Back from hibernation
You folks know that pre sneeze feeling you get, it can happen once, maybe even a few times, and then you feel better when you finally sneeze? Yeah, the sneeze isn't coming for me...I'm talking about the irritating overcast nature of Oita. It gets dark sometimes and I get my hopes up. I love rainy days, and since I've been here, drizzle is about the worst I've seen. So, I'm waiting for the sky to sneeze. ;D
I'm trying to keep my travel journal as updated as possible, but things really aren't that interesting out here some weeks. I'm participating in the school culture festival, which means I get to take part in one of the most stereotypical moments in any school life anime. ;D
I've found myself taking part in an English circle (read: informal club on campus). It's something I look forward to every week (though not this week since the clubs are canceled due to the festival). There's really a good feeling associated with teaching English to willing students. I'm not too sure about JET program, though, since kids are supposed to take English class in grade school and aren't exactly 100% motivated.
Well, I think that's it for now. All in all, I'm enjoying life out here, though I could really go for some real pizza right about now. =D
