Day 1348 ( Walking around Kyoto )
Sunday, November 27, 2011


Bought a neck pillow for my trip back to Yokohama on the bus.

I then followed my friend to a shrine in Kyoto name Kita no tenmangu.

At about 10:45 I took the night bus to head back to Yokohama.

Day 1351 ( Interviewing a Pastor )
Wednesday, November 30, 2011

Ok so finally I will reveal it. I am currently enrolled in a seminary in the US doing an online Masters in Christian Education. I started in about September 2010 and I'm on my final module now. I am aiming to complete it by January or February 2012.

A part of the course is to interview a pastor and ask him to read a 3 page essay that I wrote. So I went to the church after work today to interview the pastor. He made some important point that I jotted down and added to the assignment.

After this I did my evening lesson at TGIF again. My student said he should be buying a new car sometime soon. We spoke about quite a bit of stuff unrelated to the lesson but, it went well.

One Piece Sells Record High Manga 


When I just got to Japan in 2008, I went on an anime watching spree to help with my boredom. I started with Naruto, then with bleach, watched a few others but they didn't grip me like those 2. One Piece was recommended to me and I watched about 10 episodes back in 2008 then stopped because I thought it was boring. But my friend from England living in Niimi, started watching it and said it was actually good. So to beat boredom again, I started watching One Piece when I moved to Yokohama. Bleach and Naruto were playing a bunch of fillers so I stopped watching them for a while. But I was hooked on One piece.

I recently learnt that this absolutely superb anime sold over 28 million mangas in 2011. I can understand why. It is quite interesting.
