So, today I had my Reading/Writing paper midterm, and I definitely made up for any points I missed with the interview. Tomorrow I have the Speaking paper midterm, where I am expecting the very opposite to happen. What could be worse? Well, it could be raining harder. When it rains here, the barely flowing rivers (all of which have concrete embankments) rise at least two feet. I would have hated to live here centuries ago in the rainy season.
When it's not raining, the weather tends to stay at an oh-so-disgusting 70 or so. Where's the fall weather!? This is not what I expect from October in the Northern Hemisphere. Although, maybe Japan also falls under the influence of the Halloween phenomenon; on that night, it's always warm enough, and if it rains it holds off until later in the night. I can't be the only one whose noticed this, can I?
Today I tried to get vending machine ramen, but it just ate my money. So I paid again and got 1 cup. The next guy got 2. He looked confused, and left the extra there, but later must have changed his mind and came back to get it. I took it and put it away before he got back, though. I didn't feel like trying to overcome a language barrier just to explain why it was mine by rights.
Spell check says that 'ramen' isn't a word. Whoever typed up this word bank has got to have been the lamest college student ever.
