Today is the official start of a very long weekend made possible by the school's choice to buy only enough tickets to their onsen trip to cover the teachers and a handful of students. Because of that the rest of us who were unfortunate enough to miss out on the trip will just have to settle for having Thursday and Friday off. Haha, sounds like a fair trade to me. I do love a good trip to the onsen and relaxing in a hot bath but come on, it's the middle of summer. If I want to know what it feels like in a steamy hot bath I just have to step outside or turn my AC off for five minutes.
That being said I'm going to try to follow through on the teacher's little pep speech from Tuesday. She said that anyone who studies hard for one year can pass JLPT level 2. I have the sneaking suspicion that she is being a little overly optimistic but I won't know if I don't try. So today I'm going to work through the JLPT drill book that I use in two of my elective classes. But as she pointed out it helps to study the wrong answers too since most of the challenge comes from not knowing the difference between A-D when you're trying to guess.
I rolled out to Torikizoku with the other American cat from school again. We figured it was a good way to get the weekend started since it's cheap and neither one of us felt like cooking. It's a crazy popular place though, so if you aren't there when the doors open you end up waiting for ever. We were on the list from 8:19pm until a little after nine. It surprised the crap out of me considering that it was a Wednesday and most of the suits in their were probably going back to their normal nine to eight jobs the next day. I guess when you work really hard you have to use whatever time you get to relax.
