AM

8:25am JST Saturday 25 September 2004

Today I plan not to stay online all day. I want to want to study Japanese or Chinese.

Hitomi has started looking for aliens on seti@home. Her computer is rarely on, but once I told her about it, she was interested.

What's interesting to me is her stats when she's completed zero workunits. She's completed more workunits than more than 0 participants. Do some participants have negative values in their workunits completed field?

Work

4:48pm JST Saturday 25 September 2004

Good day at work today. I was grouchy at a couple points, but then I contrasted this work with teaching and I was like, "whoooooo!" cause this is soo much easier. Much better.

Asked the woman across the street her name and she gave her family name, which I promptly forgot. I wanted a first name like Mika or Shira or something.

I studied for about 20 minutes today. We were pretty busy, so I didn't have much time to study. We didn't really get a lunch break today.

dan party

8:40am JST Sunday 26 September 2004

We had a Christmas party last night at DW in Tsunashima. Dan and Kei (sp) declared that it would be a good time for a Christmas party, and Jen agreed since it turns out she and I have to work on Christmas and Boxing Day.

Hitomi and I arrived late because we had her lesson and something else before going out there. One thing I was really happy about: after having been at DW's for a while, I was like, man,it must be getting late, but it was only 9:30. I would be just getting home from Gaba if I still worked there on weekends. Awesome.

We chowed a bit and drank a bit (I had a Calpis Sour, a Calpis Water, and a Pineapple Sour)

Um... we exchanged presents and Dan got the chocolate that I bought and he liked the train tickets I brought him and I got a kiwi via Tetsuya I think. Aiko liked the little cup and saucer that Hitomi bought (at my recommendation), and Hitomi likes the little throw-a-ball and catch it game that she got. Overall, big fun.
