apples are so big in this country.  no wonder fruit is so expensive…  (contemplations on my breakfast….)

so neway

yesterday I was taken to an elementary school for the first time.  its quite different from australia, but of course similar at the same time.  The grounds are very different.  Only a few building, and they are tall and concrete.  and no grass for the kids to play on.  just dirt…..

They have lunch in side, and then have a set play time inside…..  not like the hour long lunch breaks Im was used to.

But the kids are cute (and i forgot how physical kids can get with each other..) and i had fun (even if it was only for a short time).

And i also joined the local video club – tsutaya!  So last night was spent watching hugh jackman….  *drools*  and partaking of some cherry wine  instead of doing my homework (oh well, tomorrow)

Actually Van Helsing was, um, an intresting movie.  In a way it was utter crap, not exactly predictable, but a bad script and predictable characters.  However, i did enjoy it becuase of that, takes me back to my xina fanatic days….  It was fully of action, and enough plot twists to sustain intrest until the end.  and Hugh Jackman….

thats about all.  going to look at some temples today. despite the rain…  its rainy season by the way.  unpredicable weather.  and like laura, ’20 deg’ has become ‘hot’.  The humidity stinks too.
