Lost...

After todays class I decided it was time to take drastic action and reduce the lecture load. Went up to Takano sensei 先生 (master, teacher etc.) and told him that I have grave difficulties in following all the classes and do the homework for it too. Better to do some subject well then all of them on a mediocre level. He says he understands and will try and come up with a solution. Skip two hours probably per week. That would definitely help.
Have to meet Aki, my tutor, at 14.00, since she is organizing a party for all of the students and their tutors. I hope that it will work to get all of them together on the 2nd November.
From the home front: Paul is entertaining plenty of people at home with drinks and dinners and is following a strict running schedule for the NY marathon on the 6th november. Maybe he will try and go over to Brighton for the weekend for Sandra's birthday (today actually) .
Will let you know about Takano sensei's decision.
Booked my fights to go to Tokyo 東京　from 17 thru 20 november and will see Shigemi (Japanese) and Damion (american), two friends I met in Kobe. Should be nice hanging out with them in a big city once again.
