There hasn't been a whole lot that has happened this week during school. Club activities have been canceled because of tests coming up, and everyone is starting to crack down on studying. That doesn't leave much time for hanging out after school or anything like that. So as per request, I'll give an average day.
I wake up around 6:45 in order to eat breakfast, which is usually cereal. I leave the house at 7:10 and get to the station around 7:20. By the time I transfer trains and get to the station it's 7:50. I get to school at 8:00, but school doesn't start until 8:30, so I welcome people as they walk in and drink something I bought from a vending machine or 7 11. We have for classes, and them lunch, and then two more classes. Every day of the week has different classes, but it's the same every week. There's biology, English, freshman English (an elective), PE, social studies, world history (an elective), home ec, math, Japanese, computer class, and music. School ends around 3:30, but on Thursdays we have an extra "human and working" class that tells you how tip live after school. On Thursdays school ends at 4:00. Clubs vary on how long they run, but the kendo club usually ends around 6. On days with clubs I get home around 7, and eat dinner around 7:30. Dinner ends around 8:30 - 9:00, and I take a bath /shower after that. So it's around 9:30 our so when I get out of the bath, and sleep around 10:00. So on non club days, I usually hang out after school with classmates, but not today. Because it's Thursday. And tests. And done people has clubs for whatever reason. And people were tired. But I don't blame them.
My appetite is really slingshoting from when I didn't have one, because now I eat anything in my path. But this is good, because I want to try everything I can. I still need to eat more, though. More Japanese did that is. Like a restaurant. With friends. But studying. Oh well. I really want to stay in Japan longer. I love the friends I've made here and I really wish this trip was longer. I feel like a part of the class, the school, the family. There's still things I want to do, things I want to do again, things I still can do. So I'm going to do them.
So that's it for now. I had time to write this, but nothing really drastic has happened so sorry.

We love hearing about the everyday stuff as much as the big things. We will be interested to hear about your karaoke this weekend.
