cold...
uurrghhh its getting so coooolllldd. ><; i am so dreading another winter here... Japan needs to fkin use insulation when building homes/apartments damnit. i`ve already caught my first cold of what i deem to be part of the winter season. i dont care if it`s officially still fall. ><; trying to fight off this cold and stay warm... biking to Kera hasn`t been helping my cold any... i really need to go winter accessory shopping.
anyway... yesterday i went to Kera and today i went to Otsu (J.H.S. x2). i wore all black and orange both days and carried around a jack-o-lantern pail/bucket-thing and black cat doll just as i did last year and like last year the black cat was a hit. D; students are so fascinated by a black cat doll with orange rope-legs... anyway, predictably, i was asked to do a short talk on halloween at the beginning of every class i went to and i was also asked to do halloween-related activities in some. all of the halloween stuff went well at both schools. :]
this weekend is a 3-day weekend! i JUST realized this at work this morning lol... in a bit i will be heading out to watercircle`s place to spend the night and make yummy pumpkin soup before heading out with her tomorrow morning to a place called Otsuki in Kochi-ken to see a cosmos flower-viewing festival. i`ll be back saturday night to begin my 2-day sleep-in, study, sleep-in, study routine.
god, i cant wait until the JLPT is done and over with... having studied for almost a year now, i want nothing more than to throw all my JLPT books into the river behind my apartment and start enjoying life (aka sitting around my apartment bored) more again. >_<;
