Do September flowers bring October showers? If you are living in Japan, they certainly do. Having grown up in Northern Canada, I am not familiar with the concepts of flowers in September or thunderstorms in late October. Yet, that is exactly what happened this morning as I was woken up by a nasty thunderstorm at 6am, and it persisted until around 8am. I believe Edmonton has a nice layer of snow down at this point. And as far as I know, snow is not known for its noise.
In other news, I made a visit to my High School to watch their annual culture festival(藤高祭.) I witnessed a live rock performance, a traditional Yoksakoi dance, and a number of great displays that outlined their previous year at the school. Sadly, there was no mention of their humble, yet energetic English teacher, Jason. Check out the photos link for a complete summary of the day, minus the thunderstorm.
