Today me and my classmates gave our final presentations in front of everyone. The 3 people here who had never learned Japanese before did a skit modeled loosely after "Romeo and Juliet" which was a lot of fun to watch. Everyone else did speeches, I was the last person to go. I thought my speech went well, though I think I rushed it a bit and my Powerpoint was pieced together at the last minute. The teacher said that I did a good job pronouncing all of the religious terms. I:m happy that I finally got it over with, now I:m completely done with all my academic work for freshman year! Im a quarter of the way through my college life! Unless I go to grad school...
After class I went to the train station, withdrew some money, and walked through the mall again. This time I went up to the third floor, and found some shops that sell t-shirts for $15 instead of $175. I picked up a couple especially cryptic "engrish" t-shirts that I will give as presents upon my return. I also bought a "Thank You" gift for my host family that I:ll give to them Thursday night.
Things I am looking forward to in America (besides seeing Tyson): Eating pizza and burgers, eating mexican food, being able to read newspapers and watch the news, and not being stared at all the time.
