Spring
the sky is blue and all the leaves are green,
the sun's as warm as a baked potato
I think you know exactly what I mean,
when I say it's a shpadoinkle day
so yea, spring is here, and the weather's been weird for the first part of it, so the cherry blossoms only lasted like a week this year. I do like Hanami (flower viewing), where all the little blossoms are falling down on you and stuff, that's cool, but the japanese make such a big deal out of Sakura (cherry blossoms) that it gets annoying. I honestly think 90% of all japanese songs either mention or are completely about sakura. Anyway, it's almost golden week, meaning I get monday through wednesday off. Thinkin about going to Kanazawa but the girl I like might be tagging along and I don't know if I'm ok with that, oddly enough. See, being that it's spring, and love is in the air, I'm of course going after a girl. She just broke up with her boyfriend of like two years or so and was picked up on the rebound by some ridiculously run-of-the-mill average-in-every-way white guy. I'm hoping to get a steal in there and work on my outside shooting game, put it up for the 3, if you know what I mean. On a seperate note, basketball was canceled this week, but I'll be playing against next week I think.
Also, I'm thinkin of getting an ear piercing, just one, in the left ear. I dunno yet, but it'll probably happen this weekend. Was considering it when I first got here but kinda dropped the ball on it, what with my apathy taking over and such (can apathy really "take over"? Sounds too active for it...)
Anyway, other than that stuff things are still truckin along as per usual. I'm happy the weather is getting nice and warm now, like 20+ degrees, and even the bugs are back. I named my first spider of the year, merla, she hangs out near the light outside of my apartment, and I can even hang my clothes outside to dry again, which is awesome. Though I'd still kill a man for my own dryer. Well, class time, got an easy schedule today, but it looks like I'm getting reigned into doing English Club every week on thursdays from now on, so that'll be a long day for me. Oh well, しょうがない
