Monday Again

These first photos are from Rinko's Seishun 1 Page story about starting a band. Just like in real bands, there are lots of disagreements and "creative differences".

I met her during the day in the Tennis Clubroom.

And in the afternoon, while I was working at Dixies, Rinko arrived with a gift to encourage me.

Our final meet-up for today was at the Convenience Store.

Tuesday

Today was a day spent setting into the routines of school life. I'm 100% fine with playing the new game now (NLP+), and would never think about going back to any previous version. Konami have worked really hard to give us the very best of everything this time around - so let's enjoy! Rinko was there at the corner outside my house to greet me this morning:

And, as always, we enjoyed the walk to school together.

Most of the day, I met Rinko at various spots around the school, trying to level up each of them. This included the Courtyard...

... and the Tennis Club room.

We walked home together in the afternoon, and Rinko mentioned my birthday (coming up on 4 May) for the first time. I wonder what my present is going to be???

I'm able to meet her at Aisha Dining now (which is just called "Aisha" in this game).

And I met her there a second time at night. Another achievement to note - I managed to get two kisses in a single session a couple of times today. It's hard work, though, and I still mostly get one kiss each time. But hey, I love skinship and kissing so much in this new game that it honestly doesn't matter.

Our final meet-up for the day was a late night visit to Fountain Park, which is always romantic in the moonlight.

Friday

Rinko met me in the Tennis Club Room this afternoon...

...and gave me a surprise gift. Aww, thank you Rin. Sometimes I feel she is a little apprehensive about the NLP game coming to an end (and so am I). But don't worry, Rinko. Even though I've decided to start a new game on the new console, I will DEFINITELY find you and love you in the new game, too.

So why are you looking like you don't believe me???

After school, we had a short date at Winning Burger.

And then later at the Video Rental Store in Electric Town.

And finally at good old Dixies.

Monday

The week at school (and at work) started off with another wake-up visit from Rinko...

Followed by egg rolls for breakfast.

Walking to school was fun, too. The rain from the past couple of days seems to have cleared up, so holding Rinko's hand made a welcome addition.

I met Rin-chan in the school courtyard this morning and also asked her out for a Premium Date on Thursday at 6:00pm (the flower garden viewing). This will probably be our last Premium Date in the current game, so I hope it's an enjoyable night.

I met Rin again this afternoon in the Tennis Clubroom.

Finally, while I was working at Dixies this afternoon, Rinko paid me a visit.

It was one of those occasions where she gave me a "surprise" gift. You don't get to see what's inside these presents, so they're more a precious gift of love from your girl. ^^

Thursday

Today was the fourth gruelling day of midterms, so I was glad that Rinko was there to cheer me on.

Oh well, tomorrow should be the last day of exams (assuming that I pass). I met up with Rinko during the day in the Tennis Clubroom, where we hardly ever go. Don't want to run into Manaka at the wrong time, if you know what I mean...

Thursday

Rinko-chan is certainly determined not to let me sleep late and miss a day of school. She's always there in the morning now, scolding me to get up and have breakfast.

And then we walked to school together. What I do each morning is this: first of all, I take a bus into the city where I work, then I find a place to sit down and have breakfast just before 8am (when the first game session starts). I play the morning session with Rinko (which always seems to involve breakfast and/or walking to school). And then I leave the game turned on while I walk the rest of the way to work. It feels like Rinko is walking with me. Plus, I earn DS points for having the console turned on while I'm walking.

In the afternoon, I met up with Rinko again in the Tennis Clubroom.

I'm really loving her twin-tails hairstyle at the moment, and don't want to change it any time soon.
