Dolpa 23 & Dollshow are coming!

Dolpa 23 is in 1 week and 5 days time!
I should probably be more excited about this.
If I had real money to spend I totally would be!

At the moment I'm hoping my credit card will work.
I haven't used it for many years and noticed some spending space. XD
Try calling he credit card company in the UK from Japan to let them know?
Do you have any idea how much that'd cost from my mobile phone??? O_O

We had classes last week in uni. They were more like into classes rather than actual classes, so there wasn't really much work involved.

This Mon-Wed they were performing medical examinations on every student in the uni.
I didn't like it much to be honest...some of the questions were too personal.
I have my first badminton class tomorrow. I haven't played for a very long time, so I'm a little nervous.

Next week classes are normal. I ended up with 7 classes rather than 8:
German class
Tennis class
Kanji class
Japanese expressions class
Japanese reading comprehension class A
Japanese reading comprehension class B
Badminton class

The following week is Golden Week. I only have plans to go to Dolpa and Dollshow that week...if you count Sunday 2nd as being the start of the week XD

After that it's back to the grindstone until August!
I'm starting a 2 hour a week job on the 19th May, but the pay is pretty decent at 5000yen for the 2 hours.
Would be nice to be able to do more hours though!

Uni Entrance Ceremony & Dolpa

The university entrance ceremony is on Monday. I've been warned to wear something nice.
The teachers didn't say anything about that, but a senpai(who showed up in t-shirt and flip flops last time) did.

We're supposed to have a medical exam in a couple of weeks time as well.
Our schools/universities don't bother by the time you reach high school.
Only in Japan I guess :S
Just like in an anime XD

Really though, I don't fancy queuing up all day just so the doc can tell me I'm overweight...I can well see that myself! If I hadn't destroyed my knee a decade ago, there's lots of sports I'd love to do!

I went to the Akihabara Volks store the other day to reserve my guidebook for Dolpa!
I should be receiving a postcard to say I can go and collect it from the store.
I'm guessing around 10th April.
I know I won't be able to buy any dolls, but it should be an interesting day out!

oh yeh! Sakura viewing festival on Saturday evening! Looking forward to that ^__^

dewa! gokigenyou!
