TGIK - Thank God It's Kinyoubi!

In case you haven't guessed, Kinyoubi means Friday. And yes, thank God it is Friday because that means I have an entire weekend to do whatever. (probably studying, unfortunately)

Update on the Typhoon - It hit Tokyo and we got some rain last night but I don't remember any of it because I was asleep so it can't have been that bad. I woke up this morning and wondered if we even got rain until I went outside and saw that the very small amount of grass on our front yard (seriously, maybe one yard by two yards space) was indeed wet meaning that we indeed got rain.

Today I finish my alien registration and hopefully buy a cell phone. That is, if I can find a place that sells prepaid cell phones. I'm going to the Soft Bank store in Vivre first because the last time I was there I saw some phones for 4000 yen (40$). Hopefully they offer a prepaid plan for those phones. I want a cute and pretty one!

Tomorrow, if the weather is nice and our plans don't fall through, I may be going exploring in Kyoto. Which will be interesting because of the four who have already said they will go, to my knowledge, I am the one with the most knowledge of the language. Kyoto will be very interesting indeed. We'll probably visit Kiyomizu temple again because it's so gorgeous, but we're hoping to find some other things to do in Kyoto.

Lastly, having two classes entirely in Japanese is killing me because I have homework every night. It makes my head hurt and makes me tired. But, at the same time, it is helping my language skills very much, so I guess it's not all bad. I just don't like it, that's all.

But tomorrow is the weekend so I can escape shukudai, if only for a day.

You know, you should take a pic of your new phone whenever you get it. Whoa a typhoon? We had a lightning storm here a few days ago
