Man, what a day! Seriously, I can’t even. So, I’m the head of this lab, right? And today was just... wow. Nakashibetsu, you’ve outdone yourself.
First off, I woke up late. Classic me. Alarm didn’t go off. I’m sprinting down the street, and let me tell ya, Nakashibetsu’s streets are no joke. I’m talking about the narrow lanes of Kiyokawa and the bustling vibe of the main drag, like, what’s it called? Oh yeah, Route 244. I’m dodging cyclists and old ladies like it’s an Olympic sport.
Finally, I get to the lab, and guess what? My team’s already in a frenzy. Apparently, some samples went missing. Missing! Like, how does that even happen? I’m fuming. I mean, we’re in Nakashibetsu, not some wild west town. I’m pacing around, trying to keep my cool, but inside, I’m like a volcano ready to blow.
Then, outta nowhere, my assistant, Yuki, bursts in. She’s got this wild look in her eyes. “Boss! You won’t believe this!” I’m thinking, “Oh great, what now?” Turns out, she found the samples. They were in the fridge. The fridge! I mean, who puts important stuff in the fridge? I’m just glad we didn’t accidentally mix them with lunch. Can you imagine? “Hey, is that a blood sample or my bento?”
So, I’m relieved, right? But then, I step outside for a breather. Nakashibetsu’s got this chill vibe, but today? It’s like the weather’s in on the chaos. It’s sunny one minute, then BAM! Rain. I’m soaked in seconds. I’m standing there, looking like a drowned rat, and I can’t help but laugh. Like, really? This is my life?
I decide to grab a coffee at this cute little café on Nakashibetsu’s main street. It’s called “Kawaii Café” or something. I walk in, dripping wet, and the barista just stares at me. I’m like, “Yeah, I’m the head of a lab, not a wet dog.” I order a latte, and while I’m waiting, I notice this adorable cat chilling on the counter. I mean, who doesn’t love a cat? It’s like a little fluffy therapist.
After my caffeine fix, I head back to the lab. Things are calmer now. We’re running tests, and I’m feeling good. But then, I get a call. It’s the city council. They want to discuss funding. I’m like, “Oh boy, here we go.” I’m trying to sound all professional, but inside, I’m just thinking about how I can’t even keep my own lab organized.
The meeting’s at the Nakashibetsu City Hall. I get there, and it’s this big, fancy building. I’m still in my lab coat, looking like a mad scientist. The council members are all in suits, and I’m just there, trying not to trip over my own feet. They start talking about budgets and grants, and I’m zoning out. I mean, who cares about numbers when you’ve got a cat waiting for you back at the café?
Finally, I manage to pitch our project. I’m all passionate, waving my hands around. I’m like, “We can make a difference!” And they’re nodding, but I can see some of them are just thinking about lunch. I’m like, “Dude, focus!”
After what feels like an eternity, they approve the funding! I’m ecstatic! I’m practically dancing out of there. I mean, Nakashibetsu, you’re treating me right today!
I head back to the lab, and my team’s celebrating. We’re high-fiving, and I’m just soaking in the good vibes. But then, I remember the cat. I rush back to the café, and guess what? The cat’s gone! I’m like, “Noooo! Where’s my fluffy therapist?”
Turns out, the barista took it home. I’m bummed, but hey, at least I had a wild day. Nakashibetsu, you’re a rollercoaster. I’m exhausted, but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Here’s to more crazy days ahead!
