My back hurts...I miss couches

I have decided, finally why the houses hear look so familiar. Has any one watched ‘The Labyrinth” directed by Jim Henson (brilliant)? Well if you have ever watched far enough into the movie you will find yourself viewing the goblin city. That’s kind of what all the houses are kind of like here, very vertical and little and cramped together, narrow streets, little features. Thought I might share that with you. Speaking of sharing, I totally miss having someone who lodges in the same house as you because I find I’m too lazy to walk to the grocery store and wash the dishes. I just forced myself to wash the dishes that took about an hour, and I realized my dish towel was filthy so I could not use it to dry the dishes. They are all drying out in my shower/bath room. Not to mention my fingers are all water soggy. I also have no idea how Blake managed to wash the dishes, because the sink is pretty low, I mean I’m not that tall but it’s somewhat uncomfortable and begins to hurt washing the dishes all hunched over. At least I have clean dishes now.

Yesterday for some reason I woke up at 5am and could not sleep, and then that afternoon once my classes were finally done I was going to have a nap but it was interrupted. Seems on Friday I had said I would go to Kobe with one of the Korean boys and his friends. So I did that, it was okay, Kobe seems prettier then Osaka (down town area). I’m not really too sure though because it was dark out by the time we got there. I did not get home that night until 11pm and then I could not fall asleep for a while because I was over tired so that sucked. P.E today was okay except for the fact that I was tired. As well I got in trouble for hitting the volleyball with my foot, although I got in trouble before because I stopped the game when someone else hit the volleyball with their foot. I was then told it was part of the new rules in volleyball and its okay but then I got in trouble for it today because I could kick someone in the head. Oh well whatever, I don’t have to play volleyball for a while. Unless we play it in tomorrows P.E class…I hope not. I don’t much like volleyball. I mean not because I’m bad at it or anything, just not my thing. The only team sport I really like is baseball.

Anyways I have some interviews on Friday, and I think Saturday I have to help pick out students to go on exchange or help with the interviewing process. Might I add I’m almost 100% sure I was the only one that applied for this exchange so I’m not even sure if I’m usually what they would have sent. Hopefully Mr. Ohta won’t raise his voice at me getting mad because I’m not 100% sure on some random information, or was never interested in some random information that he is positive is a vital thing to know. Such as, what brand of clocks time the Olympic Race’s. I mean personally I’m more interested in the psychical capabilities of the contestants, and yes I know forms of measurement makes those things impressive. I never once thought “gee that’s an impressive clock that can time down to a tenth of a second, I wonder what brand it is” for me its more of “gee that’s an impressive human being that can do that in such and such a time, I wonder what country that person is from”. And honestly my favourite sports of the Olympics are diving and gymnastics the more “artsy” if you must of the bunch which is not timed but judged by people. I wonder if Blake had such problems with him, or the other girls. Ha Oh well. I’ll post an update later because I’m super cool and you all care what I’m typing. Ha and scoff.
