Did more of the walking today, I went back shopping with everyone to be social but also to get some things that I forgot, like tape, and to find a better change purse. The little zipper thing I had isn't good for finding change so I found one that works like a little box and you can see all your change a lot easier.
For starter today I woke up at 9am so it wasn't the 7am like yesterday and I went and hung out with people near the kitchen and grabbed an apple and had that for breakfast. It was wonderful, Hamilton likes stealing things from people so I had to 'fight' him for my nail file back. After all that I got dressed and we all went back out with the new group for more shopping! Yeah, we ate at the same place as yesterday and me and Panda (her name is Kristin? But she said that her nick name is Panda it just stuck in my head) got to be surrounded by the hot men with hot accents! She was between an Australian and a Brit and I by a Brit. It was an amusing lunch - at one point a spider the size of like my hand was on the ceiling and it freaked us foreigners out. One of the waiters went at the spider with a pair of tongs and killed it. When he realized he had a HUGE crowd that was cheering at him he turned beat red and bowed at us while all of us were clapping.
If I mention the word 'gaijin' it means foreigner and it's kind of a running joke, where we mention out stupidity or lack of knowledge about the culture and we're always going on about 'stupid gaijin.'
We went back by Paico and the super market I got tape, a wallet, tape refills, jewelry separator, and a small water bottle which cost me like 5? Dollars and then went to the grocery store got more water, soda, fruit, eggs, and some instant things, oh and peanut cream.
So Peanut cream is the Japanese version of Peanut Butter, and it's GOOD. Imagine if you will the consistency of whip cream with the taste of peanut butter but a tad sweeter. It's good.
When we got back I put my stuff up and went down stairs to hang out with people, I ended up talking with Lea for a good while and showing her a few pointers on computer coloring. I'm not a genius by any means but I'm decent. So I figured she could make it her own. She's really good. I like the way she draws Eyes. We ended up discussing cats after a while me, Lea and Michelle and two other girls whose names I don't know. I think we talked until about 6ish? When I got dinner of a pb&j with soda and chips.
I've noticed I haven't gotten like extremely hungry in the past couple days like even with all the exercise I've been doing I don't notice that I'm hungry. But I do tend to drink a little more water than normal (I have an awesome Blue mug).So I probably stay hydrated and feeling satiated more than back home.
Obviously you've noticed that all these posts show up on the same day well that's because I haven't had internetwell, it's been forcing me to socialize and I have to say that if this stays the same with still being able to hang out and talk with people I think I'm going to enjoy my time here immensely!
But its 9:45 now so I'm going to go and hit the hay, got to be up at like 8ish because of orientation! WHOO! INTERNET HERE I COME!
So! JA NE! Ais***eru mina-san! (I love you all very much)
