it's like... like nothin matters! i bet it does.


yeah, i don't know, i'm beginning to lose faith in this whole blog thing. i know no one from class reads this. am i just doing this for me? i know cyan wants us to keep this updated but other than that there's really no point. anyway, it doesn't matter...

i just wanted to say i spent the last hour or so reading through the short journal i kept through most of my freshman year here. it was pretty crazy. crazy how much it helped me learn about myself. i mean at the time i was just writing whatever but now reading it it's like, hey, i knew what i was talking about. so it was interesting. really depressing too. nostalgia. ugh, all that kind of stuff. that was just a very very hard year. an especially hard spring emotionally, mentally. Never had i wanted to leave more than March of 2007. but it's interesting, the thing that kept me sane, got me trough it was just my dream of not giving up til I had at least been to Japan, all i wanted was to just get to Japan. Of course, for anyone who know's the story, the net year, January 2008 was just as hard if not worse, I really just don't really like talking about it. such a weird time. very painful to think about.
but now that i've been to Japan, i just feel even more motivated to just get BACK to Japan. i just don't really know how to explain it. Wim Wenders explained it pretty well in "Tokyo-ga," the magic of Japan, what exactly it is about that place that makes it so wonderful to certain people. just watch that film and you'll know what i mean. but then again, the few of you that MAY read this probably won't see it, so nevermind. sorry-
