I made a snowman today! It...erm....well, I've never made a snowman before, so it was a little lopsided and unproportionate....but I still had fun making it! I even gave it a carrot nose and everything!

....I-I miss my room being filled with books... A-and I don't think I could do that here...Unless I stop eating for a month...every other month, that is.

...Maybe I should try to get a second job somewhere?

Home sickness is kicking in...I miss my apartment....all my books....Nancy especially Nancy, Drake, Mr. Joker, the Gentleman...

I wonder...how long we'll be stuck here? Is time continuing normally back at home? Or did it just...stop? If we're here for say...five years Oh dear, I hope not. That's far too long... when I get back home, will that be five years gone that I couldn't be there to help anyone? Five years of not visiting Nancy...not taking care of her and her...her child How would I explain where I've been?

Or, will it be as if...five years have passed for me here, and I've grown older, while everyone stayed the same? That...hurts to think about, too.

I know, I guess I should lay off the science fiction, and not think too much on it..

At last! For the time being, I have a new home!

After talking to the landlord of a small apartment, explaining the situation, he agreed to let me make my first payment at the end of the month!

A-after much begging and pleading, the Librarian finally agreed to hire me! I-it's really just a simple job of stocking the shelves and re-arranging the books, alphabetizing them, making sure they're in the right category and such...but at least it's something! A-and in a library! Around books!

I....do need to find somewhere to stay now, however....Oh dear...Somehow, I don't think I'll be able to rent off an entire apartment building and fill it with books...The only reason that was possible in Japan was because of the pay from the British Library...Drat.

So, thusfar my findings in the library have included:

- The Lake is named Samu, and apparently it's supposed to posess magical properties
- The Verde family is very powerful, and are the leaders of this town.

...Sadly, that's all I've been able to find out.

Has anyone else been able to dig up some information?

Aha! So, with only slight difficulty, I managed to find the library! Books! SO MANY BOOKS!

U-um, I'll try to see if I can find any more information on the towns.

Ohhhhhh dear.... Where am I?

This isn't my home in Japan! W-where's all my books?! Mr. Joker? Wendy? Is anybody from the British Library out there?

...Oh my...this is bad...

...I hope there's a library nearby
