		<description>Laura, wow, I haven&#039;t been online for a day and a bit, but I have already missed 2 of yours posts. I read through what every one said in regards to Shun&#039;s questions, and they sound pretty reasonable, don&#039;t they, lol! Naoki asks me the same questions all of the time, and like you I either say, that&#039;s the way it is, or because English is stupid!! lol

If you do decide to go for that job, I hope you get it! I will cross all my fingers and toes for you. Also, good luck to Shunpei for this week - I&#039;m sure he will fit in easily, and have a blast at school. I can&#039;t wait to see how quickly his English improves!! 

Hooping at southbank sounds like lots of fun. Who are you going with? Oh, I&#039;m definitely buying myself a hoop once I get back in Japan after the wedding! Will be asking you a couple of questions about which hoop you got around about that time!

Will be back in Oz not this monday, but next... Hopefully we can catch up sometime!</description>

		<description>I have not thanked all of you for your comments on the last post explaining the in and on to me regarding transport- Shumpei read the comments and now understands. Next time he has a question I told him to post it on my blog and let you all give him the answers so I don`t have to. He starts school on Monday though so hopefully he will be able to ask his teachers too. He is very nervous about starting school for two reasons- one he has to do a test and two he thinks he might be a lot older than everyone else. I doubt it, I am guessing the average age is about 25 and he is only 2 years older than that.</description>

		<description>Take heart - I read that the best way to lose weight is slooooooooooowly. like .5 to 1 kilo a MONTH. That way it&#039;s more likely to stay off. I have been within the same kilo range for a month, and I&#039;ve still enjoyed myself, so I think its the way to go. Don&#039;t stress - 100 is nothing!! :o)

I love Shun&#039;s belief about the birth. I think I&#039;d want my partner there, but up next to me - nowhere near the exit!!! I&#039;ve read that it can be pretty traumatic for a guy to see that part of it ;o)

The application is good practice, as annoying as it is too. I&#039;m happy to help if there&#039;s anything I can do?

I hope he has a good day at school too - I would be so nervous too! :o)</description>

		<description>Awww! Shun sounds so cute and funny! Bit of a worry about what he thinks about child birth though! LOL Send me of message on facebook saying which department you are at. Definately worth applying. Selection criteria isn&#039;t as bad as it used to be. They have limited it to a 2 page response.</description>
