7/13/10

TODAY WAS SO RAINY!
We were able to sleep in today since it's our free day. I woke up around 10am to the sound of rain. Our team pretty much split up today because different people were meeting with different contacts. I didn't have any plans for today, so I just followed people around. I was able to do laundry at around noon, but I had to walk to the laundry place in the rain. While I was there, this old Japanese lady was there too and she started talking to me. I had no idea what she was talking about. I'm pretty sure she was asking me a question, but all I did was smile and nod. After laundry, a group of us went to Nijo then Shijo. Nijo has a huge arcade and Shijo has a lot of shopping centers. At Shijo, we went to this all you can eat dessert place called Sweets Paradise. We payed 1500 yen (about $15), and it was so totally not worth it. I'm not the biggest food critic, but this place was kind of overrated. There wasn't too many desserts, and not all of them were super good. After the disappointing desserts, we went home to just relax. It was a really relaxing day, but still kind of tiring because we had to travel through the rain. I wore my awesome man-pris the whole day, and felt totally judged. Story of my life. Even though I didn't do too much today, it was a really fun day =]

  1. Crazy day. Dude, get the date right!

    In any case, it's almost Independence day over here, which means you guys are thinking of getting fireworks over there! Just remember, last time, if I didn't sweet talk to the police officer, we would've ended up at the police station. Apparently, the law is, you can only do that by a river.

    Have a wonderful time! Do we get to see you wear your manpri at camp?

  2. haha yeah I remember! I don't think we're doing fireworks over here this year, which means no guy running at our fireworks and punting it while holding his dog. You'll get to see my manpri's sooner than camp! (aka your wedding) =]

  3. Dear Shawn,
    It's good to relax and rejuvenate. Have tons of things to do for Sunday.
    It's great to acknowledge the 4th. Miss you and praying for you.
