So yeah, I'm supposed to be studying for my midterm but I'm not at the moment.  I'm okay for it though, i read all the sections and stuff so I think I'm good.  Right now, I'm feeling stress for the future and finals but I am happy.  There are only three times where the place that I lived actually felt like home.  Of course, my actual home is one.  ( Read more... )

Again, it's been a long while since I have posted.  I really need to get into that habit of posting stuff.  I mean, I have a freakin journal, right?  It's not just there to sit there is it ( Read more... )

Journal 1 - 7/1/08

I was definitely stressed out prior to my flight.  Not knowing a language where it`s completely dominant is a new feeling.  I thought that I didn`t know an ounce of Japanese but I knew enough to end up at my hotel.  I got lost of course, but what`s life without a little adventure.  I was definitely one of those typical ( Read more... )

When did we become so dependent on things that people before us never had.  I'm talking about electronics specifically.  As I trying to pack for my trip to Japan, I realize that I need to pack a separate bag (just a smaller one that'll fit into my suitcase) just for electronics.  It's a long flight so I need to keep myself busy not to mention that ( Read more... )

So I still have so much more stuff to do before I go to Japan.  I'm flying into Japan a day earlier than I need to be because I would be there too late.  Thus I was just planning to stay in the airport that night and when I told my parents, they FLIPPED OUT!  So I'm currently looking into hotels etc.  I still need to buy a JR Pass.  I still need to ( Read more... )
