:O I was putzing around with the blog stuff and clicked on the Blog of the Week link and lo and behold, my blog got made Blog of the Week. I’m really happy people enjoyed reading this ^^ I made it mostly so my friends and family had a convenient place to read about what I’m up to (and so I didn’t have to send a bunch of e-mails XD), so I never really expected anyone else to be interested in it lol. Now I wish I took more time to edit everything better XD So thank you everyone for the support ^^

Well, let’s see, we’ve been here 1 year and almost 2 months, so I guess we’re pretty comfortable now. At the beginning though it was a bit scary traveling around since we didn’t know so much Japanese or customs. Like for instance, a month ago I found out that the Japanese don’t eat curry with hashi (chopsticks), they eat it with a spoon. While it’s possible to eat it with hashi it’s not easy, so now I know why I always got weird looks at restaurants when I ate my curry with hashi XD I’m a huge fan of Japanese curry, I like it more than Indian curry, but Indian curry has more variety. There is an Indian restaurant pretty close to here called Ankur, and they make excellent curry and oishi (delicious) nan bread. I like their vegetable curry the best, but very much enjoy all the other kinds they do have. But wow, their spicy chicken curry is waaay spicy. I love me some spicy food, but I can’t barely handle it XD
