Today did not have a lot of action in it. Fortunately, I used this time to recharge the batteries, which I needed badly as we are going on 7 days in Japan. I woke up and managed to make all the right trains and and to class on time without have to ask directions or run! It was nice to walk at a nice pace to some good worship music and a great sunrise in Makuhari.
After class I got to work some kinks out on my computer and practiced using the "GotoMeeting" interface so I can effectively lead a quick photo session on the first half of my experience in Japan. Just a note to everyone back home, I will be hosting a photo session/chat at 9pm CST (Texas Time) and 7pm PST (Oregon Time) on Thursday night, which will be noon here in Tokyo on Friday :) I hope everyone will check their email and join if you would like to.
After a quick lunch we had a lecture over Japanese Enka, which is their version of Folk Music. It was very interesting and had a ton on information on the history and culture Enka is founded upon.
I headed over to the nearby outlet mall that I had been wanting to check out ever since we drove past it when we toured Makuhari. Unfortunately, everything was not favorably price for college students traveling on a tight budget :( I did have a good time walking around in the fresh air.
Today and tomorrow do not include a lot of walking, which is nice to give the legs a rest and recharge for next week. We will have AN AWESOME SCHEDULE AND TONS TO DO! I cannot wait!
Hope to see everyone tomorrow, rather tonight for ya!
=)
