| The past 2 months in Japan have been great and slowly its coming to an end. I'm spending my last week at my foster family's house and its the most relaxing week I've had in a very long time. At the moment I am beside two men, both drunk and having a nap in their living room before they wake up and go off to bed. Nothing wrong with it really but I find it amusing because its happened every single time that I've spent the night here. With nothing else to do and no motivation to do any of my papers I decided to surf the internet and lo and behold I stumble on something I haven't thought about for almost 2 years....xanga....
As I look back through my journal entries and how my homepage looks like all I want do is curl up into a ball and die of embarrassment. Did I really write those things? Did I really make my page almost impossible to read with tiny font? Just looking at it makes me want to quit at life. It's extremely funny to me that while looking back on some of my entries that I thought I was mature at the time....and I'll probably stumble across this entry in a few years and laugh at myself again. Seriously though what was going through my at the time anyway?
Whats on my mind right now is what I will be doing once I get back to the states. I've got a nifty new camera lens in the mail, some computer parts and a apartment to set up all my stuff. As much as I have enjoyed Japan and how much I've fallen in love with it I'm still counting the days until I get back to America....maybe its the U-curve model finally setting in (don't worry the U-curve model is something that's been ingrained into my brain because of my major, don't worry if you don't understand).
Lastly I've been reading a few other people's entries and the subject of dreams came up. I found Denise's random dream entertaining and it sparked up an old memory of a dream that I had back in my Sophomore year in high-school. I remember it vaguely but after rereading the entry (and my lack of story telling) I remember it clearly now. To sum it up I saw two of my friends in a dark cave grab hold of dark orbs, when they finally got a hold of them the moment they touched them the orbs shone with light that I can only describe as the most beautiful feeling I've ever had. I say feeling because I'm not good with words. However when I grabbed a hold of them they remained dark. I remember the despair I felt in my dream and how when I woke up I vowed to change my life. Now looking back on that dream its inspired me recreate it with a photo. Photo 3 is coming this next semester and so that'll be one of my projects. We'll see what happens.
In other news...my mom got facebook...with a bunch of my older relatives...if you understand Japanese then I would probably call them ojisans and obasans....somewhat awkward but at least they're trying right? Its actually not that bad since most of them are my cousins.

| - Something is wrong when you spend an hour on the freeway going less than 5 miles per hour.
- Something is wrong video games start to bore you and you start to daydream in your spare time instead
- Something is wrong when you've currently only listened to the Beatles for the last 3 weeks.
- Something is wrong when you look at the clock and its 3 am and decide its still a bit early to go to bed.
- Something is wrong when you've worn your contacts 6 days in a row without taking them out and your considering wearing them one more day just so you can say you wore them for a week.
- Something is wrong when you get pissed at the people on the freeway for going too slow and you look down and see that your going 90.
- Something is wrong when you start to list what things are wrong with life.
In other news.....join the facebook club to help shave my roomate Mark Gandenburger 
Group name is SHAVE MARK GANDENBERGER and lastly I got a new cell phone number is (562)787-0521 I wonder if anyone is out there that doesn't even know me and reads this and puts my cell number in their phone.....freaky. | | |
| A few things that I've heard over the last three days constantly from friends and relatives.
"eh you have a job?"
"huh you drive? you have a car?"
"why are you always so dressed up?"
yup. I have a job, I sell knives for Cutco, and for any of you out
there who need a job look it up cuz it a good one. Yes I can drive, in
fact I drive way more than I want to, in fact i drove more than a
hundred miles today. And lastly I'm a fricken salesperson now so I have
to dress up nice.
How does being a salesperson/youth pastor/christmas concert coordinator
give you more sleep and free time? It doesn't. I feel so busy that my
heads spinning. Whatever happened to the good old days of me being able
to just lie around anywhere and going to sleep? I want it back...give
me back my slacker time.....
