Thompson (Gunther) | Michiko Watanabe(Saito) | Your Occupation: Masters Student | Spouse: Matt Stevenson | Comments: Matt and I are really enjoying life in Berkeley, California. We're both graduate students at Cal-- Matt is about to finish his Range Science degree and I'm halfway (maybe?) through a Folklore degree and Thesis-- I'm leaning towards ethnomusicology and transmission theory. In other words, music people play and how they teach each other how to play it. I'm the ward choir director, which occasionally sends me into fits of murderousness (like last week's pre-christmas program rehearsal, with the tenors all gossipping and twittering on the back row. I might have said something like "Shut up and invite the spirit, jerks!" Just kidding. I would never. The Bishop told my husband I was a *nudge nudge, wink wink, know what I mean* pistol. Which I can't decide if that's a compliment or not.) Anyway, we love our ward and our friends here. In addition to school, I'm working as a bookkeeper for a construction company and tutoring Japanese kids in English-- usually the kids of visiting scholars and PhDs. So I'm still up to my knees in Japanese. In fact on sunday we were hiking to church and we found a huge box full of Japanese novels and philosophy books on the sidewalk with a little note in neat handwriting saying, "please take it." So we made off with it. I've become sort of a food junkie since we've come here-- goat cheese has become a staple, as have pomegranites and asparagus. Arugula has climbed to the top of my list of favorite things, as have nasturtiums in salads and couscous. It's really all about food. So please come over and have some! Blessings upon all y'all. |
