Going back


I'm back in Japan. Not much has changed since I left and the big, bouncy earthquake happened. Lots of the new people who were supposed to be coming to our dorm seem to have got scared and didn't turn up. So my flat is quite empty; good. Also, Fanta bottles have had a redesign. That's about it.

New classes start tomorrow. I have a slightly nicer timetable this year. I don't have Monday off but all my business classes are now based a short, 5 minute walk away rather than 45 minutes by train. I may be getting more intensive Japanese classes though as there might be only 2 of us left to teach. The rest of my class was made up of French and Italian people. And they got scared and aren't coming back.

I've attached a picture of some 'sakura'. Japan's cherry blossom which appears for a few weeks in Spring that the Japanese seem to think is amazing. Looks fairly similar to Sandridge Road in the Spring to me. I don't see the fuss.
