long long time no blog again. been busy. so here's a brief lil update:

17th Dec - school's Xmas Party!! one for the kids and one for the adults. somehow i feel tt this yr's parties were not as popular as in the past. but still had a great time nonetheless.

22nd Dec - last day of school! hello to 2 weeks of holidays!

23rd Dec - went back to school for big clean-up!! worked from 10am till 5pm!! my air-con was super dirty (tt explains why it didn't seem to work well). anyway, while i was cycling to school in the morning, i had an accident with an Obaasan. suffered a big bruise but i think the Obaasan was more badly hurt. but she still went to work. i felt so guilty. also went for my last dance class of the yr at nite.

24th Dec - ran a lot of errands, settled many things i hadn't had time to do. also brought a lil present to the Obaasan (who sells fish in Kansai Supa) and she gave mi some dried cuttlefish in return.

25th Dec - Ping & her brother arrived in Kobe!! went to fetch them, then rushed to Sannomiya again for my Japanese class (juz started 2 weeks ago). after tt, showed them ard Kobe (Sannomiya, Motomachi, Harbourland) b4 we headed back to the apartment for our lil Xmas Party!! (3 of us, J & her mum & bro & fren, our housemate, boss & wife) think i drank a tad too much. =Pp

26th - 28th Dec - went to Hiroshima!!!! had a hard time travelling via Youth 18 tix. stayed in Ping's former homestay family, who really took great care of us. met up with ANA ppl, my former homestay family, and visited the dormitory we used to live in. really brought back lotsa fond memories! but ate wayyyyyy toooo much!!! cos everybody we met would gave us a big treat. hee~ i really like Hiroshima ppl!!

29th Dec - had a day of fun in USJ!! spent a great deal of money too, but really enjoyed the various rides. queueing for the rides in the cold weather was really unbearable though.

ok... gonna hv more fun upcoming i think. =)
