HOT! So HOT! So...huuumiiiddd....I think Im melting. I can't stop sweating. Its miserable! Its 30C (I think like 86F) with something like 80% humidity here. Steamy! It so hot. The heat index is at 95 as well. Boo! Everyone looks miserable. I think thats why summer vacation happens. Its WAY too hot to sit in school in this weather. I have a sweat towel, and it was completely soaked after walking up 4 flights of stairs and biking 15 minutes (at a slow and leisurly pace...who can hurry in this weather?). Heh, I was using the board and everytime I touched it, I left sweaty fingerprints! Ew. I just wanted to share.

Miserable...

So Saturday was a nice day for me. The car is starting to stall out (we think the heat is part of the cause) but that only happened once and I got it started before I got attacked by an angry Japanese man. Class was excellent though. It was super hot and I said no AC (what was I thinking!?). However, my class decided that my Japanese keeps getting better and better every week. Apparently they can tell a noticable difference. So Woo! My kids even decided to quiz me on my knowledge of kanji (chinese characters). Heh, I impressed them enough that they brought out the rare and difficult kanjis (which was unfair). Yusuke even taught me is name. We are working on travel brochures. I think the kids should have fun with it once they iron out what they are doing. Its at least interesting to them.

On Sunday we went and saw Silent Hill. Its a horror film based on a video game. It wasn't scary as much as it was horrific, gory, and really really creepy. It didn't bother me that night. No nightmares or creepouts. But for some reason, Monday night I was so freaked out by one of the characters that I had to have Chris protect me. Ick.n Pyramid head is scary!

Yesterday we went swimming at the Yuu Plaza. Its really comfortable and fun. They have a walking pool that is a lot like the hooch at White Water. You just walk around in it, float, swim, whatever. Its excercise but cool and fun! Although, yesterday I was so hot that it was really hard to put my swimsuit on! Eww! I was all sweaty.

Thats really all that's happened! But I am trying to update more frequently! Wish me luck!
