Ok so, I realize I have been remiss in writing lately, and yes by lately you could say the last quarter of a year. Of course I don't have a good excuse, and it is not as if nothing has happened, so....you'll just have to accept my apology. Currently through the magic of the laptop I'm typing this as the West Coast of the States draws ever nearer. So, it has been seven months since I've been home and a year since I've been back with any sense of permanence. Ain't that just the strangest thing?
Anyways lots and lots has happened. A ridiculous amount in all actuality. I honestly don't know where to begin so I shall just ramble and wank it, as it were. I'm definitely coming home a slightly different person, pro'ly for the better. I'll admit though I'm gonna miss my bat shit crazy days, and I will live to learn with just being nuts. It's sad I know, but what can you do? I think the whole Korea thing wasn't a bad thing, wasn't a purely good thing either, but nothing is. I really don't know how exactly I feel about it. The bank account is happy, and certainly I was able to do things that I never would have otherwise. AT the same time gotta wonder if I missed out on anything. Of course can't do something without giving something up so, I'll just stop right there. Let's leave it at happy to be home, and pro'ly was good for me to spend some quality time with myself. Though, just so you all know I missed each and every one of you something awful.
The last month abroad was crazy and fun. Summer classes, smart students, traveling, reunions, etc. I really liked the summer classes, because you get to work with the kids who really care. Plus they say cute things like they'll miss you and that they are grateful for teaching them so much. So, got to leave with a bit of a warm and fuzzy feeling regarding the students.
After the students came Japan, and it was everything I hoped it could be everything anime told me it was, and more....oh so much more. Someday I think I will live there for a spell and make with the working. As for the trip it was a nice mix of anime, the urban metropolis of the future, and a cute little mountain town. I also got to see again the person who's my favorite. Which just made everything that much better. Some of you, oh will you have presents. True, you may throw that at me or let lose a string of unholy curse words, but hey at least I was thinking of you. There so much to tell about Japan that I'll just tell the tales in person. It's easier that way, plus I mean I need to talk to everyone in person anyway, being gone like I have, so I all works out.
That's all I'm gonna write for now. Two and a half hours until landing in San Fran, then only customs and two more airports between myself and Minnesota. Bye for now.
