Food Poisoning........ not fun!

I didn't think it was possible in Japan with how totally safe everything is here, but last Friday I somehow got food poisoning.... I went to Salsa class on Friday night, and then out to our weekly drinking place, Kusa no Hana, but had to go home early with tummy pains...
After a night spent in the bathroom, throwing up from midnight to 8am, I asked my tutor to take me to hospital. (I had food poisoning once before and discovered that no, it does not just go away by itself!)
I was at the hospital for about 3 hours, got a quick check-up and was sent to bed with an IV drip! A first for me!! And then sent home to bed with a big bag of drugs...
A week later, I'm feeling alot better, but still have a bruise where the drip went in, and a bruised jaw from trying to sleep on the sink all night...
Not fun! :p

Snow on the Volcano!


It snowed! It snowed!

Last week we had 2 super cold days, and it did snow, but it was early morning so I slept through it.... but when I did get out of bed, I looked out the window and saw Sakura-jima dusted with snow!

To other news, I haven't heard anything from the creepy guy from last week, I think I scared him off with the boyfriend comment.

I had my first exam on Tuesday, and I have maybe 2 next week. The Tuesday exam was good, we just had to write an essay in Japanese on a subject of our choice.

I saw 2 movies, 'The Pursuit of Happyness' and 'Little Miss Sunshine'. I recommend them both! 'The Pursuit of Happyness' was so sad, but really well made and acted. 'Little Miss Sunshine' was just so funny, and it was non-stop drama/comedy, there was absolutely no boring bits! Go see them!!

OK so I have to go to work... but I don't wanna gooooo!!!!!! :'(
