Very free week

This week I was very free. The school had a test. So I was free this whole week. So I would go to school. And go to the library for some alone studying. Than when test is over I would go to the classroom and clean and then go home. This whole week except friday I went to school by bicycle. I am slowly getting used to it. I am slowly remember the roadway. Slowly. Step by step.
Monday was a holiday here. I bought some manga books. Sunday was the middle school sports day. It was really a fun day. Except really hot. Asuka chan was working hard. I also bought some origami paper to work on whenever I am bored. I bought a hat for only 7 bucks. Canada it is normally 20 bucks for a single hat. Here it is sooo cheap. There were fashionable shoes for 3 bucks. A fashionable vest for only 9 bucks. Where as in Canada is in the 20s. I have 5 months to purchase those. hahaha. I only bought a hat tho.
Next week I have tuesday off because the day is half and half. 12 hours day and 12 hours night. Kind of weird but great. Monday is the last day of testing. So last day of free time in the library I mean study time in the library. NO I actually do study in the library. I am trying to memorize 80 kanji. My goal is to remember them by the end of the first week of October. Will I Succeed? I hope so. It's really difficult. First week of October as well is very busy for me. School festival is on the 3rd and 4th. Than the end of October is sports festival. So really busy for October.
Today at 4 o'clock I am going to Ouchi san's place. They are going to show me kurashiki and talk about the Church in Kurashiki. I am looking forward to meeting them. Finally a church. ^0^
I showed my homestay father a golf advertising booklet I brought from Canada, he was really happy. He kept saying he wanted to go to Canada just for the golfing experience. My homestay mother knows about the Little house on the prairie series. That is her image of canada. So I showed her some images of Canada.
Sunday after I return from Kurashiki I am hoping to make some chocolate chip cookies. I couldn't find any oatmeal here so I am just making chocolate chip cookies. They sorta have a very small oven. But it is okay. ^0^. cookies are easy to bake. Surprisingly most of the students in school here don't know how to cook. Most of the time it is their mothers that do it. Only some students know how. Yet they study home economics at school. Yet home economics at school is not hands on. It is only from books.
well I can't think of anything else. I am working hard here. ^0^

[REVIEW/FAN ACCOUNT] Xia Junsu Solo Concert

This is a review. A very laid back open personal review on the concert... maybe I should actually call it a fan-account... but I am going to be critical about it so... I shall call it a review. A review on Kim Junsu or Xia Junsu's solo concert. Yes. Anyways we arrived at around 2:30 at the venue and there were a lot of people already. Never underestimate Junsu fans. First thing first, we decided to get our fan goods. There was a total of 9 goods that you could buy but to be honest most of them look tacky and the only thing I wanted was a light stick and possibly a slogan because they looked classy. The line up to buy the goods was very long. So they tried to make it shorter by lining up everyone with 4 people per row. The weather was hot and it was a good thing those who were part of the Junsu's fan club started handing out small Junsu fans. I am so glad because although they were small, it helped quite a bit with the heat. Fan goods! The concert didn't start until...

M! Countdown + JJ PROJECT!!!

So... today. I decided to not go to class at all because I needed to see JJ Project's debut stage in person. Yes. I went to see this performance in person. It was completely worth it! JJ Project had a pre-recording, so it was nice to have their debut stage with only their fans. The time that was indicated on their fan cafe was at 9:30 but my friend and I came at around 8:30am. We got our numbers after sending in our names to the fan manager and I was originally number 15 but when it was time to line up again at 11:00, I was pushed up to number 11! We were given blue JYP wrist bands and the fan managers wrote our numbers on it. They also handed out the fan chants, a temporary large JJ Project banner AND they handed out a stamp card. The stamp card is really motivating me to go and see them for every performance. I brought my own and good thing we were allowed to use them. (Since some fan clubs are more anal about it then others.)    We got inside around 11:30 but we ...

Seoul Grand Park Zoo

Last weekend I actually did something interesting... at least on Saturday. We went to Seoul Grand Park, especially to the Zoo. It is located in the southern part of Seoul and the park is really a Grand one. The zoo, as well, was really really big. It was really cheap to get into as well. Only 3000KRW! We couldn't go around the whole zoo because it was a Saturday meaning there were a lot of people! I could walk and be at the zoo all day but with that many people at the same time, I had my limits. Being in Seoul made me realize how much I did not like being squished in between people. my roommate took the picture! ^^ Statue in front of the Ape Jungle! It was the 6 of us going to the Zoo this time. So we made our priorities on which animals we wanted to see and went there first. The zoo was humungous and was smartly divided. All similar species were together, or the animals that live together in real life were bunched together. Each section was themed. It was really cool! We wen...
