Summer Holidays

I'm currently in the Lab... Taking a good hard look at my Digital Fundamentals book... Worth mentioning of course is that `looking' should never be confused with `reading', which at this point is really to hard to do... Looking is soooo easy...... It's amazing how many words they can cram in one page.....

So anyway, the reason being of course is that i just finished 2 weeks of what I could salvage from my Summer Holidays (which is Natsu Yasumi in Jap).... It was kinda fun.... I think i watched a total of around 15 DVDs in that whole 2 weeks and slept at around 6am everyday.... Did miracles for my biological clock.... lol.... Also, ate tabehodai (buffets; which are a popular thing in japan) almost everyday, since I only ate once in a day.

In terms of activities, didnt do anything exciting but did go to Yodogawa River for a Dragon Boat festival, and guess what? As a contestant!... yup our team was the glorious `Yodogawa International Students Team' (ok I admit the name was far from being creative >_<)... and despite being last in both heats, we went down with a bang! (actually, a splash would be more accurate)...

Incoming abrupt cut... Sorry to cut it short, but labwork is beckoning..... Summer Holidays... Luv em!

Mixed feelings

Whoa... in the rate I`m updating this blog, it`ll take forever for it to be a decent site...
Well, i can try can`t I?

Hmm.... so where do I start.... OK my life...
So far the biggest revelation is that that my jap course is over... Mixed feelings on that... A bit sad, not being able to meet the teachers and classmates.... I loved those 5 months.... OK.. OK... I admit that I slept a few times, but hey who doesn`t....

The final presentation was great... I missed a few words, but it was fairly fine... And believe it or not.... I kinda enjoyed it.... And i got to wear my suite... yup... neat and spify that day....

And of course being the sentimental fool I`ve always been, I got caught up in actually getting the final BBQ up! (again!)... It`s so DejaVu... hahaha... but it just doesn`t feel right saying goodbye just like that... It has to go with a bang... or a lot of BBQ smoke at least... (^_^)
But, it ended up quite well, despite the rain... And in the end, all the troops rallied and things kinda fell in place... as they usually do.... it was great... kinda sad though...

Now my life in the Lab will begin... A lab friend is going unfortunately.... Randy, american, great guy... One more Ryugakusei gone.... But I`m sure things will turn out fine in the end...... I hope....
