Koncha!

Koncha Minasan. Just came back from a workout at the dojo. I practiced today for 3 hours, I think. Aikido really takes alot out of me. At the end I'm always sweating like a pig. Haha. So I stayed behind a little bit to learn some more techniques from Sensei. He corrected me and guided me through some more exercises. It was very educational. Then afterwards we went to get some ramen at the ramen bar. It was very cool. We talked a while, with me struggling to speak and understand Japanese. Hehe. Well, I AM proud to say that I've picked it up quite a bit now. I can do simple conversation.

I think it's time to end this little vacation of doing nothing and touring around. Now that I can speak Japanese pretty well, my granpa is asking for me to get a job. I'm not exactly sure where yet. But I've been thinking about maybe Ikea or Costco since there are SOME english speaking people working there. It'll be good for me to get a job and make money and new friends. It'll be a nice experience, working in Japan.

I'm going tobe job hunting later this afternoon so I'll let you know how that goes.

jaa!
