Shortest holidays ever.

by admin on October 11, 2006

Hello

Not much has been going on over here. Same old, same old. Except of course that in Japan same old, same old is a lot more interesting than it is in Australia. :o)

So. Weve just come off the school holidays. They’re majorly short, only 6 days. Which sounds especially bad when you compare it to the two weeks my (Aussie) schools just had. Which admittedly I wasnt able to partake in, but whatever.

I have now officially seen my first movie in a Japanese cinema. It was ‘The Lake House’ and thankfully in English, with Japanese subtitles. Hallelujah. LOL.

The cinema was really different than the ones in Australia .

The screen was heaps smaller and there weren’t nearly as many chairs in the cinema. And the drinks were actually pretty cheap.

I had a melon softdrink, which is the single greatest soft drink on the face of the planet. Except perhaps Sarsaparilla, but only when its made with the syrup.

And we did those really cool little Japanese photo thingys, pikura maybe? That was really scary the first time, cause the coloured backdrop came down and hit me on the noggin and it was all really fast. They look really cool though.

Except for one, where I’m pulling the most awful face out and looking like a total spaz, even though I really didnt mean to. But of course they HAD to print that one. But whatever.

Okay, should be going now.

Sayonara!

Laura

Hi Laura

I am glad you are having such a great time over there in japan. Yes try not to get yourself blown up by bombs or anything coz australia needs u back in one piece. David for god’s sake will u just shut up about business week already. Laura you have no idea. But can i just say i have great faith in the year 10 team. Great idea although if you would have used my suggestion you would have done good. (about having different coloured layers and being able to put your own pics on it.) so then your slogan could have been. Now you can cook on your friend’s face!! Not your lame ass Gnome junk. But anyway you have done it your way and i will still vote for you guys anyway. I can’t wait to do it next year it is right up my alley. Ok well take care of yourself laura and have heaps of fun!!!!
