I have been getting to know the college students in BEST club over the past few weeks. They are great people and have been very welcoming to us! Last weekend we all road-tripped to a nearby city and met up with another BEST club. The students made Japanese BBQ for lunch, followed by an afternoon of sports. The trip provided me an opportunity to relate with a few of the freshmen girls.
Starting Japanese Lessons:
This week I began my first Japanese lessons - yikes! I am eager to learn, and know it will require a lot of studying. I'll take lessons twice a week with a private teacher from the local church. I'm also looking forward to practicing Japanese with my roommates- they are quite willing to help! Every time I go grocery shopping, or out to eat with students, I'm reminded of how beneficial language learning will be! I'll be excited when I can read a menu by myself!
