It all started on friday morning. I woke up a bit later than usual so i didn’t have time for breakfast, got to class just a bit late, as usual, had more tests in the PE class (grip strength, sit-ups, flexibility, jumping and shuttle running) with relatively good but still unsatisfactory results (meaning although i got a score equal to a C grade, it’s still loads better than most of the japanese). It was fun, i’m starting to consider PE a class with meaning, which is again funny considering it’s totally unrelated to economy.

Had lunch, a terribly boring class and a fun japanese lesson. I wonder if the はば of 幅 and of 阻む is related or just accident. Considering both mean something like range… But the teacher says they’re probably unrelated. (It baffles me how little japanese care about their language…)

Then i went to buy a D-string and a pick for my guitar, former because the one on the guitar snapped, latter because the one i’m using is too easy to slip from my fingers. Then i helped with cleaning the garden of the dorm. And the fun started here.

But back then it wasn’t all that fun. I played the guitar for a while, practicing the Jackson 5 song, but after that, i just had to go party somewhere. And no one was available or willing to do something. I got quite pissed off by that, so i decided to go to the gym, where i worked out for an hour or so, then ran a kilometer, and hoped that would calm me. It didn’t. I ended up going Nagoya to meet up with old friends, and i’m happy i did.

We went to a mall (?), played billiards for hours, then a few games of bowling (i’m still not good at it, but much better than i was), and as the closing of the night went to karaoke till eight. As i got back, just had a shower, but without sleeping or eating anything i went to ran five kilos. Had a class. (For which i borrowed a book from the library, about three dimesional fractals (just picked one randomly off the shelf), and it has C code examples…)

Practiced guitar more, two more strings (high and low E) snapped. I bought replacements, and when i got back the party was starting already. International party, organised by the chaos guys, and the americans were here as well from the nearby Michigan center. Lot of people, lot of drinks. After the party we went to karaoke, then ended up in a bar. It was quite wild.

I came to in a McDonald’s in the morning, without any idea how long i’ve been there or what i’ve been doing there. Had a breakfast anyway, went to find my bike, got home and after a shower i slept till two. And here i am. Fun weekend, but i still have to practice the guitar a lot.
