A Long Awaited Return
It is time to revisit my blog here. I haven’t been around for a while but it seems that is not uncommon. I really only visit my dashboard when I am genuinely pissed off or depressed, for me they are really the same thing. Events as of lately are not very exciting to readers nor [...]

In English we use the word pretty to describe the extent to which something is aesthetically pleasing but the past few months have happened fast, not particularly pretty fast. I have had a whole shit ton of stuff. This is long post simply because I’ve been writing and not posting. Here are some of my [...]

Dear JapanSoc community, I am currently a student attempting to learn Japanese. It has become evident that I am falling behind my class.

20. December 2009
Three A.M. on a fall night. Location: irrelevant. No wind, no clouds, no noise. The highway is even absent of vehicles at this hour. Pure bliss. Maybe there is a distant sound of some power plant or a lone car in a neighborhood street but still silence. The temperature is cold but not freezing and [...]

Phasers set to kill and goals set to achievable. In this ultimate quest called life I have chosen to just keep moving. There is no time and no blog worthy of writing that can encompass my life’s philosophy but the short story is that I have the will to change, thus, change. I am going [...]

14. December 2009
Preparing a trip to Japan on a student budget is harder than I expected. There is a story to be told about my decision to visit Japan first. My roommate and I decided, spur of the moment, we were going to go to Japan. We are both studying Japanese at university and were simply browsing [...]

10. December 2009
College is supposed to be the best time of some one’s life. Unfortunately its a lie. The experience is full of reality checks and full of becoming part of the real world. I am at a point in my life where I cannot let my dream escape me for the sake of my mental health. [...]

Imagine a time when those plastic covers on electrical sockets did not exist, a time before car seats, a time when a sling shot was considered a safe plaything, a time when secondhand smoke was still a myth, and a time when bell bottom jeans and John Travolta defined the world. I know this all [...]
