Well for those that aren't familiar, in Japan we have to change our shoes when coming into the high school, we have a pair of schools that we only use inside the high school and another pair only for inside the gym... but back to the matter at hand... I am somewhat worried about myself, which is never a good start... this morning for the first time in the whole 10-11 months of being here I totally forgot about changing shoes and while walking to the canteen to order lunch about half hour ago I noticed my shoes were making a strange noise, i looked down and was shocked to see that I was still wearing my out door shoes!! I quickly looked around to see if anyone had noticed (stupid I know) but its a big no no in Japan! Of course no one noticed so I trotted along to the canteen to order my lunch thinking of a way to discretely change my shoes without anyone noticing my bad... (my shoe locker is in front of the office so people would notice :p) After coming back from the canteen I slipped out the side door and went down to buy a drink from one of the many vending machines we have on the road side just outside the school.
On my way down I was trying to figure out how I could've forgotten to change my shoes and then it dawned on me... I couldn't even remember walking into school this morning!! I remember parking my scooter and walking into the staff room, but the time in between that I have no recollection of!! (yay slowly slipping further and further into insanity.. but at least i know for sure that other people don't experience the same things eg. Gareth ;) ) so I bought my new addiction (Pepsi twist (with the lemon twist)) figuring I need the caffeine, but i don't feel particularly tired... oh well, so that is my morning stupidity update so far.
