Calculus + Kanji

I was advised to not go to a doctor straight away regarding my ear, just because Japanese doctors do a little more forceful poking and prodding.. I'm gonna wait it out a couple days- see what happens. However all day today I felt like I was listening to the ocean through a giant conch shell- and the poor students are trying to talk to me and I'm like "Heh? What?" This ear thing is definitely not helping to encourage confidence in their English skills :/

I learned how to change trains today- going from the monorail line to the Keio line so I can get to Shuto University or the boys' apartment. Near Shuto there's a prefecture called Minami-Osawa and they have great shopping.. that cute cotton scarf was only like.. $84 American dollars- and paired with that $240 top, I'd look like I walked straight out of an Anthropologie magazine. But it really is a shame that the prices were so sky high 'cause I was rockin' some of those hats!

I hear Harajuku has cheaper shopping. 

Have you ever seen a calculus equation in kanji? That is like the craziest stuff ever.
