Day 150 in Japan - One Fifty!

Today, Peter Frankl, a famous Hungarian mathematician slash street performer. He was really interesting - he juggled and did maths problems for the students, and gave a long talk about his life. Unfortunately, it was all in Japanese (he speaks a billionty languages at a high level), so I only caught the general gist. It was absolutely freezing in the school hall, and even a few of the parents who had come to see him got up and left in the middle. I was really glad to get back to the warm teachers room so that I could start to feel my toes again.

Peter Frankl talk at Akashi Kita High School.
The only other notable thing about today was that I got to study some Japanese at school. Yes, after 150 days, I had enough free time to actually open up my textbook at my desk! Yay for no lessons over the New Years break.

Evidence of my study.
