Winter Break

Winter break is interesting here. There is about a week where everyone is off – no classes, no nothing. But this period is book-ended by another week or so where there are no classes, but some people still come in. Some of the students come in to do club activities or prepare for entrance exams, and some of the teachers come in to help the students. They want me to come in on those days. I’m not sure why. There’s barely anyone there and I have nothing to do. So, I make an appearance and pretend to be doing things.

I took most of winter break off and went to China to visit Cole. I’ll post stuff about that soon, even though it’s not about Japan.

I will post about China very soon. I just need to procrastinate a little more.

When I found Cole, he looked lost. He seems to have little memory of his life before China. But he likes it there. "The food is very delicious," he says. (I think he may have been brain-washed.)

Thanks for the birthday wishes. I felt my ears burning the whole day. Which was good, because it was cold out, and I was too embarrassed to wear the silly-looking hat I bought.
