月曜日's cheesecake

Picture is of Rikuro Ojiisan's cheesecake shop in Namba, just bought the cheesecake, me and my homestay enjoyed a slice or 2 of cake and tea, delicious :D Different to the cheesecake i've grown to love but still a a happy customer. Took my camera out so I could take some snaps, i want to snap people but , i think it's weird to photograph strangers and then i think it's weird to ask.

Saturday I was a bouncer well not really but I helped out at an international party which was cool, a nice place where you get to meet people who learn English so you can gengokoukan good place to have conversation with the all so elusive Japanese person. Yes elusive even in Japan.

I did some studying for the school day which was today, for a class which I understand well. it's amazing how much you can learn when you actually enjoy what you're doing. Yes I've often said I would never go back to school but a masters in japanese and something or just a course in Japanese would be fun for me and fluency would make me super asset, so yeah im thinking about it hard.

Sunday was recovery because last trains finish at 11 and if you go out you have to wait for the first train at 5am. So you can dance all night till the trains start or you can go and sleep in Mcdonalds or some other establishment.

This wouldn't happen in london. Remember happy slaps , indeed I haven't seen so many good happy slapping opportunities in my life, but no matter how tempting it may look, happy slapping is very wrong but cruelly funny and I would never do it :D

I've just been informed that my younger brother is counting down the days to my return which is extremely touching, i'll have to bring him out here if he is anything like me which he is- basically he's almost everything like me, just lighter and less hair on the face but more on the head- anyway if he is anything like me he'll love it.

I need a shave, i wanna shave my head but i’m not sure if Ill do a good job, i need a barber. Patchy head is not a good look in my eyes.


Have I mentioned that they need to ban smoking here, like in public places, well ,yeah they do.

Advancement

All I can say is I've learnt a lot, that commute I mentioned I made it worthwhile
Japanese Audio Lessons,

I get about 3 hours of Japanese in every day. ichshukan mei kara. watashia wa Nihongo yoku wakarimasu soshte skoshi wakarimasu. I can count from Ichi to KyujuKyuHyakusen Kyuhakyu kyujukyu ( 1 - 999,999). I'm not learning Romaji ( how you write japanese in english) because I am going to learn Hiragana and katakana. (i.e dont watch the spelling)

I feel good now i need a nisan nim japanese tomodachi (few japanese friends) and I can get some practice in.

Dreamt in Japanese , so that's the one.

Not only that I went Salsa last night till the early hour literally Kesa Ichiji ni (this morning at one o clock), I was still dancing. I'm a lot better at that too, need to move up I didn't go to intermediates but I will next week.

Re picture- Samurai Champloo- is the best anime I've seen so far--
