Random Memories of Joetsu

The cool Shrine with snow across from Ash's apt.

Homeless Grace. :)

5th Play Practice!!!

Tech got lots of new props done and dried them by the heaters :)

Cast played around a lot while freezing, but wolves got lots done. "Thriller's" coming along great and our outfits are coming together as well. :)

Only one for practice left 5 weeks from now and it's the Costume Rehearsal...yea! The weekend after that we start. 1st play here in Niigata-shi on January 28th.

My new friends...

When it`s cold outside and Christmas is right around the corner...

I find myself turning to my two new friends: my kerosine heater and little humidifier. BOTH WONDERFUL! `cept the heater can be scary if it`s on too long, fumes get to you...so I crack the window/door. But other than that, they keep me happy at home and WARM. We`ll see how our friendship grows this winter when it`s only gonna get colder.

Grocery Treat of the Week!!!

Peach tea, yum! I love bringing tea bags with me to school to drink in between class periods. Quite good on these cold winter days!

Pizza, well...more like thick Texas toast with tomato sauce, cheese, and some lunch meat. It fits perfectly into my grill cooker though and makes a great snack after school.
My favorite Japanese pickled food - Pickled Eggplants. This is a very acquired taste since not many people like this, but I find it good! I eat them every now and then with rice and some other hot Japanese concoction.
