ahoy.

My dear blog-readers,
I have had a busy, yet amazing, past few weeks.
It has been combined with:
Locker contests,
Bible Clubs,
Movies,
Bonding,
Amazing meals.
But I mostly want to blog about my adventure to Tokyo.

I traveld to Tokyo last weekend.
For some reason,
the bus was full of elderly people.
Seriously.
I was the only young,
let alone English-speaking, person.
BUT, they all loved me.
I'm not kidding.
I was given free candy,
a lot of "hellos",
failed conversations due to language barrier.
Millions of head nods.
It was an interesting experience,
but a enjoyable one.

Amy, Kazu and I watched Toy Story 3 this past Friday.
IT IS SO GOOD!
If you haven't seen it,
rent it.
Right. Now.
I'm so serious.
Don't continue to read the rest of this post until you have,
in some way,
remembered or actually "netflix"ed it's arrival.
Anyways, at the end of the movie,
we watched all of the bonus things.
When Amy and I were thoroughly enjoying ourselves,
Kazu suggested we go to Tokyo Disney Land the next day.
That was the most amazing suggestion.
Ev.er.

We went to the Park at 3pm on Saturday.
My parents took me to Disney World when I was just young enough to not remember anything.
I'm not bitter.

My dad took himself, Mr.&Mrs.Kato and I to Tokyo Disney Sea 2 years ago, and that was a lot of fun.
(That is a memory I will never forget.)
But at Tokyo Disney Land...
You have the castle, most of the main rides, all of the characters, the famous parades.
It was amazing!
If you haven't already,
I have an album on my Facebook with pictures.
Basically, I loved it,
and I'm so thankful to have gone.

I loved waiting in lines!
I was so excited,
full of energy
and did a happy dance when the line didn't move for 15 minutes.
:}
Captain EO- this was so good, and so funny! I loved it.
Space Mountain- I could've ridden this all night
Star Wars- It was good, but made me dizzy.
We only went on 3 rides because
1) it was really busy
2) the lines were 120+mins
We had fun walking around and looking at things.
ARound 6 we decided to get in line for Captain EO.
This was when my patience of waiting in line really shined.
It was only a 90 minute wait.
:}
After that, we got the middle/tail end of the electrical parade.
Right after that ended, we rode Space Mountain and Star Wars.
The lines were shorter.
---
The whole weekend I was with Amy,
I was laughing 85% of the time.
:} It was a really good weekend.

I have a new hobby!
I'm about to upload new pictures with it.
I'm not going to tell you what it is,
because perhaps you will be curious enough to adventure over to my Facebook..
to look at my
1) Disney pictures
2) my new hobby.
3) what I am going to talk about next..

Junko and I baked for 7 hours last night.
Today I made cards for 3 hours.
It was all for the students.
They have worked SO hard,
that we wanted to do something special for them.
They were the best sugar cookies I have ever made.
And Junko and I had so much fun decorating them.
Oh my soul.
It was so fun and funny!
7pm-1:45am.
The pics are on Facebook, if you want :}
But it so much fun,
and I hope the students enjoy them!

Well I'm going to go and make another...
thing...
(my hobby)


Please pray for Mrs.Kato and the family.
