First day of school

Monday was my first day of school. I have classes in the afternoon so I didn't have to get up early. Tomohito, the son of my host family, came home for the night and since I was already in his room we played Janken (rock, paper, scissors) for the bed. I WON - and he had to sleep on the floor. When I arrived at the language school the next day I meet my old teacher Saitoh and he hasn't changed one bit in the three years it has been since I last saw him. He has got a daughter now but he still looks like a little boy himself :-) My first class was all introduction - in Japanese of course - but the teachers here are good at speaking at their student's level, so I understood most of what he was saying. After class was over I met with a Japanese friend of mine. I met her the first time I was in Japan and we have been writing a lot of mails since then. We went to a Japanese style restaurant in Shinjuku and had lots and lots of good Japanese food. It was a bit expensive but it was worth it. We sat in our own little booth with closing doors and the restaurant was very well decorated.
