Day 1054 ( Interview )
Sunday, February 6, 2011
Went to Okayama city today to do an interview for a similar teaching job, based in another prefecture. I think it went well, but lets see how everything will go. I have some thinking to do. At the interview they told me that we don't have to pay that exorbitant fee for the Japanese insurance thing. So it is like this :
Kokumin Hoken - I think this is the national health insurance and if you want this one, you have to pay back money for how long you have been working in Japan.
Shakai Hoken - This one you don't have to pay the back money but not every city or company uses this insurance. Your company stands part of the insurance fee while you pay the other part.

Day 1055 (Accident in Niimi)
Monday, February 7, 2011
The vice principal at my school today showed me an internet footage about a bus that was transporting some students that met in an accident. The students were from the biggest elementary school in Niimi and the news was all over Japan. Even my friend in Tokyo sent me a message about seeing the accident on TV. Here it is
Went to bible study in the night and one of my friend's there showed me a book that was advertising Jamaica.

Day 1058 (Ear acting up)
Thursday, February 10, 2011
My ear started acting up again so I wanted to ask for about a 30 mins time off from work today to go to the ear, nose and throat doctor. Unfortunately, the principal and vice principal left early and there was no one else to ask if I could do that. So I stayed until 4pm then dashed quickly to go to the doctor. The one I went to was not opened on Thursdays so I had to go to the central hospital and luckily an ENT specialist was there. Now my ear is fine again.
Played football in the night and as usual it was fun, and also, as usual, I was very tired quickly.

Day 1059 (Social Network)
Friday, February 11, 2011
Today was a well needed national holiday. I stayed in all day, didn't even open my apartment. I ended up watching the movie Social Network, based on the founders of FaceBook. It was quite an interesting movie.

Day 1060 ( Step up 3 )
Saturday, February 12, 2011
Stayed in for most of the day today again. Watched the movie step up 3. The story line was lame and predictable also the acting was horrible. But the dancing was AWESOME!!! I didn't really care about the story line but I wanted to see the dancing which was just amazing.
In the evening I was going to the darts bar and when I opened my apartment door it was all snow. I picked up my friend and we still went to the darts bar though. I played 4 games. Won 2 of them and lost 2. My friend in Tokyo drew a picture of me doing karate.
