Festivus

So, I need to lose weight again. Is it because I stopped exercising during NaNoWriMo? Is it because it's winter and human beings generally gain weight at this time? Is it because I've taken to eating nothing but microwave pizza with extra cheese?

Of course not! It's all because of Festivus, which we celebrated this past weekend. That one day of eating lots of turkey and stuffing is surely the sole reason I have gained five pounds.


Let the feast begin!


After Festivus, fellow Asahi JET Lewis hosted the after-party, where I got to meet Santa! The picture may look a bit blurry, but actually it was Santa himself who was out of focus. I blame the stress from his work at this time of the year.

I also took some video of people playing an EyeToy game, but my lame phone records the audio in an obscure codec, and I'm not motivated enough to convert it.

  1. Well I think it's a good blog! Festivus was truly "the bee's knees", as I believe some people say. I'm not sure I've fully recovered yet...

  2. Living in rural Japan is great. To JET or not to JET is the question, but in short - you won't find a better deal then the JET programme, for teaching English in Japan. If you want some happy stories on life here, check my blog.
