Time to blog.. and what a lot I have to blog about!

It has been a crazy time in my eyes in the last couple of days so far!!!

First of all, gotta talk about going to B'ham and that trip. *that started on Wednesday afternoon*

So.. The trip going up there was nice; got a haircut and trim from the local barber, got some pizza and headed for the station. Made sure i got the receipt and headed to B'ham. It took me 2 hours to get there and the journey was nice. (also first time I used my laptop out and about as well in a way).

Heading to B'ham

Once I got there, getting the bus was interesting; because I didn't know exactly how to get to the hotel, I got off one stop early and realized that the stop I wanted was only about 5 mins walk away. The manager was real nice and told me how to get around. I ironed my clothes, took some pictures of the place, practiced my presentation and went to town to get some food.

My room

 At first, walking around there was cold, but it was nice; Micah directed me to a place where to eat, but i found another place, as it wasn't a buffet. The place I went to was called the Big Wok; the food was alright, nothing to write home about really.

 I also felt a bit lonely as I was on my own. After a while, while talking to Sinjeet and Boo and Micah, I felt better and headed back to the hotel.Once there, I made a plan for the next morning and went to sleep.

Virgin Media

So the day *Thursday* came and I was up at 6 and did all the plan said I had to do. Once I got to Virgin Media, the day got better. There was 4 exercises in total, 2 group and 2 individual. To make a long story short, I felt I did ok and I will find out the result by this week. I was so tired afterwards when it was over, that when I came home, I wanted to sleep so badly. (I did in the end).

It was tiring in all aspects of the word. But It was a good experience.

Church was good on Saturday ( I know I skipped Friday; not much really happened besides housework and a bit of note taking); there was a surprise birthday party for a friend, which he enjoyed and today, I was a tour guide for Japanese students.

Me, Darren, and Joel (the little baby) :)

I really enjoyed it; they asked me loads of questions from how I met Boo to what made me want to study Japanese; it was windy and cold, but overall very fun!

Actually, something did happen on Friday- I remember wanting to be a part of a team developing games, so I checked on Unity and now I am getting emails and so on about being parts of different teams, which is great! I got off Skype a while ago with a guy who I am interested in working with; overall, I am in it for the experience, and if money comes in as a result, then that is really good and I can be proud of whatever happens.

So yea, it has been big the past week and a bit! And tomorrow, I am going to meet a second group of Japanese students from the airport! For now, I am just going to chill and do some trucking (got Euro Truck Simulator 2 + an add on), so see y'all later!
