This week, I... returned from my road trip; am getting back into a routine (of sorts); began my TESL studies; tried to catch up on my Japanese; podcasted; added some photos to the photo page on this site; did a bunch of follow-up emailing and phoning to pastors of churches I've visited.
This weekend... I'm not on the road! I've been invited to a Japanese potluck being put on by the local Japanese Society -- which I never knew existed till this week. I think it's mostly university students. Anyway, I'm stoked. Not only do I love Japanese food, but it'll be great to meet some local Japanese folks, too.
Next week... I'm planning to interview my Japanese tutor Haruka. I need to do it for my TESL studies -- the assignment is to interview a non-native English speaker about their experience / struggles in learning English. But I also plan to talk about other stuff, record it, and use it for a future podcast.
And... I guess that's a wrap for this week.
