Absence made my chocolate buzz extreme . . .
Oh the Chocolate Bean .. how I love thee . . let me count the ways . . .
I seem to have some weird metabolism that doesn't seem to work well on normal food but if I only eat chocolate is in peak form! I cite the week after my faux 21st when I ate the remains of the yummy cake made by Chris for berkkie, lunch and dinner . . . my recent trip back to Ads which was featured significantly regular visits to The Bean along with many many Soy Chai Lattes . . . and bike riding.
Have just been speaking online to my (one of, and the one featured above - I believe this was our belated Valentines date!) Lady of the 'laide as well as Keiko (in Japanese) in China . . . the wonders of msn!
I am back in Japan and now with my host family! It's amazing and I am so glad I made this decision. I now have a new teacher who is 7 years old and one of the best I have ever had! I also have a little play thing in the shape of an adorable and smiley little 1 year old. I walk 25 minutes everyday to the elevated light rail stop (the past two days in torrential rain) and catch a 25 minutes train out to school. I have already received one home made obento and it was the best!
The parents are lovely and the mum is a piano teacher who specialised in western music at university so the house is full of music. She was also announcer on tv in the past and is gorgeous in face and spirit! The dad is always off early and home late but lots of fun and friendly when around.
Hope they live me as much as I like them!
Classes seem to be working out okay but I have yet to have to hit my straps and am have been allowed to take Advanced Japanese this semester! This means that I am generally the only white face to been seen but I'm here to work hard so here I go and hope I don't die in the process!
Ahh! So busy!
Already!
Staying with Maki was brilliant.
Seen lots of sakura already - many photos for the posting but must rush off now because I have to hand in my subject choices form and head off to 花見 (はなみ hanami) sakura (cherry blossom) viewing picnic! (generally involving lots of alcomihol～)
