nice monday

Hi all,

The weather was great today. The sun was out, with a little breeze, not as cold as previous days. I enjoyed my trip to Shinsen, and another great session with Umeta-san. Let's see, we worked some more on pronunciation today. It was fun. I'm really looking forward to her visit this saturday, should be a lot of fun.

The good news is I found my way and back ok from the house to Kokuryo eki, but the bad news, I lost my way at Meidaimae station. I was walking to and fro trying to find the stairs to the platform to Chofuhomen, and this lady asked if I was all right. So I told her where I wanted to go. The ending, one of the station staff guided me to the right platform and stayed with me till the train came. When I got off at Kokuryo, there was another staff waiting for me there to make sure I was all right and ready to help if I lost my way again, but I didn't needed any this time. So, there was no further adventures. I think I made another friend today. She lives in the second apartment building, but I've forgotten her name. I was walking past the second building and she came over to talk to me, mostly about the weather. It's so wonderful to be able to communicate, to give the right responses, to talk intelligibly, instead of haing my way through. I really think my japanese is getting better. That's wonderful.

I watched on CNN that KL is heavily blanketed in haze today and that the quality of air has been declared unhealthy. Take care guys, drink lots of water.

Anyway, got to go. Need my beauty sleep so I can function properly at work tomorrow.
