Ohisashiburidesune. It’s been a while since I’ve updated this thing so this entry is just going to be the highlights and info regarding the past week. Well, we’ve been going to class every day. Marcia and I have the greatest commute in the world. Every day we have only to walk to the subway (takes like 7 minutes for me, 2 for her), go one stop on the subway and walk the single block to the K... Read Full Entry

Love?

Wow
You are doing a great great job Erikku-san. I love reading your whole updates. I expecially love the maiko pics of the girls and the samurai pics of the guys. Hilarious. Anyways, volleyball is going awesomely here. We defeated Webster yesterday... first time in a decade. We both came into the match undefeated. We lost the first two games 30-24, 30-20... but we came back fighting in game three to win 35-33 (cause you have to win by two... the crowd was going CRAZY!!!)... then we won the next two games 30-20 and 15-10. It was awesome. We're now 7-0 in conference and 20-5 overall. ALSO, by beating Webster, we get home court advantage for the SLIAC conference on Nov 4 (i think that's the date). So good things there. Looks like you all are having a great time and I'm SO appreciative of your updates. Thanks so much. Keep it up!

You do look like a jeti in your photo...which is awesome. Hey CJ and I were wondering if you could post a couple of pics of lindsey up. She can't figure out how to post her own pics. Thanks friend. See you in a couple of weeks!

Hello friend!
I just wanted to let you know that I'm enjoying reading your entries, how exciting all the stuff you are doing. I know that you said you will be finding a job right away when you get home but MB and I will just have to come bug you before we leave for home :) Enjoy your last few weeks over these! I can't wait to see all of your photos, the ones you've posted so far have been really cool to see :)
