So a little catch up..... I met up with some teachers for some happy hour drinks that turned into a full meal that turned into getting home around 11PM. I loved it. I was only planning for a few beers, but got some great conversation with some of my neighbor teachers. Well the conversation was very broken English and a toddlers level of Japanese. I then cruised to Bernie's Bday bash and had great tasting steaks. I could have eaten all of them. We all hung out in the sun having a few beers and chatting with friends. Very good weekend if we remember to pack a futon to sleep on (rocks aren't that comfortable) and beer stealers aren't cool.
As for the next weekend, I made it over to Ana and Rene's for some deliciousness. Rene cooked us up some great thai food. I was so stuffed, then we went for a little bowl. Who came in 2nd? Yeah that was me, and almost beat the semi-pro bowler Lash. It's okay that the Japanese bowl-o-rama is a little different than England. Then Rene cooked us up some more Thai food after we finished and then played some cards until I was sooo sleepy that I aparently was talking to myself. And for breakfast...... more Thai. What a great night. Then on Saturday night we all headed over to Vasco's for a little okonomiyaki (pancake veggie delight) and then a little singing until 3 PM. We got to stay at Kevin's and he made us breakfast too. Later that Sunday afternoon Pirates of the Carribean 3. Another great weekend!!!
I have been a busy bee with some of my teachers. I went to a friend's house (student from my adult English class) and had a lovely dinner with pizza, spicey weiners, chicken wings, and lots of good fruit. We managed to chat and eat until around 10PM.
This weekend I had an enkai with one of my schools. This was the best because most of the teachers talked to me and I had soo much yakiniku I was stuffed. I sat with the art teacher, science teacher, Japanese teacher and home ec teacher. The science teacher told me he had a crush on me. My English teacher came over to me and said she was proud of me talking with the other teachers. Later that night we went for a little karaoke and it was there that the science teacher told me he had a crush on me. I will watch out next time when I am at his school.
And on Saturday we went to our Sayonara Party in Kumenan. It was a huge, I mean HUGE, samarai house full of tatami rooms and places to sleep and all night drinks.
Oh in the meantime I have been an all-star baseball player with my elementary schools and persuaded my lunch table to eat the kiwi whole with the peel and all. They did and then everyone followed suit. Haha look at what I am doing to the small town. No I don't wear panty hose or ever will.
Maybe I will get some pictures put up if I have enough time on the internet.
