Well it's been a few months...time for an update I guess.
Started school again in April. Golden week was fun. Zach and Alana came down to Hiroshima so it was nice to see people from home again. I went to Tottori and Kobe, and thankfully didn't catch any swine flu while I was there, although it was all over the news and everyone had masks. I only have a little over 2 months left here :( but I really just want to get this semester over with already. We have midterms now so I've been pretty busy.
Registering for fall semester at UH was shitty. But I ended up getting all the classes I need to take next semester except one.
EALL372B- Modern fiction
JPN350- Japanese Linguistics
JPB407E- Fiction
MICR130 (thankfully this will be the last science class I have to take).
Anyway I'm not sure when I will be coming home yet. I'm taking a standby flight so hopefully I will be back sometime in the week before school starts.
Tottori Sakyu, Kobe Harbor, Mt.Rokko Pasture, Mt.Shosha:

春休み

Well I'm finally back in Saijo after being home for a month and traveling for 10 days. Spring semester starts in a couple weeks so I have nothing to do here. Uploading pics to facebook soon. I went to Tokyo, Nikko, Yokohama, Himeji and revisited Kyoto. Overall the trip was totally worth it, except when our train was an hour late on our (10 hour) journey to Kyoto =/
It still feels like winter here (it's still in the 30s...wtf?!) but hopefully more sakura will be blooming by next week.
Shibuya, Lake Chuzenji and Kiyomizudera:

Well spring break is almost here! I'm finally done with at least one of my classes, but I still have 3 more finals, 2 next week and one the week after.
We've been getting some snow in the past couple of weeks but not enough to actually build a snowman or to prevent me from riding my bike, which is good, but I'm hoping to see some good snow before I leave.
So in the past few weeks I've: visited Iwakuni, went bowling in Saijo (cheap! 500-yen a game with cool automated shoe dispensers), niku-no-hi, manekineko x2, and bought my plane ticket to tokyo (almost 10,000-yen cheaper than shinkansen =/) so I'm pretty broke now. Won't be getting my scholarship money for another 2 weeks so I'm trying to live off 10,000-yen until then.

Winter break is over...
I've done a lot of traveling in the past few weeks and I'm actually glad to be back in Saijo. Beppu and Kumamoto before Xmas, Osaka, Nara and Kyoto for new years. And I'm so broke I'm happy I'm getting my scholarship money on Friday. I actually still have one space left on my seishun 18 ticket so hopefully I'll be going to Himeji next week.
Well only a month left of school before finals and 5 weeks till I go home and start spring break. It feels weird that we'll only be in school for a month and then we have a 2 month long vacation before our spring semester starts.
Kyushu trip pics have been uploaded to facebook. Kansai photos will be uploaded eventually. Just a few pics:

I'm so happy I'm finally done with midterms! I technically still have class on Monday but I'm skipping class to travel.
So tomorrow I'm planning to go in to the city to do some last minute shopping and then I'm off to Beppu and Kumamoto on Saturday morning. I leave at 6:30 and will be on a train for a good 12 hours or so =/ but I'm sure it will be worth it. Next Friday I'm going to Osaka, Kyoto and Nara till Janurary and I will probably be really broke by the time I get back to Saijo :(
I guess I will update this soon when I have stuff that's worth writing about.
