Today I went to school to sign up for classes. I had my Japanese level check which I actually did pretty good in, but I still suck at Kanji. Signed up for 5 classes so I'm taking 15 credits this summer. It seems like a lot but all my junk classes will be done and I'll be able to concentrate just on the classes for degrees.
Tonight I went out with my host family for Shabu Shabu which was awesome! With Shabu Shabu you have a pot of water and oil over a burner on the table. They bring out all you can eat meat and vegetables that you put in the pot of water to boil it and eat. After that they bring a ton of Ramen noodles that you put in the water and eat with the water for delicious ramen soup. Then we had green tea ice cream for desert.
