The Friday Five for September 23, 2022
Sep. 24th, 2022 03:00 pm1. How many stars can you see in the sky at night where you live? (Not looking for an exact number here, just a general description.)
On a clear winter day maybe 50 to 100? The more you peer into the sky the more you can see.
2. What is your favorite constellation?
I don't know much about stars, unfortunately. The Big/Little Dippers are the easiest to find.
3. Are you able to see and identify any planets in the sky? Which ones?
Just Venus. The brightest star next to the moon, right?
4. Have you ever seen a satellite orbiting above the earth?
Just on TV.
5. Have you ever seen a rocket blasted off into space?
Again, just on TV.

Not a very interesting set of questions this time around, unfortunately. I have no interest in space or constellations, I guess. Stars are beautiful and it was pretty awesome when I saw the Milky Way in the mountains of Yamagata, but I don't really have the patience to go searching for constellations - maybe because my eyes are so bad. I don't really like getting cricks in my neck either.
I finished watching GRIMM. Julian enjoyed quite a few eps with me. I then went ahead and cancelled the subscription to Hulu. I found they have no recommendation system, and very little choice of shows - here in Japan anyway. Netflix is better in the long term.
Audrey and Alex both seem to have had lots of fun on their respective trips. Audrey tells me she wants to go to Kyoto again and take more time to look around with friends and with me <3 Alex had to come home early because there was a danger that the flight would be cancelled due to the typhoon. He enjoyed the hotel and the time spent with 3 other friends.
As I think I mentioned before, Monday and Friday were national holidays and I had those two days off as well. They both went by really quickly. Tuesday and Friday I had choir practice. We are learning a particularly difficult piece of teen angst which is proving quite challenging. We will be having another practice on Sunday.
Another typhoon is going by and it's raining a lot. It's also getting quite cool. Hopefully the barbecue on the 2nd will be nice. After that I will be preparing for our Halloween event and Christmas Presentation. Time is going to go by so fast.
I'm still stressed out about the teacher situation so it's very hard to find something nice to talk about LOL That's the best I can do for now.
