I know I said I would be posting about fashion and shopping, but it might be a bit before I get to that. In the meantime, I wanted to note that I changed my layout, finally! The picture is of the Shinto shrine we visited during our last field trip to Shikoku.
I also uploaded some more pictures. There aren`t as many as last time, though, so don`t worry.
Awaji Island and Shikoku - Here are pictures from our field trip from a couple weekends ago. Here you can see pictures of us making udon, which is a type of Japanese noodle (and is very good), a Bunraku puppet, the aforementioned Shinto Shrine, and pictures on a bus, among other things. There are also a couple pictures of not-so-strong whirlpools.
Birthday! - Here are things from my birthday, including a trip to Kobe Steel for Business class (those are the hard-hat pictures), dinner with my host family, cake tabehoudai on Friday and then drinking afterwards.
Here are some albums I forgot to put up last time, though they were already uploaded:
Japanese-ish Things - Here you can see the giant group calligraphy we did in Art History class, as well as ikebana, Japanese cooking, Noh theatre and some views from my bedroom.
Orientation - Here are a few pics from orientation right after I arrived. There are views of Kobe, some pictures of people doing kempo and kendo, and other random things.
That`s it for now!
