public holiday...
yesterday (thursday) was a public holiday. because of this, my k-boxing class was cancelled, so i figured i should do something somewhat active instead.
wednesday night i went to my last pottery class to pick up my now-glazed ceramics. since anna had said she wasn't that pleased with how hers turned out, i had prepared myself for the worst. and then i was pleasantly surprised. the one thing i made that was my favourite was a koi-shaped figurine which i had glazed a greeny metalic colour. it came out looking decent, so i was happy with that. misael made a few things, including a pot with a crazy face on it, in which the water can come out it's mouth. his stuff came out pretty nicely too.
after class i stopped by anna's and we watched the rest of the BBC version of Pride and Prejudice. and i now agree with all the brits - colin firth is hontou ni kakkoi in that. we also did some crocheting as anna wanted to learn how to make a hat. a very wholesome evening ;).
thursday afternoon i picked up tomoko and we drove just outside of shibata to where there is a dam with a trail that circles the entire thing. the whole loop takes about 2 hours but we walked fast fighting the cold wind and made it in about an hour and a half. the colours of the leaves were just about right and it was a very enjoyable afternoon.
this weekend kate and laura are coming up from tokyo...very tanoshimii!!!
by the way...mj and mum and nico...spoke to the popster last night.. besides raving on about the fate of the Netherlands in the hands of the "right-winged nazi's", and the 'hypocracy of the soft substance laws', we had a decent conversation and a few chuckles.

we watched the bbc p and p a couple of weekd back and i agree... Colin firth is sexy. never would have thought I would say that. He and the leading lady were dating at the time and that's why the chemistry was so firey. ok, i'm a geek and need to move on.
nope, still did not find him sexy. By the way how is the coffee thing going?
mj, as part of your AV club?
yup, coffee thing going well, suprisingly!
