Fourth Day of the KCP International Program
Today was the orientation.
All the English students were placed in the same room,
where were given a detailed introduction on KCP policies.
This included
information on holidays,
test dates, retakes,
class start and end times,
food and drinks, lost and found, the library, and elevator usage.
We also chose if we wanted to do any Culture Classes, and we voted what we want our special class to be.
In the middle of the day, we had a group lunch with the other students from the short term English program.
I had packed a Pb&J, for which I was glad I did, for there was not a lot of food for the number of people there.
During this lunchen we were told what level we were placed in.
Afterwords, we were then separated into different classrooms to receive our textbooks and had another short orientation.
I was placed into Level 3 <probation>
My orientation was in Japanese and We needed about 6 textbooks,
but probation students got only about 3 and a small paper packet.
I went and ate at a cafe called "Milky Way"
After Class, I went and explored around Sunshine City
It was pretty good
I wondered around for a while, eventually ending up at the Pokemon Center in Sunshine City Mall, and buying a water bottle.
I then happened upon...
On the way home, I was then lost for an undefined amount of time, until I decided to give up and charge my phone with my portable charger on me and use Google maps to guild me to my house.
Since it was around 6pm or so,
I decided to get the night pass for unlimited rides.
You buy the tickets from a machine in the corner (it can be turned into English)
Once you go though the gates, you enter a big room with anime characters projected on the walls.
There is a little cirlce thing in the middle, where you can press different characters, and have them pop up on the walls and say some thing. They also have newly recorded stuff from the main jump serese where the characters are like "OMG, doesn't J-world look like fun? do you want to go left or right? I think right looks interesting, etc" The characters interact with each other and to "you" but you cant interact with them.
The Naruto area
of J-world
had lots of free games you could play.
My favorite of the free games was the
Kakashi Bell Test.
However, they had others like, balancing, summoning, and pretending to do the Chidori.
You start the game with a pair of headphones and a bag.
From inside of the headphones, they have the characters from Naruto telling you what your suppose to do.
They had an English option, that I was given because I was obviously American. The instructions are simple enough that you could definitely do it in Japanese though. At most Level 3 (but I'm pretty sure under that should work)
However, the best game here, was one of the games you have to pay for.
(but I already did becuase of the late night pass)
This game was one where you pretended to be a ninja and did some extremely simple tasks.
They had a cafeteria where you could order meals that were vaguely based on the different popular Jump anime.
I ordered the Uchiha Curry
Which came with a free postcard.
The Tomato Curry was quite good, and tasted like tomato soup. 10/10
There were about 10
or so tables with
about 3 plates as
shown in the picture.
We got a small plate,
and we used chopsticks to pick up
the food items we wanted
from the options available.
