It’s about 3 minutes to midnight on New Year’s Eve, and I’m hanging with my friend Isaac watching Star Wars and Drinking beer. As you can see from the picture, there is now snow everywhere and we are pretty much locked in here at the ‘ol apartment. In fact, my car is buried in snow. It’s almost just like Edmonton(Just not as cold) Looks like we’ll just have to watch more Star Wars. Anyways!!
Happy New Year’s Everyone!!!!

I had the chance to visit three awesome places last week.
1. Yokohama
2. Tokyo Disneyland
3. The Ghibli Museum.
I had a such a great time, I don’t think there are any words that can describe it. So please click on the picture and check out my adventure. It’s one week until Christmas, and this year, I’m having a blast.
Friday was a good day in some ways and a bad day in others. I scored my first goal on Friday with my new team. It was a nice back hand shot off a pass. Sadly, it was the only goal, and we ended up losing 7-1. Oh well. Can’t have your cake and eat it too; though, I never understand how anyone could want cake and not be able to eat it.
On Sunday I wrote the level 2 Japanese Proficiency exam in Sendai. It was not good. I don’t think I passed it this year. I wasn’t really expecting to, but we’ll see how it goes. Next year for sure. At least I’ve passed one exam. It was nice to be back at a University again(Touhoku University.) I’ll just have to keep crunching away learning new words and expressions for now. After all, the goal is to learn, and not just to pass. I would love to be proficient in both Japanese and English so that someday I could interpret and translate. Alas, today is not that day.
