Day 118,119 and 120: Super busy day at work, Package to and from Norway!

Hello!
Wednesday 3th of June
Second period today was Japanese, and we had our first mid-term exam! It went ok ( I hope we get the results on Monday next week), but my brain forgot all my japanese vocabulary xD Haha! Exam is not good for the brain. So it ended up with a very "childish" feeling because I used simple words etc. I really need to step up my game, haha!

This is actually the first time I had a propar bento! I made it yesterday, so I didn't have to get up any earlier than normal. It's vegetables, salmon with a spice rub and grilled corn. It was very good! And all in all it only cost 300 yen (20 kroner). 
 After Uni it was time for work! On wednesday I am at work with Theresa, but she was sick so I had to be alone today. It was kind og crazy because it was packed with students today. I barely had time to give homework before they went home. On wednesdays it's devided into 4 periods, 15:30-16:30, 16:30-17:30, 17:30-18:30 and 18:30-18:55. Different students come to different times and some student are there for more than one period. So it's a lot to have have control of, not only that but theirn name is in kanji that I have to look up in my notes each time, and that's time consuming. I'm slowly starting to learn some of the names, but it takes a long time. When I was done the sunset was very nice:

My day off <3 It was very nice after the stressfull day at work yesterday~ It's so relaxing to eat a late breakfast and just enjoy the food. 
 I was chilling in the livingroom with my AWESOME watermelon and a cup of tea, when I got a message from Lånekassa that my application for money STILL had not gone through the system. Lånekassa still said that my home University had not given the correct information, even though the University said to me they had done it. Super frustrated I sent an urgent mail to my contact person for my study abroad and asked why Lånekassa agve me this message when it was supposed to be in order. This was suppossed to be fixed for 2 months ago... Then it turned out to be a fault in Lånekassa's online system. Luckly this got fixed and I hope to get my money soon. 
I also got around to send my package to my sister! I bought a lot of different thing and of course some gifts that my nephew wanted ^_^ The lady at my local post office was VERY nice :) She spoke slowly and clearly so I could understand what she said~ 

The rest of the day went to make my presentation for the Social change in Japan-classs. Later I went to Jimmy's place to company him while he was feeling sick. 

Friday 5th of June
I went to school from Jimmy's place and while on the train, Penny called me. My package had come at the door and I needed to sign it in order to get it. I asked if Penny could sign it for me and she told me she would call me back soon. She called back and had signed the package in my name, haha! No problem, right, all white people look the same and have weird names! xD 

At Uni the presentation went well in the Social change in Japan-class and we ended up with some very fun and interesting Gender-discussion. After Uni I was super excited to get my packaged (which was store at the front desk) and my mom had bought me alot of awesome food!
 Lol, julepapir!
 Look at all the stuff! Most important is the cheese slicer for my brown cheese!


THANK YOU MOM!!!

Day 30: Language exchange nr. 2

Hello!

So today I had my second language exchange with Moe-san! This time we went to her shared house and she brough snakcs for us! We were in the livingroom/kitchen as you can see. She even bough my lunch because I forgot my wallet! It has never happened before... It was 300 yen (20 kroner), so she was like "it's fine, I can buy it for you". So nice :) We talked for about 2 hours, and we translated sentences, wrote down words, talked about her job and many other things I don't remember xD She also worked with an english papir, so I helped her with that. While we were in the livingroom a couple of people came in and was very confused xD One japanese girl were there just to pick something up, but an italian guy stayed for a while and we included him in our conversation. He was super eager when I told him I'm norwegian. "This is my first time meeting a norwegian person!" He said: "that's so cool!". He wanted us to meet again with more people from the house so we can have a language exchange with like 4-6 languages! It sounds awesome! 


While I had my language exchange Jimmy was walking anround exploring the area. Here are his photos:



















 When I was finished, Jimmy and I went to Ueno
 Because we can't take serious pictures xD
 :P


 Famous street in Ueno: Ameyayokocho







 Jimmy takes the price for "coolest pose"!




 Cutiepie!
 After walking around we crashed at an internet- and mangacafe! I've always wanted to go to one! You pay for a "booth" with internet and/or manga. You can drink as much as you want to (soda, tea, coffe). Then you read and relax :) We stayed about an hour I think before we were going to eat with some of Jimmy's friends from school.

 We went to a Vietnamese restaurant to have a "goodbye" party  for one of Jimmy's classmate. But showed 3 hours late like nothing happened...That was very weird. We were supposed to go karaoke but everything was a mess and Jimmy and I was tired so we went home. It takes 40 min to get home, so we didn't want to wait for a karaokeroom and then be there maybe 2 hours. 
We ate salad, spring rolls, soup, corn, fried chicken, spearribs and dessert. Here is the soup with glassnoodles and beef.
 I look so tired xD omg
 Here is the dessert which was AWFUL! But Jimmy liked it!
