So today was a good old pday, ya know they aint nothing like the MTC. In the MTC pday's are just like chill out and sleep and work out and and go to the Temple every week. Pday's here are just another day of dendo (missionary work) with buying groceries added in. Each day, every day, always been busy, pretty tired.
Oh another surprising thing I forget to tell ya, they always play american music anywhere we go it seems like. We were just listening to the Dancing queen, Mama Mia song. We went to mizuno shimai's house again, she is this super awesome, a super nice lady just to have some nice conversation with her because she is lonely. We do service for her, she gives us ice cream because well she is awesome, its so nice as she is always so happy to see us, just so we can talk, and always makes food for us, it is a wonderful relationship. She loves on top of this mountain, it is a tough bike ride. Ali would hate it because there are spiders everywhere, like nice big spiders! You look up at a telephone line and its just webs everywhere spiders every inch. Sometimes for fun we just get a scythe and smack um to death. They are everywhere in rural areas and a few in urban areas.
We talked to one our youth takashi who is planning on writing essays for BYU and wants us to help him. He is very good at English but still here and there not learning. And its crazy, he is planning the branch Halloween party all by himself. Its like wow, ok just throw it on him, but I guess hes okay with it and seems to be doing good with planning.
We are always studying a ton, followed by kubari kai (speaking to people/handing out English flyers) and one day this week we ran into a couple Jehovah Witnesses who were cool. We were just there and they came by and talked to us. They were nice and just explaining how they have been on a mission for eleven years and been to all kinds of countries. Which is cool, we just talked a little and then my companion invited them to our Halloween party which was interesting because, well they don't celebrate any pagan holidays and I corrected him mid-sentence. Which was kinda funny, anyways they are interesting because they just sit there on the side of a train station seeing if anyone if paying attention.
So this week we had an eikiawa class or English class for kids which is always fun, and this time we gave them some candy because it's Halloween, then played some kakurenbou (kanji- means hide boy) which is hide and seek, then we played some takkyuu (ping-pong) because one of the kids wanted to play it. So we had a little fun, then went to this school having a matsuri (festival) which was kinda crazy like every classroom decorated itself and then you could go to each one and it could be anything from a little show, a safari tour, a room full of balloons...tons of kids recognized us because we are always walking the street. We saw this hip hop dancing and cheer leading performance, it was great, and we talked to a bunch of the youth. Then finally had a Halloween party at the end of the day where we played musical chairs, bases, rapid fire charades, had some awesome food. It was pretty fun, the best part was all of our friends came that we invited except for one, but was awesome to see them there, we got to enjoy some time together and they even stayed after to help clean up they are practically members already.
Things are going great today was definitely a fun day. Love you all!
