Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays meant that you were free for your own activities. As during the weekdays the breakfast started at 0700 until 0900, I went down as usual - around 0700.

Little that I realised the breakfast on non-training days started only at 0730 until 0930. Thus, I spent my time in the dining hall alone learning Japanese language as I always carried the handy book in my pouch together with the wallet, passport and other valuable things.

During breakfast I talked to Chum, a participant from Viet Nam. He had been here for seven months with another five more to go. At around noon, I went to the computer room. This session was considered a bad one since the access time to Internet was too damn slow.. It was not only crawling, but it was sort of kicking up the ass for it to download a page (even with a minimum amount of graphics!!) At that time, Chum was finishing his report, Mutuah from Kenya was browsing through Kenya Homepage, Perla from Argentina (my course mate) was checking her hotmail and I myself tried to access my hotmail also. I had been having a problem accessing my hotmail since last night.

Wondering how Perla could access hers, I asked her whether she had had a problem before - and she said she had the same problem as me since last night. But now, she managed to look at her mail. Because of the slow traffic, she was kicked out automatically from hotmail before even managed to reply a mail... At least she was ahead of me, I couldn't even given a chance to view my mail! Fed up, Mutuah and I left the room.
