I love this holiday in the middle of the semester... especially when all the other schools are still having classes today and yesterday, because only the 29th was a National Holiday, while Doshisha closed right from the 29th to the 6th... XDD

Well, two days ago I went to Osaka again, and with Monica, Gaia and Valeria we went to the 商店街, the KTV (Kansai TV) HQ, and again in Umeda, we even rode the panoramic wheel!! And near the Hankyuu and Hanshin stations there were a few street bands playing, we stopped to listen to 2 guys who were promoting their "first full single"!! the songs were very sweet, the two guys kind of cool, especially the drummer cause he was drumming on a wooden box Xd and he even had two small maracas inside his shoes!! XDD

Pity that every few minutes a group of vans would race by sporting the Japanese militarist and imperial flags, and shouting nationalist slogans.... -____-

Until now classes are going smoothly, we had a test last Monday but we don't know the results yet, life in Kyoto is really good, I went with the other girls to 清水寺 and shopping in 三条 when they came to Kyoto...
I still miss my family and my "regular" life, especially when I have to cook or go buying groceries (if I wasn't a bit scared of the swine flu I'd buy pig meat, it's getting really cheap XDD), but my parents are sending me a box of "first necessity items" (mainly my breakfast cookies, tampons, body spray and a few T-shirts i forgot at home XD) and only thinking about it makes me warm inside, because it's still something familiar, something from home...

Finally it's getting warmer, after a few days of rain and cold, and I can't wait for tomorrow because the girls are coming for a bit of sightseeing (Ryouanji and Kinkakuji are planned) and of course a sleepover!! XDD and on Wensday we're going to Nara!! (hoping nothing goes wrong at the last minute)

おおきに！
