update

yeah yeah, i know.. i havent updated for ages. i still havent got my bali photos up yet either. its almost as bad as tom's updating...

been away from my office heaps over the last few weeks and that is normally where i do the updates cause i keep my photos on the work computer.

so as soon as we got back from the relaxing bali trip it was head first into the busiest few weeks i have ever had.

- visited a primary school
- had lots of meetings about orientation of new jets which i am coordinating
- had a few good bye parties for people leaving japan soon
- taugh aussie culture to high school kids at 2 schools
- climbed mt tsukuba
- run the childrens art show at NHK for a week
- taught english on NHK for 2x15 min shows
- got my drivers licence
- cleaned up and packed up the art show
- went to tokyo to welcome new jets
- now back in mito getting ready for second wave of new jets next week

this weekend is the Mito Festival, so it will be firworks on friday night and dancing all day in the parade on saturday. i did it last year too and it was crazy. will try and get some photos.

anyways, time to get to work....
