You are an ELI student from Japan. This is your first session at the English Language Institute of the University of Delaware. It is week two of the session. The goal of this game is to survive the weekend in Newark and come to your classes Monday morning prepared for the required classwork. You will find many things to do over the weekend. You will need to make decisions about these things. Remember that your goal is to learn English and get a good job when you return back to Japan. But also you want to learn as much as possible about the way of life of Americans. You live in the International House (sometimes called "Little Tokyo"). You have two roommates -- one American (Dave) and one from Lithuania (Zardok). You are very fortunate to be in Newark, Delaware -- one of the Middle Atlantic's great centers of culture.
