On Monday I tried getting up early to go get my bike from Yahagibashi, my bike had not only been moved but the kickstand had been locked. Luckily the guys were there to help me. I got the contact info I was looking for and did a bit of studying and then hmm, helped Roxy clean up our room and for dinner had curry rice. Yummy! I am fighting a cold though, I think I'm winning?

Tuesday I woke up and did laundry and then started cleaning my room again. I installed the free trial of MS Word 2007...I hate the interface! I don't understand it O_o. Took me forever to do what I wanted to do. I started writing one of my essays for Yamaguchi though. It's in the very rough stage right now. Then I fell asleep. I woke up at around 6ish and my host family had a mini Christmas party. We had sparkling champagne, kfc, a christmas colored salad, rice and some type of cream corn soup. My host mom even got me a little hello kitty make-up mirror, because she knew I liked pink and hello kitty ^_^.Then we had Christmas cake. It was delicious! I also had a mandarin and some apple, so yes I am getting lots of fruit. My throat is still sore, I have been taking medicine though. I will win! I still have two Christmas parties left lol. Well maybe two...

Wednesday turned out to be our last day of regular classes. I had Sasaki's class first and we went through the translation of Homeless Chuu Gakusei. Aftere that, Yamaguchi took us to the Iwa Tengu Shrine and this other really cool temple, unfortunately, that is also the day I forgot my camera. So no pictures from those adventures. Yamaguchi then treated us to pancakes and I also had a pretty decent hot chocolate. After that I went with Emily to meet Megumi and first we took sticker pictures and then went to Maharaja for dinner. It was a very yummy dinner, and very filling. However, I was not planning on spending $20 on dinner...it was still good though ^_^ and the restaurant was Indian so there were elephants everywhere ^_^, too bad I forgot my camera, I would have definitely taken pictures. I got home later than planned because of a train mix-up and also having more CHRISTMAS cake at Megumi's. Yes I got home safely 2 hours late :s and just went to sleep.
