Few days behind again

Sorry about that. Not sure why I let it happen. Time to catch up.

Thursday: My dad got me up a little before 8:00... I had hoped to sleep in, but with my dad here it wasn't happening. I had breakfast with him.... Yogurt! I love Japanese yogurt.... Mix in a little sugar, then dip fruit in it.... Oh, so good! I had apple slices with it, since we were out of strawberries. Absolutely delicious!
After that I used my computer for a bit. My dad was working on my grandma's computer, so I went in the office with him.
At a little after 10:00 I went with my grandma and aunt to Jasco (or however you spell it). My dad stayed home to do some work. We got a couple 2nd grade kanji books, some takoyaki for lunch, and I bought lots of snack foods for Kento and me. I also did some stuff with the dekagochis.... This time I got 300 gochi points on the game one, but spent way more than that with the tamamarket one.
After that we went home and had lunch. Takoyaki.... Really good takoyaki. I think the herb salt one was my favorite. So so good....
We watched the world baseball classic game while we ate. Japan against Korea. Japan lost to Korea in the Asia series, but as 2nd place they got to go to the world classic anyway.... :) We tuned in a little late in the game, probably about the 6th or 7th inning. Apparently we hadn't missed much though, as the game was still 0-0. It remained so until the 8th inning, when Korea got two runs in, putting them in the lead. Japan managed to get a home run in the 9th inning, but it was only a one run homer. They were still behind one point. They got someone on first, so we were hoping for the best..... A batter was up, great hit, going... Going... Going.... FOUL! It was so close! We thought we had it for sure, but no! A foul! Ugh..... Japan lost 2-1.
I later found out Japan still had a chance, however. If America lost to Mexico after allowing at least two runs, Japan would advance to the semi finals! With such rules, however, it seemed unlikely.
After the game I don't think we did anything special.... Computer, dinner (sukiyaki!), bath, sleep... That kinda stuff.

Friday: My dad left in the morning.... I don't remember being woken up or anything, though you never know with me. But anyway, I slept until about 9:00. I decided I didn't really want to sit through the graduation.... As much as I like the 6th graders, the graduation practices were enough for me.
I got up and had yogurt again... This time with strawberries! Yum! My grandma was somewhere.... I'm not sure where. After breakfast I went back to my room and goofed off on the computer.
My grandma got back later, and informed me that we were going to Ishido-san's house for lunch. Gyoza! :) Yum! This was all fine by me. Yuutaro and Nanako came too.
Ishido-san picked us up, we ate, we played for a while.... It was fun. Then she brought us back home, and I resumed my computer use.
I didn't find out until later that America had indeed lost to Mexico, 2-1. You know what that meant? Japan was going to the semis! :) They would seek revenge.... Playing Korea for a third time! I had really been told earlier, but misunderstood and thought they didn't make it. I think I found out on the news.... But I can't remember for sure. My dad called and told me also. :)

Saturday: I got up around 9:30.... Grandma and I were being picked up by some people at 10:00 to drive around and go to lunch and stuff. We went with them, and the first place we decided to go..... A strawberry farm!!!! :) Basically we paid, and then they led us into the greenhouse where we had 30 minutes to eat as many strawberries as we wanted. The catch... They all had to be eaten there. We couldn't bring any out. That was fine by me.... I had skipped breakfast (woke up too late and didn't want to bother), so I dove right in! The berries were so sweet.... So delicious.... It was great. Absolutely great!
After we were all full of berries, we drove a bit.... To a dam. I'm not entirely sure why, but we did. It was nice... A very nice day out.
After walking around a little, we went to lunch. Soba... Yum! It was my first time having real soba.... And I loved it! I got some amazingly delicious tempura too.... Yum yum yum! It was so good!
After that we drove to a flower place, where grandma bought some flowers.... I petted a kitty that tried to eat me.... And saw some HUGE koi! Then we dropped by the strawberry place again, this time to buy a box of berries to bring home. After that we were dropped off at home.
I got on the computer for a while after that. My dad was coming at around 7:00, but I had a few hours to kill... So I did online stuff.
At 7:00 my dad came. I was talking to Kento about iMacs and all that good stuff. We were discussing what to get with our iMacs... Kento decided to get one too. I'll probably go with the 20" though, and he's planning on the 17".
I said bye to Kento, and we ate dinner. Good dinner. Chickeny stuff, pork stuff, inari, and stuff. Lots of stuff. Stuff I don't really know how to explain.
After that I got on the computer again, and talked to Kento more. My dad finally told Kento to go to sleep after a while, so he did. After that I e-mailed, played games, and stuff. Regular what I do online stuff.

Sunday: That's today! I got up around 9:00... And had yogurt and strawberries again! :) My dad had already eaten, but he watched TV. He stayed until about 9:30, when he had to go again. I said bye, then got on the computer again.
Pretty soon Kento was on, so we chatted. He was at work, but didn't really have anything to do. We chatted most of the day.... Just about stuff. I played games and whatnot while we did so. At around 2:30 or 3:00 I suddenly realized... Japan was playing Korea again today! I turned on the TV, and found the game still on... Yay! It was the bottom of the 8th inning, so I was pretty late..... But Japan was leading! The score was 6-0. Apparently Ichiro was right when he said they wouldn't lose to the same team for a third time! They had an amazing 7th inning, which I wish I caught.... I read the play-by-play online, and it sounded great! Five runs in the 7th, one in the 8th.... And Korea still hadn't gotten any! I watched the very end of the game.... Japan won!!!!! YAY!!!!!!! They took advantage of the second chance they got and did it! They beat Korea and advanced to the finals!!!!!! The final score was still 6-0. Japan will play Cuba on Tuesday (Here... Monday in the US).
After the game I kept talking to Kento.... We talked until about 6:00, when I had dinner. Oden, if I'm spelling that right. It was yummy!
After dinner was my usual Sunday thing... I was picked up for the English Bible study. It was my last week, so they had a cake that said "Good Bye Emi" on it with chocolate chips. :p And I had a goodbye candle.... That was interesting. :p They didn't sing though. ;) Well, not besides our usual singing at the end, anyway....
We got into some pretty good stuff today... Lots of stuff about temptation and how far it has to go before becoming a sin. We also talked about the "eye for eye" phrase, and that brought me to wondering about the death sentence, so we talked about that a little bit too.
I think it was about 9:30 when we finally finished that up... We sang a bit, then prayed. They prayed for me, which was really nice.
After that we chatted for a bit longer.... About various random things, varying from ice cream and cheese to America's justice system. Like I said, various things.... :p
I got to stay a bit longer than they usually let me.. ;) We left last, while usually I get brought home first. I enjoyed that. Staying for the various chatting was fun.

That's been about it the past few days. I haven't really had much exciting stuff to write about, though when you get it all together it's quite a bit, isn't it? Anyway, I'm hoping to get some reading in before bed, so I better go get to that! :) I'm really enjoying LOTR... Good stuff!
