It's been snowing like crazy here in my little town. I took this photo as I was leaving my elementary school this afternoon. Thank God I was able to get home. My school today was on top of a mountain.
I had a fun day with my friend P from the same hometown in Canada today. We both arrived in Japan at the same time back in July last year. I feel so close to her. I told her everything about me and that made me more comfortable being with her. We went to see a taiko (Japanese drums) concert in her city which is just next to mine. I really enjoy the sound of the taiko but I was falling asleep at some point since some of the beats were so redundant.
We went to a pasta restaurant before that. She took me to a lot of places. We went shopping... Well, I only bought a birthday gift for a friend. After the concert, we went to a nice izakaya (Japanese-style pub) and we had a bunch of fatty but delicious Japanese izakaya food, and then we went to karaoke for 2 hours where we sang our hearts out... sadly enough, the two hour karaoke was not enough for the two of us... haha. And oh, we also went to get "purikura" (sticker pictures) of the two of us... Japan is just amazing with all these funky stuff!
I feel a lot less homesick recently and so I've been a lot more motivated these days, thanks to the birthday party my friends here gave me 2 weeks ago. I realized I could still have a lot of fun over here in Japan and that I have friends who care for me here... and so, on Friday, I signed my recontracting form which meant that I will be staying here in Japan until July of 2007.
あくな言あん実なんとのさく to two people this past month - P and another friend R. They both took it very well. R 一な友な非やぐ who I have been hanging out quite a lot recently. かみな話とのまなあいあいなばひなんしゃな頼あくけんあく在な愛あいなばひ... I didn't want to lie to him and soあくな言さきゃとの実なん. しゃ非 shocked at all... actually, nothing changed さみん二. I was expectingしゃま avoid あくでもじじ... He was actually さところく再な眠. I was actually much more surprised なんしゃな眠さ同なベッド as it was very cold さへじゃくさ夜なよん and I didn't have enough かぱるな sheets なぱ暖ため. Nope, nothing happened. だひあく非しら relationship けんかみ. He's a good friend of mine.
Oh, I bought a second hand guitar for 6,000 yen (approx. 60 CAD). I have been playing a lot recently. R actually taught me some techniques in remembering more complicated chords.
OK, I better go to bed. I leave you with a recent funny English discovery today at the supermarket. Would you like a bite of my Asse? haha:
