What did I do today?
I ate bear soup! Yeah, bear meat. That was a new one.
I went to a small festival of sorts today where Alaina was carving pumpkins with kids. So first, I helped out with that, and then a guy offered us bear soup. Kim and I decided to give it a try. haha. In all honesty, if I had not know it was bear, I probably would have just thought it was beef.
Another funny story. I was waiting for the stage performances to start (one of my students was in a performance) and these girls came up to me, one of the group had been at the pumpkin carving earlier, so she knew my name. But here is the conversation I had with some 5 year old girls tonight.
Girl from pumpkin carving: "This is Elissa. She is a teacher!"
Other girl: "Oh, really? But, you look like an American!"
Me: "I am an American!"
Other girl: "So, why are you in Japan?"
Me: "I am an English teacher."
Other girl: "Oh, right. How old are you?"
Me: "24"
Other girl; "Oh! You are younger than my mom!"
I thought it was a pretty funny conversation. The things that kids say!
Anyway, that is all.
If she had said OLDER than my mom, I would have been worried.
