Feet Fall Soundly

Can you guess who almost destroyed his foot?
No?

Well, I'll give you a hint... Oh-mah-gosh it's me.
Yea, I wanted to take a photo of a river right? But I couldn't get to get due to a fence. Fences are silly, silly things to hopped right on over it and took the photo anyway (I don't have it at the moment, but you can expect it to be updated to my flickr account sometime soon.)

For all intents and purposes the photo turned out rather poopy. Depressed, I ran back to fence to hop over. I cleared the barrier, no problem, but what I failed to notice on the initial trip was the gutter running directly in front of it.

Needless to say, I missed my toe up pretty bad. I don't know if I've seen quite so much blood come out from underneath my toenail. It was fairly disgusting, for all intents and purposes.

Anyway, I did that about a week ago, and it still hurts a bit. Whatever.
I took some time off from running club, but I intend to come back with a vengeance. There is a race coming up that goes through Hirakata, and I want to run in it, gosh darn it. I think it's a 10 K, which just makes me happy, as I've been running those here like it's nothing.

Also a jolly running note. Passing people on bikes going up hill? FUN.

I've a couple trips planned for October. This Saturday, I'll be going to Asuka (weather willing) to take a boat load of photos. There be temples in them thar hills, and I'mma get some pictures. It's being paid for by Kansai Gaidai, so no worries there.

On the 11th, some of my new homies and I will be going to Shikoku. Why, I'm not to sure, but apparently we get to wear silly hats. More on that as I figure it out myself. I guess it's 40 dollars round trip, but lunch will be free.

Another trip I would love to make is a trip to Kyoto to see the William Kentridge exhibit. My art professor back home would be so proud that I actually give a care about anything art related, so I imagine some brownie points are in order. Also brownies... I want brownies.

I've had lot of things bearing down on me lately (both school work and emotional stress) so I apologise for the scantity of updates. I'll try to post something next Monday, and I will definitely keep you posted on these coming trips.

~Cheers
