Back to the school part

Well, I guess I'm finally getting used to these futon things. I was able to sleep in until 10 on Sunday. After finally setting on some Ramen to eat, we went back to working on homework most of the day. About 5, we headed to the city to see a Noh play. Now, I guess I don't understand enough Japanese to understand this type of play, which made it a little hard to stay interested for 2 and a half hours, but it was a cultural experience. It was hosted by the Noh school in Kanazawa, so it started off with some little kids performing Noh which was really cute. Once we got into the real Noh play, elaborate costumes shined in the lit stage in front of the Kanazawa Castle gate. It was really a site to see.

We got crepes on the way back to the bus stop. Yumm! Crepes in Japan are delicious! They're worth the trip alone.

The buses were near the end of their routes, so we hopped on a bus number that normally takes us back to campus. For some reason, it never announced our stop, so we just kept riding, hoping it would turn around and go back toward campus. Eventually the bus driver stopped and essentially said this is the end of the line, and so we started to get off. I guess he took pitty on us Americans though (because there aren't very many of us in Kanazawa) and he took us a little closer to campus where we would recognize where we were. It was really nice of him since he was off-shift and all, but I guess that goes with the normal actions of any service in Japan.

Monday was full of 5 hours of classes, and lots of studying for today because I have 2 vocab quizes, each over about 20-35 words, and a dialogue quiz. I better get back to studying and head to class.

Toodles!
