Happy Anniversary...again

Yes, I know I'm a bit late, but happy one month anniversary for being back in Tokyo!! It doesn't feel like I ever left really, but it is wonderful to be back ^^ I guess 3 weeks would make for a long update today heh, but shall try to summarize without doubling the page length.

On the 6th I finally got to see the Kubotas!! Haru has gotten so big, and I can't believe she's in 1st grade already (since she wasn't even in school yet when I last saw her). But of course still just as cute haha. Unfortunately she forgot most of the English we taught her, but just have to start again~! Yuko made nabe for dinner, and that was pure joy ;__; My first nabe ever, and must I say I am officially addicted. Thankfully I get to see them every Wednesday for English lesson + dinner from now on, so I'm sure I'll be posting more about our adventures~

That Friday was English Club dinner, which was of course A BLAST! So many new people now, it's a new environment but still just as awesome as I remember it. Meeting in Shibuya also makes for more stuff to do after we eat. Unfortunately we only meet once a month now, so shall have to really focus on meeting new people~ On Monday had a shopping day with Seiko in Harajuku/Shibuya and KYA so fun X3 Started to get some fall clothes since the weather is finally changing (aka in the 60s). Need to do more shopping though since most of my stuff is lighter. That night came home to ANOTHER nabe party, which just about made my life complete - 2 nabes within one week. I need to remember to take pictures of all the food I'm eating, I just get so overwhelmed in the moment I forgot haha.

Started my accounting classes on the 13th, and oh my gosh BRAIN HURTAGE. Night classes for 2&1/2 hours straight in Japanese in a subject area I know nothing about = I must study much. Our instructor goes really fast, but it's great listening practice. He's also really nice - wrote the kanji extra big for me when I was sitting at the back of the room ^^ I suppose I can always rewatch the lectures as well, since the school has a video room students can use for free. Luckily I'm taking the class with Natsuko, so can ask her (or anyone at my office really) if I need any help, yay~~~
