Spring Break

So! Spring Break has officially begun for me (YAY!) and now is the time to think about how I'm going to spend my week of freedom. Since I am obviously NOT spending my time in Tokyo, I plan to trapize all around Kansai Area. So far, either tomorrow or Sunday afternoon I plan on going down to Kyobashi Station. I'm looking for a book and I need it in English and the largest bookstore I know is in Kyobashi. If that doesn't work, then Amazon.jp. Sigh. Monday is still unplanned, but I'll think of something productive. Possibly a trip to Nara. Yeah, that sounds fun. I am going to spend my Tuesday in Osaka, eating mexican food, going to the aquarium and shopping. My Thursday will be spent at Kobe. Friday is the 21st, which means that Toji Temple is having their temple market (cheap junk!) and I plan to show up when it opens, have an all you can eat indian lunch at Shijo, and probably go shopping there too. And Saturday and Sunday should PROBABLY be spent studying for my midterms coming up as soon as spring break is over...

In other news:

1) Yes, I have gotten into Harry Potter. That is one of the reasons I am going to the bookstore in Kyobashi.

2) I'm getting tired of the repunzel look, so I might even be so adventurous as to cut my hair this spring break. Photos will be posted if I do indeed embark on this sort of quest for an english-speaking hair stylist.

Just incase I DO manage to get bored over the spring break, I have devised a plan (mwa ha ha). I actually got inspired off Deviantart. Many artists are doing a challenge called 100 Words. Put simply, you think of 100 words in no particular order and your job is to draw an entire art piece depicting each one of them. No time limit and you don't have to do them in order either. The whole purpose is to give you some art practice. Soooo, I put together a list of 100 words and will be starting on them during the days when it's too nasty and rainy and dull outside and I don't want to go out. Whee, art! :)
