My event days in winter term

※ This article discusses my event-days in winter term 2016/17 in Japan.

Last semester, I used one weekend day to travel in Japan. I called this day my "event day". This semester, it is different. In general, I have quite a lot of homework. Usually, I have classes until 15:00. Then I have to go to Aikido lessons at about 16:30. At about 21:00, I am coming home, cooking for the two of us, finishing homework and getting ready for the next day. This means I finish my day always past 00:00 and get up at about 07:15. But right now, I am not so busy as I did not have regular Aikido practice the past 2 weeks. This was quite relaxing. Aikido practice started yesterday again.

I think the event days of last semester have been quite successful. I already travelled around quite a lot in Japan. Studying here for 1 semester is really busy if you also want to travel around as well, but I had a good opportunity to do so in winter term and the summer term is more focused on studying. I am still unhappy about my Japanese skills. I was never really good with languages, but it is a nice brain teaser to be outside of CS and mathematics.
