6-24

This is my one day of work this week :) With meetings and my off day and then having the rest of this week for our intern retreat today has been my only work day. I had plans to meet one of my contacts today at my university, but she was unable to come. So then she offered having one of her friends that I met last week to come meet me. So of course I was willing! Well it ended up that she couldn't come either, so i stuck with Brian one of my teammates and met with his contact! It ended up being one of the girls birthday!!! We had a small celebration together and sang happy birthday in english to her! Her friends brought her an amazing cheesecake with tone of whip cream and strawberries on it! For those of you who don't know... i can eat a zillion strawberries and if i wouldn't die I would eat tons of bowls of whip cream! :D so i was so excited about this precious girls cake! It was great and I was eating tiny bites because I didn't want to steal her cake... so let me just share with you the girls laughed at me! they were like you are AMERICAN why are you eating Japanese size bites! lol i thought but was funny :D After the short birthday party the girls crashed out on the table and funny thing is i was in the middle of them, so I decided to read one of the books I am reading this summer. Screwtape letters. So i was able to read a little bit before they woke up and had to go to class. After they left I went to meet Brian and the basketball club that we have been meeting with! They had about 15 minutes left, so i went in to watch with them. I love these facts.... #1 You don't wear shoes inside the gym. #2 You wear whatever you have on, girls may be wearing dresses playing basketball! #3 you trip on a basketball if it rolls at your feet #4 You laugh hysterically at the girls :D #5 They do not know the rule of no TRAVELING!!! It is so much fun to work with the basketball club here at our university :D After their practice they all went to class and Brian and I headed home because we were pretty gross. It rained today as we walked to our university, so our shoes were slimy and stunk! We got back pretty early and slowly the other teams trickled into the apartment with the same rain problem! We leave in the morning for our retreat we are all very excited! We will be at one of the five lakes created by Mt. Fuji's eruption! WOO HOO! I am stoked! Katrina and I made some videos for some of my friends along with some of the guys! I mentioned how we make our apartment fun and let me tell you it was great!
