Stuff

In chronological order:

1) Last last Sunday: skipped Japanese study session with Suzana and Simona and met Yuko @Sarara, she basically wants nothing resembling romance from me.
2) Monday: met Agemi, my new Japanese 1-on-1 tutor. Good partner to practice my broken Japanese conversation. Cute as well.
3) During same introductory meeting with Agemi, Kaori hooked me up with Shinobu-san's basketball team. First practice is tomorrow. Yada!
4) Wednesday Japanese class: established conversation routine with that girl (Hanako's friend, must find out name tomorrow). Another good target for Japanese conversation practice.
5) Friday: did I do anything? Oh yeah it was the ken-wide orientation in Sakaiminato. That Shimane teacher's speech was very good. Played pool with Adam (I won most games, naturally). Also, found out that Amy must've put a password on her wireless internet as I can no longer "borrow" her bandwidth from my apartment.
6) Saturday: shopped all day with Simona. Well she shopped and I just hung out at Jusco. Bought a floor lamp. Was treated to Tomato&Onion by Simona. Watched Winter Sonata (Korean soap VERY popular among Japanese obasan) for near 7 hours until 2am.
7) Sunday: drove to Tottori-shi and played ultimate. There's a JET ultimate tournament and I think I got myself a spot.

Will elaborate on the above, when I find time.

Also, other stuff to add:
1) pics from Hiroshima trip
2) further ruminations on Yuko, girls, and relationships in general. If I don't write some of it down I will forget all about it, which will probably become lessons unlearned but isn't really a bad thing. As it is now my feelings about the whole things are already significantly diluted.
