SUUUUUUCCCCEEEESSSSSS!!!!!

cilantro....


...tomatoes....



..hurry up jalapenos'!!!!!!!



yesterday there was about one bud in each planter...when i check this morning is was pretty great to see them in action!!! it was a super nice day yesterday( except the fact that with this mop on my head i sweat like a pig :( ) but i guess it did wonders for the plants.. i really hope the jalapenos do something soon. i was worried because when i planted these guys it rained for three days straight and was raelly cold. i hear that's really bad for those suckers...but they're rising above hehe literally and i'll keep everyone posted on how its going :)

It's raining!!!

Luckily my hobbies are piling up lol. Learning more Weezer on my guitar....I have to say I love torrents!! You can just download the whole discography, but shhhh don't tell anyone ok ;)

Also, one of my students gave me this...it's called Jamaica but it's a pretty fun math game...she uses it on her students.


And I was supposed to play tennis today :(

Ok so here's how it works! The two black dice you add up and that's the number you need to reach. You do this by adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing the other numbers to get the total of the black numbers added up. This time it's 26...

Alright so please try and if you're still confused(insert name here) I'll explain :)

This one was easy though...alright so you need to get 26 right. What I did was add the 3 + 2 + 1 = 6...multiply it by 4 = 24, then add 2 = 26. Alright well it may not be the hardest but sometimes it gets a little tricky.

Ok so that's what i'm doing while it's raining.... here's what's been going on while not raining!!!









If you look really hard in that last one you can see a gray and black wild pig!!! And it almost charged on us....Probably the scariest thing yet I've encountered in Japan. On this hike on went on to see those beatiful waterfalls I also a monkey in the trees the size of a 2 year old!

Earlier on in the week I went up to the mountains and shot some arrows and bbqed all day!! Very fun stuff I recommend trying it :) Here's some of our food we grilled up....the first and last photo shot by a friend of mine...Eric, you can probably notice the diff becaus he has a really nice camera!





Anywho that was the past week in a nutshell....BBQed up in the mountains yesterday with some friend while raining..very fun!!!! This week is a holiday week, it's called Golden Week and a very busy time for commuting around japan. So I basically relaxed and did my thing. Caught up on some movies ie...

Royal Tenenbaums - so funny
Me, myself, & Irene (never seen....as a matter of fact it's still buffering)
Goonies(again)
Trainspotting
Shoot em Up!
ohh and finished Chuck season 2

...unfortunately I don't think there is going to be a 3rd season...ohh well. ohh...also finally planted my seeds my mom sent me...we'll be seeing pics of jalapenos sprouting soon and i will have day by day(!) photos hopefully :) I hope everyone had a good cinco de mayo....PEACE
