Not a big update really…

Not much happened over the last few days to be honest. Yesterday, I was working at a middle school teaching the children English. Was so much fun! However, the kids kept wanting to feel my muscles. I said Japanese people are very touchy-feely, but the kids! flippin ‘eck, they won’t leave ya alone! There were so many of the girls that were literally dragging me around by the arm and resting up against me, it was so cute! At lunch time when everyone went out, it was weird too, because all the higher year girls started crowding round all excitedly (the 11-15 year old ones, lol). How strange, eh?
Then I returned my book to the public library (late, but there were no fines…) And got a new one!
Also, yesterday, I figured “Right, what’s the best way of me saving money over the next few months? Well, first things first, drinks. I really don’t like tap water. Really, really don’t. So I got me one of these:
That’ll save me about 500-600 yen a day (£2.50-£3)
Also, on the theme of money saving, I decided to finally get me a really nice lunchbox. I’m spending way too much money on buying lunch every day (About 500 yen, again about £2.50), so it’s best that I do this. I can’t really start properly making bento boxes until Saturday because I need some vegetables (Well, LOTS of veg. I like lots of veggies in the salad section.) Cute isn’t it?
And finally, Inaba sensei gave me a call at 6:45pm, so that I could go and pick up:
These two futons. Inaba sensei is so nice, seriously, to just donate these two to us for the next year, bless her cotton socks! ANYWAYS, all this meant I couldn’t do much in the way of study. Pants.
Oh well!
