こんばんは！！

みんなさんが、こんばんは！！

Its been a while since I made a post. I've rather distracted :P I'm really enjoying life here in Japan and I am so happy here. A friend made a comment saying that life here suits me and I seem really happy. Which I can never deny. Things are so much better. I go out and meet new people. Even though for a sad reason of two teachers leaving the City I live in and have both helped me since I arrived. But I was able to meet their Japanese friends and get to increase my circle of friends. I am very happy to have met such amazing people who have welcomed me and talk to me. Although there might be a slight language problem. But I am trying my best to study. However, its hard when people speak so fast. I cannot understand most of the words. But I am here to learn the language. Sometimes my friend can talk to me in full Japanese, expecting me to fully understand. But if anything, it makes me want to punch 'em.

やった！それは夏休みだ！！

Summer vacation (夏休み） is here, well for almost two weeks or so. I haven't been any where yet. But that's because I am saving some money ready for the next two weeks which is when I can travel more around Iwate Prefecture and take some lovely photo's. Plus there is a Beach Football event going on next weekend which I am going to watch. Its something different and its with the new friends I have met.

I also went to my first festival in Japan on Wednesday. It was only a small festival about the health and exorcising your demons (hope that is the right phrase to use). But my friend and I didn't go to the Shrine as we are both 外国人（foreigner). We didn't feel it was right to go to the shrine and not really understand what to do.

There has also been some development in the love aspect of my life. I don't want to go into that right now. I have a lot of people who are probably interested in my love life, but I don't want to jinx anything.
