Holy cow it has been a hot week. It rained cats and dogs almost every day, but somehow that didn't do much to bring down the humidity, which was in the 90% ballpark most of the time... even in the lab! What a week!
Monday was a holiday, so I went with my friends and their Bulgarian pal to another ikebana (flower arrangement) exhibition. I found out that my friends' friend actually used to do some ikebana, which explains why she's so into it and why she always has tickets to these things :p
On Saturday I was hanging around Sapporo station mooching wifi when I saw an interesting fellow.
The most popular comic and show in Japan right now is probably Attack on Titan, and there's a live action movie coming out later this summer (I think??). Apparently there's a travelling exhibit of some of the props from the movie and stuff, which is what's going on here. The comic is about a world where people are constantly attacked by naked / skinless giants. It's.... interesting.
On Sunday I went back to my old stomping ground at the International Hall, where I met yet another interesting fellow:

We had a lunch party with the Chinese grad student and his wife, who also works in our lab. We played some indoor frisbee and sock hockey and sticky-ball darts. It was a great party!
