Back again.
Christmas was cool. Not as good as what it was back in Britain, but we managed. Since all the guys were up it was much better.
We got up rather late on christmas. So I had to cook dinner rather quickly. Since there was no turkey I used six huge Chicken Breasts. All in all the meal was brilliant. And there was shit loads of food, but nothing got wasted. After the dinner we ended up playing MarioKart Doubledash on the Gamecube that Steve bought. It's one of those games that if you get too into it, you lose friends. And I'm one of those people! God those bananas piss me off! Little creeps (the other players) leave them just as you come out of the pipes so you lose your balloons and Die! But anyways.
On Monday we had the crazy Idea of going into Sapporo for a few days. That was cool. We got on the wrong bus at first. We thought it was the right one, but it headed in the opposite direction so I had to ask just to make sure if it was going to Sapporo, which it wasn't. So we had to wait an hour and a bit to get on the bus that took us to Sapporo, to find that if we had just waited two hours in the house, we'd have been able to get on that bus, cos it picked up people from Toya!
Anyways. We arrived in Sapporo and went for a wee walk, until our bellies took control and we had to find food. We went to a Bikkuri Donki (lovely place, I think I've mentioned going to one in Date).
Then started the hunt for accomodation. Steve had his guide out and we wanted to go to a Youth hostel, but we noticed that there was a Capsule Hotel in the Area we were walking! So we went to it and booked in then went to a bar that I7ve been to before in Sapporo, Rad Brothers. We got a little bit Tipsy, then went to a Club, which we had to pay 3000 yen to get into! It turned out to be very very empty. So we left and went to a bar. But I was feeling very tired so I left for the Hotel again.
Since the Bath place was free. I decided to use it. Very Very Good Idea. It was so relaxing and empty, I felt so at peace. I even fell asleep in the Jet Massage Bath!
After that I crawled into my capsule. They are very very comfortable. Not too hot, not too clod. I fell asleep right away. I woke up a little because i heard the guys come home. At 5am.
Woke up the next day, felt excellent. Had a stroll around Sapporo with Steve and Paul and bought four books and Super Mario World for the GBA. We also found this really nice Juice Bar with a waitress that spoke very good English. we sat around to pass the time, spoke with her a few times and then we said goodbye and went to Catch our bus back to Toya. I had to make sure it was going to Toya, so that required more Japanese Skills (Sugi no basu wa toya-mura ni ikimasu ka?) It was going to Toya so we got on and slept until we got there.
We got home and the house was still the same way we left it, (not that I expected anyone to clean it, but it would have been a nice surprise) But I swear to god, I will not tidy that house again while the guys are up. I've cleaned it from top to bottom, apart from Steve's rrom, twice now since the guys arrived. Once while Konrad was playin R. E. 4 and once before that when they were doing something else, and they didn't even bother to ask whether or not they'd give me a hand. So they can do it themselves this time. If they even bother. By which time it'll probably ber clean because I'll have gotten fed up with the mess and in a rage cleaned it all myself again.

Anyways. Thats all from me for another few days!
Don't forget to post if you read please! I do actually care about what you write.
Thanks

Glad you had a nice Christmas, I had a nice Christmas too. Wish I was in Japan, and will get round to it some time, especially since I see that you are having a good tme too. What is it you will do when you get back? The rest of your degree? Is it in Liverpool? Then what do you think you will do? I am learning Japanese at Queens, but only two hours a week in a nightclass, so not very quickly- but I'm pretty good with languages so if I keep at it who knows. Anyway, blathered on enough.
You take care.
