Mission Japanese Acclamaion Status:proceeding...

Ok that was werid... I was typing and the damn thing went ot the dashboard and I have to start over again. I'll try to keep this one a similar as possible. Anyway I hada d ream teh otehr day that Jake came to visit us in Japan and when he came into my room he said, "damn what is with all this stuff?" Which I responded, " being into all this stuff and living in Japan, wouldn't it be weird if I didn't have all this stuff?" He agreed and I can't remember the rest of the dream but it's true, I do have a lot of stuff in my room. From stuffed animals (dragonball Z) Neon Genesis Evangelion figurines, Kenshin stuff, and Naruto everywhere in my room I have acheived the feat of bringing my room from Hawaii to Japan. I guess I just feel comfortable with all these "eyes" looking at me. Its the same as Krystal, she feels more comfortable in pink so guess what? Her whole apartment is pink. So getting used to the weather, japanese people, and language I guess one can say that I am becoming acclamated to the Japanese culture, not to say that Hawaii has lots of Japanese culture.

So anyway I received a care package from home the otehr day. It had DVDs, anti-virus program, spyware blocker, clothes, and soem li hing powder. What I didn't expect was to fidn that my mom threw clothes in that I ddin't take to Japan. So when I opened the box is smelled like home. Not being home home for over 3 months makes you realize this. Among the DVDs was the Star Wars Trilogy. Finally came!! One thing that was a little disappointing was that I asked for FRIENDS season 1 and 2, and what I got was the best of FRIENDS seasons 1 and 2. I was expecting the whoel season but Krystal told me not to omplain, which she was right. I AM VERY GRATEFUL FOR THE CARE PACKAGE. I might have to send the DVDs back but I thought that they would make really good Christmas gifts.

I figured out what holiday was yesterday... it's CULTURE DAY!! Isn't that cool? We don't got to work because the whole country is embracing their culture. Which is kind of weird to me because I haven't been anywhere in my life where it's been this cultural. They freak out when I tell them that I can use chopsticks. "Wow, you can use chopsticks? You eat rice everyaday? You know how to write Japanese? You know how to eat Japanese food?" The many questions that I get on a daily basis. WEIRD...

Other than that nothing much happening on "this" island. Update on 24, we've gotten to hour 21 in about 5 days. Do we watch a lot of T.V. or what? No more or less than back home...

BREAK IT DOWN!
