Rawr、 It always feels like I did this yesterday and also not for a month. Writing emails I mean. Questions from parents:(mostly father) Did you celebrate pie day? Nope, we were going to but the timing didn’t work out to hang out with our friends, I’m planning on doing a tao day instead maybe. We missed vday, saint Patrick’s, presidents day, etc. So, how is your teaching pool? Large enough? Full of fun friends with more friends to get.

Is your p-day still on Mondays? Yup. I’m just inconsistently being inconsistent for inconsistencies sake. I think that’s a valid English sentence. I at a purple blood orange yesterday.. it was very purple and from southern Japan. We went to a dishes shop and bought these little pots(the were cheap and we got them to match) to make cute little cassaroles or something in and all the old ladies(60% of people who still go outside in Japan are probably old ladies) and she stopped us before we left and gave us oranges.

こんばんは、 (Good evening,) Hello, I’m still alive. This past week has been kinda crazy because I’ve been meeting a bunch of new friends and members. No volleyball circles. I forgot to take pictures of a lot. I’m still going to be baking though. This is also the first time I’m in a trio, it’s only for the next couple days though. It has low-key been too fast for me. We constantly have activities, visits, or other stuff.

Hello famiries and firendiries, If you tell someone who is learning a language “wooow, your like, sooo fluent” just keep in mind its only nice after the first like, 3 times. after that I just know that they know that youve been lying this whole time. No One comments on how well you speak thelanguage without noticing you dont sound native or good. I suppose you’re saying you understand them, however for most I feel like it is no longer a good form of flattery.

Good Morning, sorry to be late. I’m not dead. From Mom: So is this the last week of this transfer? Yeah, transfers are in exactly a week, transfer calls are on Saturday. I’d say there is an 70% chance I stay in Kushiro because of the way Toma Kaichou has moved stuff around. The branch president has probably also been asking for me to stay for my bread and the senior couple(the Miuras are soooo nice, if anyone saw the painting in the Google photos that’s for them, I took it while in their car) wants me to stay so I can help out with Zone Conference cooking and food prep.
