Meeting "Aussie meat"

I've been learning more about life here at Canadian farms and making a decent amount of mistakes along the way. My cell phone hasn't been helpful as a cell phone or even an alarm... you wouldn't think that would be too hard to mess up huh? I accidentally got up an hour passed everyone else one morning since my cell phone can't correctly tell time and missed breakfast because of it. I felt like a jackass waking up that late and not even helping with breakfast or anything. I'm not trusting my cell phone anymore, my internal clock I find works better.

Bokemaru still doesn't like me but that's not stopping me. I'll keep on trying to befriend him till I leave. He doesn't like almonds or cranberries. I need to get some better snacks that picky dogs might also enjoy.

I'm pretty sure but not positive that Matt, my first Aussie friend got to Canadian farms on the 16th, 4 days after me. First time I saw Matt he was decked out in a camouflaged jacket with a large straw hat and tall rain boots. He looked pretty serious about WWOOFing minus the large straw hat which look kind of silly. It was really nice having Matt there because I finally had someone who was a native English speaker that I could get my thoughts out onto which feels so nice after a few days of no one understanding what you actually mean. Matt turned out to be a great friend and also shared many of my interests. He taught English in Hokkaido for a year and a half I think. It was interesting learning from his past teaching experiences and all the other things he's done. He's been counting all the different onsens he's been to and he's up to 60ish I think which is quite a few. I have, since meeting Matt, taken more of an interest in Australia. Hopefully I can go visit Australia sometime and hang out with my "mates" again. Sohei and I have become pretty good friends. We play chess pretty often which is almost always a good game yet he beats me nearly everytime. Our record is something like 12 games him, 3 games me lol.
