I know we keep saying it but we really should get together. I am having hanami on the 24th of March in Inokashira Koen and a huge mix of people will be coming so give me a bell if you interested in coming. Amanda- I really should change my Bookshelf list...I am so lazy. I should upgrade it more regulary but the truth is I am usually reading such rubbish light weight books that I don`t want the world to know. I enjoyed Around the World in 80 days. And if you are looking for some good authors to check out try Janet Evanovich and Jodi Piccoult....very different but both fantastic. When I lived in Tokyo when I was a student it was overwhelming living here at first, but the truth is that is just so much fun that I don`t notice it. Plus I rarely find myself in conversations now were I have no idea what is happening...plus usually Shun is around to explain in Japanese that I understand if I need it. Plus I use English mainly at work. I only speak to the kiddies parents in Japanese...and my boss. Jac-SHHHHHHHH...don`t shout it to the world ;-) We will definitely have to organize something. So excited!!! Dinner sounds good! GG- Are you planning on staying in Japan for awhile longer? I know we keep saying it but we really should get together.

You have a cool taste in music. Does it sometimes get overwhelming living in a country that speaks a language different to your native language? I've just noticed your book list on the right! I've read 2 of them (Mitch Albom, yay, Dan Brown, not so yay). Have you read Around the World in 80 Dates yet? I've been looking at it in the bookshop for months, and I'm wondering if it's any good.

It's easy and so handy. -Simon and Garfunkle rock. -I always have vivid dreams about random people but rarely let them know that they've appeared. Wouldn't it be nice if we all turned around and told them they someone had dreamt about them. -I can't believe you're going to China - that's so exciting! You're making changes so the rest will fall into place :) -Yay for going with Google Reader. It’s easy and so handy.

Shun is in Australia with me until the 3rd early morning. I am thinking the Sunday or Monday night would be awesome!!! But I guess everyone will be really busy and will have work/school next day. I could maybe swing the Saturday! I know on the Friday I arrive I have dinner with the folks, bro and bro`s gf but I have been slack about letting other people know I am going to be back in Australia then. I definitely want to do something!!!!!!!!!! Jac~ I am arriving Friday April 27th and leaving Friday 4th of May. Shun is in Australia with me until the 3rd early morning.
