sakura
mornin'. well, it's 12.34am so it technically is. another day of work done and crossed off, just 3 more to go and then it's my glorious monday!! i HOPE HOPE HOPE all the pretty lil' cherry blossoms haven't floated away by then. they are in full bloom right now, indeed some are already flittering off the branches like snow. they're just so dang beautiful when you get a bunch of them trees together, even the boys make special efforts to appreciate them. just 3 more days, please don't go little sakura...
if they've packed their bags and trotted off by monday i may still get a chance to see them in hakone. hakone is a mountain town about an hour and a half away from here, famous for onsen (hot springs). the cherry blossoms bloom a little later out there. i have a day off for my birthday next month so am making plans to soak in sake, green tea and coffee "flavoured" baths! :) what a treat!
well, not much to report really, except that today a student told me about a really interesting japanese novel he read called "kafka on the shore". it sounds extremely wierd. am dying to get my hands on it.
my eyelids are dripping down my eyeballs, so i best be off to beddy-byes. sweet dreams all xx

Two things I have always wanted to do before I turn 60 are, to run through a wood full of falling cherry blossom and to do triple backwoods flips on the moon
