Get Busy

Weekends can be pretty boring when your TV speaks to you in a different language and shows programs of Japanese stars you've never seen before. On the other hand, they do force me to get out of bed and on with my day. Generally I plan one outting, one cooked lunch, and one experimental Japanese treat.

There is a Muji store not far from me which has been my source for weekend entertainment this week. They are a "No Name Brand" store that is pretty popular on a global scale, and the great thing is that most of their regular stuff is inexpensive. I keep debating whether or not to by a rug and some cushions to make my room a bit more "homie," but I think I'll wait and see if I will have any potential guest.

I think yesterday I spoke two sentences BUT they were in Japanese, which means that I spoke 100% Japanese for an entire day. "This one please" and "Thank you." It's funny when I program phrases like "thank you" into my mind to the point where if anyone asks me anything I just reply with "thank you."

ex. [in japanese]
Someone: "So how has your week been so far, are you enjoying Japan?"
Me: "Thank you?"

But I've got to admit it's getting better.
I wonder if the electronic store is open on Sundays.

May today's adventure begin!
