Last few weeks

Hallo everyone

The rainy season has finished so from now on only sunshine and heat.
I must say, that the rainy season was pretty much like one week of Scottish weather. That was it. Other areas had much more rain of course, some parts even 40 cm rainfall. I live in a lucky spot, I think.
So from now on: “sauna” for free, cold food, ice-cream and lot of cold water. Uma-san … I eat 冷やし中華 (hiyashichouka) almost every day… It is a heaven….

One week ago we went to Fuji ceremony. It was nice. I met lot of friends. Only for a short while, because we had to go back quite soon after ceremony. But it was good to catch up with them and exchange few phone numbers.

On the way back I have seen a Buddha with a massive penis. What a culture. It must be some kind of symbol, but I am not sure what kind. Anyway, just want to share a bit of interesting part of Japanese culture with you. You don’t see this every day, do you.  By the way, this statue is about one meter tall. Great for hanging your coat or hat. :-)



Soon my summer holidays will start, and I managed to get permission to work as well, so my mission now is to do final test which is on 26th and find a job. After the test, 2 months holidays, hopefully working.

Well that is I think all I have on my mind right now. 

At the end I would like to share a joke with you, I found it the other day. 
I wish all mothers would have such a sense of humour.
Clever and funny… Enjoy it …. 
As well as the life, cause even life is just a joke anyway…

A letter from Russian mother:

Dear Son,
Just a few lines to let you know that I be still alive. I writing this letter slowly because I know you not able to read fast. You won't know the house when you get home. We moved. There be a washing machine in the house when we move in, but it not working too good. Last week I put fourteen shirts into it, pull the chain, and I not see the shirts since. Your sister Natasha had baby this morning. I not find out yet whether it be boy or girl, so I not know whether you be an aunt or an uncle.

Your uncle Leopold drown last week in a vat of whisky. Some of the men dived in to save him, but he fight them off hard. We cremated his body, but it took three days to put out the fire. Your father not have much to drink at Christmas. I put a bottle of Castor oil in his pint of beer. It keep him going until New Year's Day. It only rain twice last week. First for three day and then for four day. Try to learn write me soon. Your loving mother, XXX
P.S. I be going to send you ten dollars, but I already seal the envelope.
