How do you write "Dog Treat" in Japanese?
Greetings from Kobe!
This will be a short
post today.
I am starting to get
into the rhythm of things and growing more accustomed to my tasks
here and daily life in Japan. Things are starting to become more
routine, so I will try to look for some sort of interesting updates going forward.
I did go “shopping”
Monday, which looked more like me wandering around a mall for an
hour, but there were a few things that came to mind. 1: It was
humbling to be walking through a bookstore and realize that I am
almost entirely illiterate, an encouragement to study and learn
Japanese. 2: There was an import food store in the mall, so I could
get some comfort foods, like Mountain Dew, in Japan... at greatly
inflated prices. 3: Just like malls in America, I could not find a
single store that sold HDMI cables. It could simply be that the
illiterate foreigner, too distracted by Mountain Dew, could not read
the “Electronics Store” sign. Oh well, I will try again soon.
Which has me concerned when I go to the grocery store, especially
when I saw this in America (this was taken months ago in Tucson)
One of these things
is not like the others.
We could use some
specific prayer. Pastor Taniguchi and I have been coughing on and off
all day. I've also got a bit of a scratchy throat and a runny nose.
It seems like it is a minor head cold, but I'd rather not be out sick
for a few days unless it is necessary. Please pray for a quick
recovery, especially since we go to the preschool on Friday.
God Bless,
Carl
