Cover me up

in Saran Wrap and call me Lucy cuz the rainy season is here!
After 2 years, my grasp not only on the English language but also idioms/colloquialisms/figures of speech is tentative at best. (The other day an ALT asked me, "How's it up?" to which I replied, "Not good much")
Anyhow, it is so humid here I literally feel like I have been covered in Vaseline and then wrapped up in cling wrap (there's a nice visual for you). But hey, it's good for the skin right?
Two weeks ago I went camping and canyoning in Minakami, Gunma. It was my second time to go canyoning, even though I swore I'd never do it again (canyoning is really fun, but I mean, how many times can you jump off a 20 meter waterfall before Mr. Reaper starts to notice??).
Last week I had my first Ikebana class.
And last weekend I spent in Tokyo and bought myself a sweet pair of shoes (one of hopefully many farewell gifts I plan to get for myself).
Will post pics of all this (not the Vaseline/Saran-wrap scenario) soon.
