of me getting a date are...um I'd say "bad to very bad". We'll see what happens.
