Kondo, in my eyes, seemed like a typical monk. He was clean-shaved, tanned, and bald. But I could have never imagined that interviewing a monk would be this exciting. He told me that Japan had been brought up differently then The US had. Japan was taught to memorize seemingly useless information about useless subjects. This is part of the reason that the monk such as Kondo, used laptops and other very high tech devices. Kondo told me that when the outbreaks started happening in Japan, nobody was worried. The monks and everyone else thought of the zombies as very interesting and studied their habits rather than plan an escape. This was a terrible situation. It wasn't until the zombies were knocking at his doorsteps that Kondo began to think of an evacuation plan. Since the hallways were swarmed with zombies, he decided to go out the window. He decided to create a makeshift rope out of bedsheets because he was on the 19 floor of the monastery. He would repel a few floors down, gather moor sheets for his rope, and continue on. Although this "all brains and no brawn" upraising seems rather useless in a zombie war, I guess we all have our strengths and weaknesses.
