Enchanted
I think I should update once in a while... But it seems I've become too blasé to regard anything that happens as worthy of an entry. Or, which is actually more likely, I'm trying not to write endlessly about Koushi and end up writing about nothing. But who cares?! Not I!
Nikko was Nikko. Having now experienced the Japanese way of making trips, I can say I don't much care for it. It's kind of embarrassing for the organizers that the best part of it to me was when everyone else went to the onsen and I climbed the mountain alone in utter darkness. The view was beautiful. For some reason I felt an almost religious calm, even though I'm somewhat afraid of the dark, since you never know what might be lurking there. Like werewolves, for instance. Or something worse.
But today I managed to get rid of the curse I've been lugging around. And I also got a blessing at Nikko, and that's more than entry-worthy. Therefore I will now translate what it says.
Wishes: Better not to hurry
The person I'm waiting for: There's tiding soon on whether he'll come (I'm using the masculine as neutral here, and that means you army_kitten)
Lost articles: Close at hand
Journey: Go without worries
Work: Take the words of others to heart and make an effort
Friendship: Be earnest. Don't turn people away
Direction: If it is North, there's no reason to worry
Matches: Push straight forward. You'll win
Long-time employment: Choose an honest person and you'll do fine
Housing: Best to be patient and relax
Childbirth: No reason to worry deeply (woah, getting a bit ahead of ourselves here...)
Sickness: Paying attention to what you eat is most important
Marriage proposals: There's talk of marriage from an unexpected direction (...can you be more specific, please?)
Money: Don't rush it, wait for your time
In short: OMG MARRIAGE PROPOSALS!!!
