Japan, Polish WIKI, etc.

I went out tonight with my Japanese friend. We had a wonderful dinner of sushi and went to a movie. The movie was actually quite disappointing, but the night overall was amazingly fun. We spoke primarily Japanese all evening. I have never done that before, not for such a long time period. Oh, how I have missed speaking. It was quite hard though. I really haven't studied in a LONG time and I couldn't remember correct verb-endings. I should probably work on that.

Tomorrow, I will go to church and then have a WIKI talk about the Polish short film series, "Dekalogue". We watched three of the hour-long films, each of which correspond to one of the 10 Commandments. The first we watched was the first in the series: Have no other gods before God. It was about a man putting a computer above God. Sort of. It had a tragic ending and was actually quite confusing, yet of the three, it made the most sense. We also watched one on murder and one that was supposed to be on adultery. That one left a question: Does one of the people involved have to be married for the act to be adultery?

Marriage. What an interesting concept. I have often said that I want to be married, but I don't look forward to getting married. It is the game that preceeds the commitment that is at the same time so intimidating and yet so engaging. Will I marry? I don't know.
