I am breaking the "Silence" ...finally! Sorry for the long absence.

I havent had enough time to sit by the computer that much this week, and for that i am sorry, but now i will post a long post... Hopefully :P (Maybe even with some pictures).

Here we go... Everything is great by the way, just to clear up that.

This two latest weeks i have done alot of things. I am running every day for about half an hour, the golf club is more like a "Track & Field Club with a little bit of golf thrown in"... But it feels great to be dead every weekend. :P The running is done at a nearby park that is called "Chikusa Park" Its really beautiful and its really big. We run 7 laps around it and then we are done. I havent gotten a chance to take any pictures yet because i have been busy running and i can never remember to take my camera with me. I will soon, i promise.

After the running, when everyone is really tired, we go to the school gym and work out for about one to two hours. Im the strongest one in the team by the way :P.

After the gym, the club is finished and we all go to change in to our bloody school uniforms again. They are really really warm and the training does not make it better.

On our way to the train station, wich is like 20 minutes away, we stop and buy something to drink at a little store. Its almost like 7 eleven, named "K". (I think) xD


Enough about running... We do actually play golf aswell.
Last saturday it was raining as if someone was pouring buckets full of water down everywhere. but we still went out on the course for a 9 hole round.

I was playing with "Lik-chan" and a guy i dont know the name of but i am allowed to call him "Johnson". Why? Because the first time we met, he held out his hand and said "Hello... Johnson!"
I think thats about his limit for communicating in english but we get along well anyway, i do know fairly much japanese by now. Because of all the socializing and the... I dont want to admit it... Kumon.

The round in itself was really enjoyable even though it was raining buckets full of water. I putted like a god and the other clubs worked fairly good, i ended up with 10 over par. Im satisfied.

I forgot to mention it, before each round we stand for like 3 hours just shooting at the range, luckily the range mats have roofs... all of them! Its fairly good to get the swing and the hit right but its kinda tiring.

The golf club members usually stay the night at the club and play another round on the sunday but i didnt have a permission form from yfu until this week so i had to go home.

This weekend i am going to stay for 3 days, we have a week of holidays next week, it fells AWESOME!

School is still kind of boring but im learning a little more stuff, im trying to follow the lessons but its pretty hard so mostly i am just doing by kumon. wich is becoming quite a challenge by now, im on level C... I started out on level 3A, and it goes on to 2A, A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H... and then there are more. xD im gonna do as many as i possibly can without overdoing it. xD

Today we changed seats in the classroom, i got a great seat. In the back of the classroom and with cool people around me. It couldnt get any better.

The english classes are not really anything for me, they are so easy. I dont have to do anything, i dont even get asked about anything anymore. They ask me some stuff during the history lessons and sometimes english about sweden, and then i answer.

Some funny facts about japanese high school students:

1. They eat all the time. Every time there is a break in between lessons they all pull out a sandwitch or something, and start eating. Im still full from the breakfast when its time for lunch so i dont really know how they can eat all the time.

2. Many students sleep during classes, in sweden we are not really sleeping during classes. The reason i believe is that the classes are so much more boring than the swedish ones. In sweden we have to be active during lessons. During japanese classes, all you do is listen to what the teacher says and write it down. Thats it. I can admit that the classes are really boring, and i think even more boring when you cannot understand them.

3. Most of them stay up at night really late, that may also be a reason to the sleepy lessons.

To be continued on this one :P


Yesterday everone had holiday, it was a red day because it was the emperor`s birthday. That day i slept for more than usual, i had to catch up on some sleeping. I have a long way to school so i get up pretty early.

After lunch, me, otoosan and okaasan went to a museum. It was a toyota museum of industrial technology, i think... But anyway, it was really interesting. Here follows some pictures.



This is a future car thingy that toyota would make or something like that, it was really cool though. Those lights could have any colour.

This is kind of obvious that its a broken carwindow, they showed some different glass types and how resistant they were against smashing.

This is a long line of car motors, Its not much to say about them. They are japan made.

This is the big car exhibition hall, it was quite intersting. It continues underneath the ledge i stood on when i took the picture.

This is toyotas first car, the Toyota model AA. apparently the guy who built it was studying the arts of carmaking in england. I think it is kind of obvious if you look at the picture.

This is the same AA model but in wood.

This was a house inside a bigger house. They had recreated that cardesigner`s workshop.


This was at the entrance, its a machine made by toyota that makes cloth.


Today i woke up and i was sick... Sick... I dont want to be sick. I went to school anyway to see if it got any better but i dont think it did. I dont have any fever or anything im just having some pain in my throat. Hopefully it will go away soon.

Because of my "Condition" i didnt go to the golf club training. It wouldnt be good to run and train with a cold.

Tomorrow i wont go either but, after the club tomorrow me and my friends are going bowling. Its gonna be really fun. I hope it goes allright. But it will be fun anyway.


Today we also had an earthquake drill, we went outside, folded our jackets and put them on our heads for protection and then we sat down in the middle of a parking lot, and i bet it was atleast 35 degrees in the air, it was "mecha takusan totemo choo atsui" :P. Which means something like "Very Many Very Extreemly Hot" :P
