Freeness
My new notebook (no-to-) has anti bacterial pages!
On the front it also says:
“knowledge is proud that he has learn’d so much,
Wisdom is humble that he knows no more.”
Cool huh? I’m gonna use that somewhere to be deep…
Since the last blog, I have been learning Japanese… Slowly the stuff I learned in QUB’s evening classes is coming back, and being added to. I’m fairly good in hiragana and am improving in it and katakana all the time. I have started Japanese classes at JLC, and being in a homestay is great!
On Saturday I got the bus into Sapporo and looked around a bit. It was quite daunting not knowing what most of the signs said and not having soreoe to ask “what is that?” or ”what does that say?”
then I went to see bunraku which is a type of Japanese theatre using half life size puppets. apparently it is quite rare to get to see it.
Sunday I went to my homestay family’s church where the youth group grilled me on evangelism, which was I think due to working through a translator more than any intention…
anyway, more updates as they get written, and photos when I get access to a real PC…
