Cool
A couple cool things have happened in the last couple of days.
The best was when one of the Japanese guys at school started asking about Christianity. Unlike the U.S. where people avoid talking about the Bible, here people are often very curious. If you could pray that God would continually give me wisdom in these kinds of situations I would really appreciate it.
The other think that was kind of nifty was that I ate octupus and actually liked it. Josh and I went out to sushi and one of the things and I ate a several varieties of raw fish stuff. It didn't taste too bad if you didn't consider what it was. The octupus I think was my favorite. I'm not sure if it was cooked or not, never having had octopus I don't have much to compare it to. It's taste and texture reminded me of a cross between clam and halibut. In Japanese octopus meat is called tako, pronounced just like taco. If you ever feel like some Mexican food here, be careful how you order.

How on earth can you like octupus. Dosen't it taste like rubber?
hahahahaha...
Octopus, like other food types, is good when prepared right. Some foods just require less preparing then others.
OOoh! Calimari or another type? I've never tried it, but I will someday. :) And that is really exciting that they asked you about the Bible. It is great to have people that aren't so closeminded about things. There is a guy at my campus who sits and eats lunch everyday in the commons area. He stops people and asks if they need prayer for anything. It is really neat !
Octopus is good! I agree!!
And I will pray for you! glad you're getting those opportunities =D
Yummy, octopus is great! It's sorta rubbery but a good kind and it does not taste like chicken. If they are slimmy and takes a long time to chew, then they are not cooked but for the most part they taste pretty good when cooked. There are many other things that I did not care to eat when I was there but at least I tried them out.
As far as their curiosity, this is good cuz they admire our U.S. culture and it's a great way to show them the Gospel.
