Marine Day
Today is a national holiday in Japan. I really didn't do much all day today. I woke up early like usual, and then started chatting. The MSN webcam and audio worked very well today. I was connected with my family for hours, but all we could talk about is how bored we were. That was about it until I was talking to YYchi, and she told me that I should go for a walk. I thought that was a great Idea, since I needed to go to a train station to pick up the newspaper for a job listing.
Around 5pm I took off to go to Ofuna station. It wasn't that bad of a walk. At first I was pretty slow, but then when I got closer, I picked up the pace. It took me about 30 minutes to get there, but the trouble I had was finding that stupid newspaper. When I arrived at Kamakura city, I got a call from CSma, since we were going to be meeting this week. She's in Osaka right now, but she'll be back to meet me on the 21st and 22nd. I finally found the newspaper in a kiosk at the train station. From there, I got kinda hungry, so I did what any normal American would do, and go to McDonalds. I ordered a McGrand combo with a Gingerale drink. The drink tasted just like a Sprite, and the sandwich was kinda interesting. They added a horseraddish sauce that gave it a kick I wasn't expecting.
Well, earlier in the day, I was chatting with one of my friends SEK, and she introduced me to a friend of hers that has a language school in Japan. It's quite an interesting system that they have. I'm interested in it even though nothing is really ever set. Its more like a private English tutoring session. We made an appointment to talk tonight at 8pm, but he didn't call until 8:20pm. At that time, I was still walking home from Ofuna station, so he said he would call me back in 30 minutes. I hurried home since I was 30 minutes away. I got home about 20 minutes later, and got ready for the call. I reviewed the website again. The conversation was kinda short, and all we really did was set an interview day and time, and location. It will be on the 22nd at 7pm at a train station on the Yamanote line.
That's convenient because I'm meeting my friend CSma that day, and I guess one day we can go to Chinatown and the next day, we will meet somewhere on the Yamanote Line. That way I'm in the area already, but I think I would have to dress nice, which would be a total bummer since it will be very hot that day. Like everyday. So I might bring a change of clothes or something. I'll figure it out. That was bascially my day. Not too exciting. Although I figured out that there are five 7/11 from Totsuka Station to Ofuna Station. That's a lot for a small area. Anyways, I will take a shower and probably sleep early so I can wake up and meet YYchi tomorrow morning at Yokohama station. Good Night.
