So I finally arrived in my place. After two days of bustling around, I finally got water, gas, electricity,…. and INTERNET! In the mean time I was just walking around and checking out the area. Now this time of year is very popular for Cherry Blossoms, so I figured I go check out this park which is about a 30 minute walk from my place. I came to find out that a park in the conventional sense is nothing at all like I thought. It was MASSIVE like, hugely huge. We are talking: Three Soccer Fields, Two Baseball Fields, and Three Tracks. Of course this is excluding the cool Cherry Blossom Garden and the sweet Kids’ Mystery Forest! I was blown out of the water. I checked out a baseball game, chilled with a few families in the garden… and almost played on the slides! It was pretty cool.

Tomorrow is my first day at work. I get to meet all the teachers from the six schools I will be working. I go to two Junior Highs, one every week, and an different elementary school once a week. The schedule looks pretty intense, but not as bad as I was thinking. Honestly, when I saw four elementary schools I started preparing all my lessons for that! Now I have to go back and kind of plan for Junior High instead. Oh well. All in all, it’s going to be interesting and I do have some photos to get up here… or at acornsandgold,… whenever I finish that, for now you will get them here when I am done with them!
