Oct. 4 - Oct. 6

Monday Oct. 4:

First real day of class! Every Monday the program has a meeting of some sort to go over program rules/upcoming events. That day I went to an intro to Japanese literature class and human rights education. Not sure what I think of the human rights one yet, but I think I might have to take it for the sake of getting credits. A couple of the girls recognized me and it turned out that they live in the same building but on the second floor. :o One was named Margot (from France) and the other Jeongeun (from Korea).

We stayed on campus for a while after class with the guys and I decided to invite the guys over for dinner. A few days before I had gone with the guys to go apartment viewing with one of the admini people. John (from Sweden) really doesn't like the dorms cause it's ridiculously dirty, I guess. The guys also wanted to see what our apartments looked like. We made stir fry with tomato sauce (surprisingly delicious) and put it on top of rice. I also introduced A Very Potter Musical to everyone. Martijn was totally into it. XD

Tuesday Oct. 5:

First Japanese class. Oh goodness, looks like it's going to be difficult. Was also the first time going to Toyonaka campus via the shuttle bus. Also went to get, I guess, hired for an English-speaking type thing. The guy in charge is kind of weird... But anywho, here are some pictures of the campus:


There was a little stray kitty on campus near my Japanese class. =( He looked so skinny, but he was really nice. He approached me to get some pets. I named him Mufasa.

Josephine, Martijn, and I decided to make yakisoba that night and watch more Harry Potter musical. We also took purikura!

Wednesday Oct. 6:

In one of our classes we met a Japanese girl who can speak Swedish, a good day for Josephine. We all decided to follow her to Minoh campus just to check it out and see if it was worth taking the bus there for one of our classes the next day. Turns out it is. The campus is a lot smaller, but it's in the mountains so the air is refreshing.
