Wow! It snowed for the first time last night. Not the first time in history of course, but the first time since I've been living in Yamanashi. It wasn't too cold outside, but it's quite cold inside. I've been using the heater off and on all weekend. (Go figure. It is winter after all!)
I got a package from my host-aunt in Saitama, and it was full of delicious, easy to make food products. Apparently, I lost a little weight since two years ago, and she was nervous that I wasn't eating enough. So now she sends me packages with food every so-often just to make sure. ^_^
A friend from University is coming to Japan at the end of March, and we're going to spend a week traveling around. We are discussing places to visit and things to do while she's here, and I typed up a document about cultural things to be aware of. Having to see Japan from new eyes again is quite fun. I'm looking forward to her coming, and hoping to feel re-introduced to Japan through her eyes.
While I was searching for pictures online, I stumbled across this site. http://beta.phokki.com/
It is for people who want to alter a photo artistically. I might buy one some day when I go back to the US and have a photo I'd like to make interesting.
I've finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, and have moved on to Pride and Prejudice.
