What a day! It was raining so hard this morning and I broke my iPod headphones because I ran over them with my bike and then I got so soaked on the way to school. So my feet were freezing the whole day.
This week, we have exams at school. They wanted me to try the math exam, so I receive it and it's all in kanji. I understand something about 9 cards and taking out 7 or something like that, but that's it. So I just sat there for 50 minutes in blissful ignorance. Then I took English reading, and that was easy. Except sometimes I don't remember which preposition goes with what idiom/expression now. Oh, well.
Then I had a free period and me and Laurent and Max watched Resident Evil in French in the International Office. Well, they were. I was reading some book in French that Laurent had and it was kinda funny but I only read one chapter because I am currently reading Hemingway's "For Whom the Bells Toll" or is it "For Whom the Bell Tolls?" Whatever. Something about bell(s) and tolling. I'm only at the beginning, but it's pretty good.
Then I went out for lunch with Kei and Sakiko. We went to a really cheap Chinese restaurant near school. It was so good and so much fun! Then we went to the post office to change some last US dollars I had and there we randomly met Addison, Laurent, and Max. Max was mailing a package to France. They went off to do karaoke, but me Kei and Sakiko went off to Starbucks. We were all like "Ok we're gonna study and read!" But we just ended up talking the whole time. Do they have the creme brulee latte in US Starbucks? Because they definitely have it here and I think I'm in love with it.
Kei and Sakiko and I are going to church together on Sunday. (Yes! Advent season!) Then after that, we're gonna help the church give out clothes and food to the homeless.
Anyway, then they went home to actually study and I ran into Addison who was on his way to meet Josefa and then we met Josefa and then we ran into Max and Laurent again at the train station and then Max left and then we met some really random weird old guy at McDonalds... wow, do I have stories for the grandchildren!
Ok I'm enter into the ofuro now. The ofuro is the Japanese bathtub and it's amazing. It is the type of bath where everyone shares the same water (not at the same time, goodness gracious, that's an onsen). It's not really disgusting because you take a shower beforehand. I guess you could technically just say furo, but I've never heard that and it just sounds really rude to me. (The o- means respect)
Tomorrow is my Home Ec exam. I might actually may able to do that!
