I did not feel like Yokohama...
I thought I was going to Yokohama, the second largest city in Japan, but as I was sitting in orientation class and thought to myself as she described that it is very large and very crowded city that I hate large and crowded Japanese cities. I decided for my field trip which I'm expected to write a little report to go to see the Big Buddha in Karakura. I went to the train system feeling confident that I had conquered the Japanese train station and proceeded for the next one and half hours to get on and off the wrong train. At one point, I thought about just going back to base, but I stuck it out and finally got to the right stop. The Big Buddha was so big, I thought the name was very fitting. There were hundreds of school children at the Big Buddha. School children are very cute here because they all have to where the same color hat depending on what school they go too. I said good-bye to Buddha and walked to the beach. It was full of people and a cute couple was sitting on the beach hugging and kissing on another. It made me miss Rosalind. I think her and Monkey and Magee would have enjoyed the beach. However, the sand is just gross. I don't even know if it is sand it seems like dirt. Anyway, I could not find anything to eat even though there were a hundred restaurants. I just did not feel like pointing today. I got back and went and got this rice patty thingie I like and walked down to Blue street. I guess it would be like Decatur Street. I went into a Chinese restaurant and ordered chicken I do not know what they served me, but I did not eat it. I tried, but ended up at Chilis again at least I ordered something different. In closing, I have been told and am well aware that my grammar skills and spelling could use some work. I just want to say my mom, rosalind, and karen can tell you I have always had issues with spelling and phonics. Well one more day of orientation.
