Hello! This week has been rather dull, if I do say so myself. We had a small earthquake last night, but it was only a little shake! I wasn't even sure we were having an earthquake until I saw my fan moving a little. And then for the past 2 days it has been raining...we had a typhoon in the area. The sky just now was an amazing orange and now rosy pink. I have never seen the sky like that.

Moving on, only 1 week and 6 days until I am in Hawaii with my family! I can't wait to get there! I even have started packing! YAYAYAYAY! Well, I wanted to let everyone know I am still alive! Hope things are good there!

Hello Again

Well, I know it has been a while since I have updated my blog. Sorry about that. I am not really good at this blog thing, am I? Haha! Well, I have had an eventful summer. Last week I had Obon Vacation. So that meant a week off for me! YAY! But I didn't do anything too exciting. I am saving money for Hawai'i! another YAY! I can't wait to go. It will be so good to see my family and some friends again! I can't believe it has been a year and a half since I have seen any of my family! That's crazy!

Well, last week I took a tour of Gyoda. Gyoda is the town right next to mine. One of my friends gave me a tour of it. We went to this really cool place where are a bunch of tomb mounds. Some of these mounds are super old! They had many artifacts from about 400 years ago. Lots of samurai armor. It was awesome. I even got to go inside one of the temple mounds. After that we went to a museum about the history of Gyoda from pre-historic times. That was another really cool museum. Lots more artifacts.

I have been studying my Japanese a lot lately! I conjugate verbs like it's my job lately. So I guess you could say I am having fun with that. It's not too hard, but it's a lot of vocabulary to remember.

We did have 2 earthquakes last week. They were both the strongest quakes I have felt since I have been here. They lasted a couple minutes each so it was kinda scary. All in all, not that bad where I live though.

Well, I am tired, and I have work tomorrow!
