Thanks Rhianna, I’m glad you like them! I want to see some of your Diana shots please! And yes, that’s my older sister, Melody. :)
So much to consider in the next few months. I desperately want to go home to my Blake, my family, and my friends, and am about 90% sure that’s what I’ll do in August. However, I have so much to see here, and I am hellbent on becoming fluent in Japanese. I just don’t know. If I did stay I’d either move into Tokyo or to Kansai (Osaka, Kyoto, or Kobe), so I’d probably...

Allllll my damn friends on the internet love or are starting to love sports. And they post about it constantly. Which, I get, totally. But, I still don’t care about sports. I’ve had my moments where basketball ball season lured me in because the games were especially titillating, but otherwise, don’t care. It weird that it feels like getting older = liking sports. That sounds...

Time to get crack a lackin on my Japanese again. I haven’t done any lessons since the day before Mel arrived…that’s like 3 weeks ago! Terrible!

When 100,000 people die in devastating natural disasters, it can put your life into perspective. This is why I think to myself without question: “Your problems ain’t shit. Get it together, because it could be a lot worse.”
Just sayin.
And I only used “ain’t” for emphasis. Had to say that since I’m an EFL teacher and all. Maybe I should apologize for...

My students in one of my classes found me out today. I usually avoid using Japanese in class for the most part because when the kids find out that I can understand some Nihongo, they start speaking it in class even more when they’re communicating with me. Especially students in the 10-13 year old age range. But, I told my class to turn to page 38 in their workbooks, and one of my favorite...
