So I spent the weekend in Nagano City. It was pretty fun, but it rained the whole time and only cleared up on my way home. It was a nice walk home from the station though. I even got the chance to stop by the grocery store. I don't usually go shopping alone since I have to lug everything up the hill to my apartment. Don't get me wrong, living on the top of a hill/mountain has a lot of perks, but living on the top of a hill with no car and no grocery store in sight is a little less perky. I'm not really good at asking my friends to take me shopping every week either, and until recently my boyfriend took me. Unless I can pass the driving test and get a car soon, I have a feeling that I'll be toughing it out and getting some extra exercise. I guess it's that independent streak. (^_^)

Anyway, I don't really have anything interesting to say and I have to get up early tomorrow, so I'll bid you a good night! おやすみなさい！　(Oyasuminasai!)
