Joushi-Kai

Lately, a couple of my friends from cooking club and I have been getting together weekly to have a Joushi-kai. I know it’s kinda questionable to call it that since I am a guy, but we do all the activities characterized in a Joushi-kai. We buy a bunch of snacks, particularly sweets and alcohol, get comfortable on the couch here at the sharehouse, and share stories.
Of course most of these stories are about romance, etc–my favorite topic as it is good inspiration for my shojo manga stories I write.
I’ve realized I’ve been through some…interesting romances, and my…fidelity is remarkable, some say admirable lol
I’ve been saving the best story, even though I’ve been wanting to tell that one the most.  It’s a very heartmoving story that should one day be turned into a movie. Even though it’s over, perhaps one day I can share that awesome story with the world. But for now I’ll just start with sharing it at Joushi-kai tomorrow.

Teacher/Translator

As I wait to begin my new job in July, I’ve had to take on one-day side jobs for a little extra pocket money. One day my manga school, TCA, gave me a call and told me some students from Australia were coming to take part in a special week long course and two days would be classes hosted by TCA. Since, I’m American, an English speaker, they asked that I join the class as an assistant teacher AND translator.
Surprisingly it was easier than I thought and a lot of fun. I made some new friends, tested my Japanese knowledge and got to review some manga art basics too. I found myself wanting to teach more actually. I wonder if I should just be a teacher…lol
