Day 40

Today I made sure to fax my postal account information as well as my car document information to my company. I also called H.I.S travel - Osaka Branch and asked them to get me the cost of the cheapest flights from Japan to Dresden in Germany and also from Japan to Leipzig, Germany...they called me back and told me that the cheapest fare to Leipzig is about 150,000 yen while Dresden would be 130,000 yen...the best fare H.I.S travel Okayama branch found for me was 179,000 yen and this would be through Korea then Frankfurt...Hear what is my problem now...The Korean route is more expensive and it won't get me to my final destination....but the flight is available and I possibly need no visa to transit through Korea... with the other flight now, I going to have to go through China and would be on standby, I also going to need a transit visa to go through this country that I heard is stiffling people with their air pollution. But the fare is still cheaper...So I am hoping and praying that I get on the flight and get through with all these visa business...suh now is 2 visa mi haffi guh get...German visa and Chinese..Bwoy mi have it rough...a me choose this path it seem, or is it destiny? But what is destiny??lol ... Ok let me stop this philosophy madniss...

So I had 3 classes today and I am reading off this SAME 5 PAGE BOOK EVERY WEEK, to the grade 1 and 2 students...bout "Brown Bear, Brown Bear what do you SEE...I see a blue horse looking at Me"...any body eva si a blue horse yet???? What are they teaching the kids??? Most of the games that we set for the kids to play, involve this very popular Japanese thing called "janken"..Its what we would call, rock, paper, sissors...I was told that even big Japanese Corporations use this concept to make a final decision.

Any way, I met up with my Bible study friends at a food place name Joyful which is near my apartment. I lead the Bible study session because the lady with the weird cat and dog, has visitors and going to be having them for a little while...So I spoke about Genesis 1:1-19 which is about the 1st 4 days of creation...I also showed them some videos that I took when I was back in Jamaica. It was a good little Bible study session and we left about 10:30 pm... when I got home, my mom called me...Tomorrow is a Japanese holiday and a couple of days next week as well. There are many holidays here in Japan, however I think I might prefer work than holidays because on holidays, if you don't link up with your friends...then you will have absolutely nothing to do....Well so far so good for me and hey it's day 40, I only have about 320 more days to go :)
Any way likkle more...

and its okay to get a little philosophical sometimes. i'm happy you have a bible study group tho. yeah, skip the gogo, but do explore the country! pick a place and go there, and while you are at it choose some new words that you will use/learn that day! blessings!

lol fi real though dave you need to get outta the house man, new country and you still inside the same prefecture. Go drive in one direction till you find somewhere cool... lol. I think this week supposed to be golden week still so u mussi still on vacation.

OH btw, janken is the boss lol. Rock paper scissors pwns all other games lol. It has an extra rule than rock paper scissors though, the person who wins the round also has to get the loser to look in another direction to be a complete win (or something like that, some form of direction looking)
