Just a post
I keep on starting posts only to leave and do something else. Once I get back into chair to type, I lose my flow. I guess I could start from scratch. For the past couple days, I have been feeling drained. With the exception of today. I basically knitted all day and had little to no interaction with anyone. I think it felt nice. My sister has been draining me out lately so it was nice to have a day to myself.
Despite that, I've realized I enjoy cheering people up. It could be my ego/pattern but I feel I should consider going for a psychology major whenever I get back to real schooling. Now, I can think of drawbacks to this because I may only care about my friends. Also, I don't like feeling obligated to help, which my friends don't make me feel. On the other hand, I have never really helped anyone in that patient and therapist way. I usually know the person in some way. While I think I am good at reading people, I second guess myself a lot so I don't let my intuition get carried away with people I don't know too well. Actually, this semi attributes to why I have a hard time talking to people. I have that automatic advice giving streak and I don't want to be toooo off.
Either way, someday, I am going to get a 4 year degree so I can have many options in professions. I can teach in Japan with any 4 year major is my basically motivation. Sounds pretty nifty and I have taken Japanese in the past so it shows interest.
God, my future is coming up and it doesn't even feel that way. I am going to Savannah starting this weekend. I set up a ghost tour and hopefully, we can frolic in our sun dresses, Saturday. The weekend after that, to DC for obvious reasons, and then the next weekend, to Japan.
Actually, I e-mailed my program inquiring about my housing status. They said all the information will be mailed to me tomorrow. I guess I will have to get it from mom before I leave tomorrow since I think I put her mailing address on the form.
The only thing that confuses me is I applied for a single dormitory and the lady who wrote me said host family information. Now, it's not like that's a bad thing but initially, I would rather stay in single dormitory. It will certainly put a new outlook on the trip if this is true.
I e-mailed the lady back telling the program I applied for a single dormitory and that there must be a mistake. I will find out tomorrow. I have a feeling that she sort of automated that to everyone who asked. I mean, it is scary and two weeks until the departure. I probably wasn't the only jittery one who wanted structure.
Lets put it this way. I want a single dormitory because I will have the most freedom despite the fact that there are curfews no matter what. In a single dormitory, I can stay up as late as want and leave without permission. The ways in which I would prefer a host family is if I have to share my space with a roommate in a dormitory (I rather report to a family than a roommate constantly being there) and if I were in a rural area. I think Tokyo isn't meant to be spent traditionally with a family. Hardly a family unit city in my view. Then again, my mom had a host family when she studied abroad in London and she said it was a good experience. Actually, I have heard more positive experiences with host families than negative ones. I think the main drawback to having a host family would be the inferred no nightlife rule and I would feel like I would have to go to bed when the family did and eat their breakfasts. ;-; I will just take it for what it is and try to push a little. If not, it's fine! Destiny and being in Japan is enough.
I saw a new anime today. It was called Night Head genesis. I really liked it. I just loved how it was directed and of course the brotherly love themes were too much to resist. I really like their relationship(Like Hare and Akihiko in some ways). The two of them were stuck in a laboratory together due to their psychic abilities and declarations of "I will never leave you." really warm my heart. Especially coming out of two very devoted brothers. Its a serious show and my main criticism would be the computer animation when the use their kinetic or telepathy. It looked really stupid to me. Other than that, a stellar show.
I think what I liked most about it was how the younger brother indirectly brought up an idea and the older brother knew what he was inferring not wanting to go with it. They stared at each other in that realistic bonded way and he coincided to the idea. Nice. ^_^
One of the scenes kind of traumatized me because the younger brother can see people's negative pasts when they touch him and let's say, ack. His older brother is the only one who can touch him without this effect. Together forever. Now, I hope no female character will interfere. I really don't like female characters in these sort of shows.
Okay, well that's it.
