My Pocket Pikachu Diary

 

~ Part 2 ~

 

Date End of Day Steps Activities
Friday, August 14, 1998 301,859 Surpassed 300,000 steps today. Pikachu is staying up later now. He was taking a bubble bath (instead of a shower) at 8:10pm. At 8:20 he brushed his teeth. After that he watched a little TV, then played with a cute little radio-controlled car!
Saturday, August 15, 1998 308,859 Except for eating lunch and brushing his teeth, Pikachu hasn't been doing any of his usual daily activities all morning. All he's done is look back at me. However, at 12:45pm I checked on him, and he just stood there, happily swaying back and forth with the happy heart over his head, so I guess he's okay. :-) Later I found him studying for the first time: he sits at a little table and reads a book. At 4pm I checked, and he was playing with a yo-yo!
Tuesday, August 18, 1998 317,667 When Pikachu is studying, you can tap the case or shake it once, and you will see what is going on in class! I did this in the late morning, and found that the teacher was talking about pyramids in the desert, but Pikachu envisioned the sand and beach where he plays! Another time I checked to see how he was doing, shaking it once; and the teacher posed the math question:  9+2=?  , but poor little Pikachu only had a ? over his head then. Saw Pikachu on a *skateboard* when he was walking with me today!
Saturday, September 5, 1998 405,369 Pikachu seems to have a lot of interesting modes of transportation when keeping up with you when you walk! Today I saw him on STILTS!
Thursday, September 24, 1998 454,300 Pikachu was asleep in class this morning! I shook the case, and he woke up in a hurry! I shook the case again to see what class he was in: English! Later this morning I checked to see what he was up to: he was playing the piano. :-)
Sunday, October 4, 1998 507,885 Today I saw Pikachu using a computer! Of course he's so short, his chair is almost level with the computer table ::grin::
Saturday, April 3, 1999 992,921 Pikachu hasn't been doing anything new, other than some of the activities he used to do in response to gifts of watts, he does on his own now and then. :-)  I thought I should write, as it's getting near the time (999,999 steps) when Pikachu will be leaving me. I am not looking forward to it.
Wednesday, April 7, 1999 (Jackie Chan's birthday!) 1,000,000 When it got really close to 999,999 steps, I did the last few hundreds by swinging the case like a pendulum, to the music of October Project's 2d album, "Falling Farther In". Then when he was just a few steps away from 1,000,000, I called the rest of the household in, so we could witness together Pikachu's accomplishment and goodbye. According to Shou Tsurugi's "Wake of Pocket Pikachu" page (which seems to be gone now), mine now has the little message box that says, "Congratulations!? You have reached 1,000,000 steps. Your record is 7111 hours." I am *thinking* of starting Pikachu up again.......         :-)
