At it again

Happy Halloween Y'all.

Halloween is an American holiday. The reason is because Japanese don't exactly go door to door and say "trick or treat." In fact, most of the Japanese people I met didn't quite know the meaning of trick or treat. So really, it's one of those holidays that happened here in Japan, but was bigger in America. For halloween an American teacher held a halloween party at a local karaoke parlor "the Cat's Eye" we were to show up in costume and then *refreshments* would be served. We were also told that there would be food, but it was mostly snacks. It was a good party, I showed up in my Kendo "Samurai Josh" outfit. Some people said it wasn't a "real" costume until I told them that I paid over a hundred dollars for the whole outfit. Of course that all didn't matter because almost everyone who showed up was having a good time.

That day, however, I actually had kendo practice before the party so I went to kendo practice first and then to the party afterwards. In kendo we practiced pretty hard and I must of pulled a mustle or something, because this morning the top of my left foot really is hurting. I'm able to get around, but not without feeling some pain. So I'm limping again, but don't worry! The College has a nurse that happens to be in tomorrow. I took a look at the sick-bay schedule and, like all school nurses, everyday except tomorrow and another day this month they're open.

Some of you have asked back channel for a blog about a "day in the life of Josh." Basically, what a normal day is like so next blog post I'll try my best.
