Class finishes early on Fridays. I was home around 3 after my CALL Seminar and my Private Lesson. After doing my homework first – I am a good student – I went for a bike ride / photo recce in an effort to give some of you back home an idea of what Okazaki can look like. Of course these are the prettiest images I could make, and by no means representative. It can be pretty boring and dull, but I like it all the same. Like a friend of mine put it: Being in Japan feels like permanent vacation.

Am currently entering the final week of my stay here in Durham, New Hampshire.

It will be missed, for sure.

I-am-so-happy!

I am either too lazy or too busy to do the rest of the NYC trip fully documented. So here are the highlights: nice bars, nice people, free screw drivers, coney island is eerie, coney island aquarium freak thing, vandalized ATMs, Ice-T’s birthday party.

Happy Easter!

Me and C. went down to the burrito franchise for breakfast. The effing Easter Bunny closed it down. Damn that bunny.

Will watch Gummo tonight.

I discovered two awesome sites this week:

#1: Wooster Collective/

#2: Blipfoto/

Obviously #2 photoshops his ass off on the pics, but who cares. The photos look awesome. I subscribed to blipfoto, too. I allows you to upload one photo a day, and no more. Further, the photo has to have been made on that day. Which I think is cool. I am still to make my first contribution. When I do my blipfoto url will be www.blipfoto.com/aaronvanvalen.

Also, it is pissing rain out here like you wouldn’t believe. I’m going to NYC next weekend, to spend my spring break there, and I sure do hope it won’t be raining then. A little rain I can handle. A lot, no.

As I successfully met three deadlines last week, my brain is at ease a bit more. Good stuff.

Pictures: C can be seen smoking his ciggie. He is loving it. Hit that shit, C. (“Good shit, huh?” “Dude it’s just a fuckin’ cigarette.”) Also, Ziting (Christine) turning her head away. Camerashy people, I understand them not.

Peace in the East.

P.S.: I pimped the layout a wee bit. Put my face smack in the middle of the banner.

P.S. 2: Fun fact of the day, the dollar has gotten even kinder to us Europeans: 1.535 $ for a euro. Oh. Fucken. Yeah.

Dear Dollar,

Thank you for being so kind to me. I think I will buy a house soon.

1 EUR (EUR) = 1.5187 USD

All best,

Your faithful Euro friend
