Highlights from Monday:
-Basically didn't sleep because I felt super happy and peppy all day (& night)
-Went to a CREEPY BOMB SHELTER
-Went into, and then walked out of, the Nagasaki history & culture museum because I didn't want to pay
-Found a free "reconstructed 19th-century mayor's office" plaza place and went all up on that. Took pics. Alone.
-Totally PTFO in the afternoon (for the non-acronym-savvy, that means I fell asleep.)
Tuesday:
-Went to the Nagasaki Prefectural art museum. Um basically a bunch of local works by local artists a.k.a. amateur watercolors. But still a lot better than I could do. I just tend to prize conceptual art a lot more than solely-technique-based still life or scenery. Where's the fun in that?!
-Walked around Seaside Park; saw a bunch of crabs, got a bunch more bug bites in the process
-Got caught in the rain without an umbrella. Waited it out in a nearby mall until it MIRACULOUSLY stopped 20-30 min later and I was able to walk home rain-free.
-Stayed up until 5AM because I wasn't tired and I discovered literally the best food ever: peanut butter-chocolate sauce-milk. All mixed. It's like a freaking peanut butter chocolate shake. And I watched Lion King.
Wednesday:
-Slept until 12:30 (due to the previous day's staying up until 5am)
-Work meetings in the early afternoon, class in the late afternoon
-When practicing counting:
Anzu: wan...
Akari: two...
Kanta: sree...
(etc.)
Kohei: sixteen...
Sato: sebenteen...
Kosei: ....ELEBEN!
Whole class cracks up. Guess you had to be there.
-Barely went outside even though it was SUNNY and RAINLESS...wasted a sunny and rainless day...WHY OH WHY?!
