And so I return from a weekend jaunt into Urbana, Il, wherein I met slipperyliz's family for the comissioning of her brother into the Marines. Also I saw Pirates 3 a second time; and yeah, it was just as good as the first time. Not a lot of sleep was gotten, although I did finish The House of Gaian and get a nice start on The Assassin King.

In between helping to set up for the comissioning, I got a peek at my e-mail, and learned that I've been accepted into a Bunraku program out of a Michigan college. Over June and July I'll be in Iida, Japan. A most awesome summer, if I do say so myself.

wow, that'll be a little in the middle of nowhere...i haven't seen bunraku yet and i'm sad. but my host mom says it's not to interesting...i'd still like to see it. but i have seen kabuki several times.

Yeah, a little. Close enough that I can get to Kyoto and Osaka fairly easily, though. Bunraku, in my opinion, is like kabuki for puppets. If you liked kabuki, then you'd probably enjoy bunraku.
