No love for Wall-e??

So today in my "outstanding" English class, we had a test. It was an interview test. Basically I brought the student outside and I asked him/her about 8 fairly simple, yet engaging... well not so engaging questions. Anyway, while the other students waited in the classroom, I decided I would show them a movie. Well the movie I decided to show them was one of my favorite movies "wall-e". This movie has yet to be released in Japan, so they were in for a treat! This movie releases next week in Japan. Well we watched the whole movie, and I waited for a response from one of the 20 heads in my class. I never got that response. Not even a "that was cute!" or a "I liked the movie!". It was complete silence. I thought that I had shown them a damn video of a funeral or something like that. What the hell??? How can you not have a response to "Wall-e". Needless to say I was a bit shocked at this. When the bell rang, they all just got up and walked out of class. Not even a goodbye or thanks. That's the last time I lug my laptop and speakers to class for them. Lame...

On a good note, I got to watch "Wall-e" again. Damn I love that movie. Well gotta get going. Chat with you later! Cheers!

How can you not love this dude?

Long time, no...type!

Hey everybody! I apologize for the lack of posts on vinceinosaka.blogspot.com. Honestly I lost interest in writing this blog a few weeks ago. However I decided today to keep it going for the time being.

Anyway, the past few weeks have been quite interesting. Let's start off with what I will cleverly title "The Futon Incident". Sweet, huh? So to start this story off I will inform you about the Japanese Futon. It's not like what you know as a futon in the West. These futons are placed on the floor and you sleep on them. They are filled with various goods like cheap polyester to the oh so lovely down feathers. You have to put these futons outside at least one a week to air them out and get some sun. So on a Saturday a few weeks back, I decided to place my nice fluffy futon outside hanging off the balcony with a couple of harnesses attached. I left to the grocery store to buy some goods to cook. When I arrived back home, I didn't see my futon hanging off the balcony. I peered down the edge of my apartment building and it was nowhere to be found! My futon had a bright yellow cover on it, so it wouldn't have been difficult to find. But I never found the damn thing. It just vanished, my bright yellow semi-double pillow of joy! Well, last week I had to replace that futon. I spent a good $200 at the home store so but some winter futon and covers. Somewhere, some dude is on my yellow futon. I hope he is mauled by a tiger or something like that.

I have really been cooking a lot. Not only is it damn good fun. But I am realising that I can cook pretty good! I have been turning out classics like pizza, baked spaghetti, double dipped fried chicken, apple pie pizza, curry honey chicken, fried rice... seriously dude I've been cooking like a mad man!

Thanksgiving is coming soon! I really am going to miss all the delicious food my mom makes. I'm going to miss the football games and just hanging out at home. When you are away for a long time, you start to miss the little things about home. I really don't miss "El Paso" that much, just mostly miss the people that I love in El Paso. I'm not sure of my plans for Christmas yet, but damn I would love to get back home!

Thanks to all that keep reading this thing of a blog. I promise to keep up the stories more often.

peace
