My timetable turned out to be 3.1 days every week - 3.1 because 3 very full days (Tues and Fri: 9am to 6pm, Thurs: 1pm to 6pm) followed by one measly ONE, FIRST period (9am to 10.30am) Japanese language class on SATURDAY morning. I've always had to wake up early on Saturday mornings for trainings and such, but NEVER for class. For the unaware, schools are allowed to hold classes on Saturdays in Japan. Last semester I was lucky to not have any, but this semester, since they changed the system for the Japanese language classes, most of us have one period on Saturdays. Can't say I'm enjoying my 'new' class though - really wished that they allowed our old class to move up together. Not really looking forward to Japanese classes these days, especially when I have to brave the 3deg cold like this morning.
Speaking of 3deg weather, it actually snowed/iced/rained last night, to the extent that patches of ice and melting snow was visible along the sidewalks this morning. Coooooold! Thankfully I did not pack my black winter coat into the small luggage I passed to Heng to bring back to Singapore. Brr.
Oh my sunny sun sun, where art thou?!
Oh, and Golden Week is coming up in about 2 weeks' time - should I go somewhere maybe? Probably a day trip if anything - if not 1 week lazing about Tokyo is a little too uncomfortable for my already restless person. Checking out Sendai. Best thing would be that I'll be working the week through though =P.
Anyway, I'm off! Off to my arubaito (Japanese word for part-time-job; of German origin) of hosting a Mandarin chat table! -gasp-. Wonder if my Mandarin can sustain 2 hours of talking. I don't think it's the talking that's difficult, just the part where you are NOT allowed to run out of topics. Go brain go!
