I miss the Australian accent!

Since coming to Japan, I have met many Americans, but have only met one Australian. Hence have been hearing a lot more American accents than the Aussie accent. Just now I was listening to a sermon from Hillsong, and while listening to it, not only the message was great, but the Australian accent made me felt excited! The Australian English was very pleasing to my heart~

I love American accent, but Australian accent makes me think of Australia! It feels homey and makes my heart glad to hear.

Wow, I didn't realise that I am already missing Australia until I hear the Australian speaking to me~~

This is rather funny. Logically, this shouldn't be the time to miss Australia but to enjoy every excitement that is in Japan. However, I think I am feeling a bit "home sick" already^^

Thanks to my trip to Japan. Until I came to Japan, I didn't know how much I love Australia.

Japan is also fabulous! It's the country I have been longing to come, and now I am so thankful for this privilege to be here.

I love you Australia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From lovely Japan
Quick update:
School started on Monday, classes have been great so far, besides not yet used to the strict rules regarding class attendances , manners and long contact hours (doubled from my faculty at Melb). Though the subjects I am taking are very interesting, especially those on Japanese studies. I can't wait to learn more abot Japan and its history and culture more in depth. Hoping that my Japanese improves faster~

I think your feelings for Japan is somewhat similar to my feelings for Philippines :P.Though not everything is great, very grateful to be here.
I miss the Australian accent too. I think they sound cool, but I hardly ever hear it these days. Australians are pretty rare in US and Philippines..

Jesus lifehouse

I went to church today, and the name of the church is Jesus lifehouse. It's a Japanese and English bilingual church situated not too far from the heart of Tokyo. Thanks to Shermayne's friend- Kat, that I am able to find a church immediately after my arrival in Japan. Moreover, the church is not too far from my dormitory either, it only takes about half an hour to get there by train. In Japan, this is considered quite close. There are four services surprsingly, people get to choose the best time that suits them. The one I went was the 1pm service as was suggested by Kat. This is a pretty good time for me as well. The hall was smaller than I expected, but when I got there, the service had already started and was already filled with people. The music was quite loud though, people were singing, clapping and dancing around. Jesus lifehouse is probably a smaller version of Planetshakers in Melbourne, coincidentally that the English pastor is an Australian, too. Apparently he is from ...

Disneyland!!

What has Jude being doing these days? Well , firstly, I have been playing hard, and surprisingly studying hard, too. The workload here in Japan is more than Melb Uni, I have more contact hours and there is always tests and homework after each lesson. So I have no choice but to manage my schedule better, to balance my study and play time better. Thank God that since coming to Japan, I have made many many great friends. They are just so wonderful and have been a big part of my life here in Japan. I thank God this is the answer to my prayer, because I prayed that I would make many friends here and have a great time together, and this is happening, and I am sure more are to come. OK HERE COMES DISNEYLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!! When you think of Tokyo, Disneyland is something you cannot miss. Although the name of the park is known asTokyo Disneyland, however, it is actually situated in the neighbouring prefecture called Chiba. Anyway, my lovely friend-Lydia and I took a crazy night trip to the Amazin...

What a fulfilled day!

I had a super busy day yesterday, but had a great time. From morning, I went to Uni to collect my exchange documents. Straight after that I went to a lovely friend's house to help clean her house for today's house inspection. She is planning to sell her house, so she needed her house to be abolutely spotless and we really worked hard to make it like a display house..... By the end of it, although there were still millions of things to do, it was better than it was. We went for a walk in the bush for a while afterwards, it was refreshing and indeed a great exercise after a month of staying at home. After the cleaning and bushwalking, I went straight to the city again to meet up my beloved friends for dinner. Shel had been in the US for exchange for one year and I was really excited to see her after one full year. Gracey is a quiet girl but is easy going and has a smile that make people feel comfortable and warm. During the meal, I couldn't help asking Shel many questions abo...
