Crunch Time

Well, I have been getting into my regular routine back in here Nihon. To bad that the semester is over at the end of the month. This mean I have been really working hard and studying my butt off to make sure I do well. Not that I don't study a lot but I am just making sure that I am getting it.

Work has been going well. I really do like teaching and the income is deffinetly needed. Everything is so expensive here. Mr. Kotaki, the guy I am out sourced to, mentioned that a company is perhaps interested in me going there once or twice a week to teach English to its employees. While I have no problem doing that, Mr. Kotaki is also aware that my schedule is limited and that I will only do so much work. I think he maybe getting to big and may need to hire another teacher in addition to me in the future.

For the last month or so I just feel like we do not get enough fruit in our diet. Last week I started counting how many servings of fruit and vegatables I was getting and it was really wacked. About 12 servings of vegtables . . . no joke . . . and 1 serving of fruit. Some days it was 0. So I bought some pears and oranges and been eating them to get the extra servings. My room has a nice orange smell which I honestly do not mind.

I have uploaded some of the pics from Ueno Koen up to my flickr account so go ahead and check it out. Also I just realized I wrote this straight on here and not in Word first. Oh well . . . . .

PS Mike I am trying to do better with the blog thing!!
