I can't believe that it's alreadythe last week of may! Wow time is flying by! June 14 is my 3 year anniversary of living in japan!

running outside

recently ive been lazy and just running on the treadmill at the gym. but this week i have been running outside. not so much. about an hour 3 times this week and its great great weather! cool and sunny. so i better enjoy it now, cause soon itll be hot hot hot!

im feeling pretty good this week. monday i ran 7 miles then aerobics class and them swam 700m. tuesday i ran 30 min. aerobics class and then swam 1km wednesday i was a lazy bum. thursday, i ran for 1 hour, took a 15 minute stretch class, a 45 minute body pump class, and bikes for 15 minutes. today my plan is to run 5 miles and swim for 30 minutes. possibly yoga class as well, but im not sure yet...

ive been studying again as well. i kinda took april off from studying japanese and it really wasnt a good idea. i forgot a lot of stuff. but im trying again. so little by little hopefully ill improve!

other than that, nothing new... it was a busy week at work. thankfully today is friday. i start at 2, but start teaching at 4:20 and only have a 50 min class, a 15 min phonics class, a 50 minute class and then 2 classes that are 40 minutes each. not so bad. usually i have 5 or 6 5 classes for 50 minutes. so today will be a nice friday!

inuyama camping

For golden week, basically the whole country had 5 days off. Saturday, i went on a long bike ride with willie. sunday and monday I went camping with hiro and 2 of our friends. it was so much fun! then monday afternoon, hiro and i just avoided the crowds of people and hung out in kasugai. tuesday we went to our friends house for an indoor barbecue. and wednesday, i had to say goodbye to a good friend.

here are the pics from camping.

my second birthday party

i had another birthday party at the end of april with my japan family. it was so nice. good company. good food. good times!
