ski + SF

it wasnt the best trip i'd say
taking care of 7 boys who supposedly can take care of themselves was the hardest task
snowboarding = death
my legs were burbing afterwards
it was terrible
never again

still had fun tho
the tour guide we had in SF was awesome
he's very knowledable and he has a brit accent!
he left england when he was 17 to travel the world
the bus tour was a great way to get a brief overview of SF

auntie ruth opened up her house for us to stay at
the boys had to cram in the study room
the study room became a concentration camp
we had a lot of food
we had a dumpling night after SF
and a potluck on xmas day
when she also had a gospel sharing meeting

one thing i learned from her is that
we can careless about what people will think and just share the gospel

Super long winter break

Japan schools go by a different calendar. They start school in April and end in Aug (first semester), start school again in Oct and end in Feb (2nd semester). Since I'm studying abroad in Japan next semester, I 'll have a 3 month winter break. Basically, I'll have my winter break as summer vacation and summer vacation as winter break (only 1 month).
