A New Year with New Thoughts

I’m finally back in action! Happy New Year everyone! Around this time of year, everyone seems to be out making new year’s resolutions and such: “I won’t drink for a month, I promise to lose weight, I won’t eat ramen everyday this week,….” I personally don’t really understand new year’s resolutions. Sure, the new year [...]

Long time no see!

It’s been a while since I wrote here. Mostly because end of term is coming in Japan. These past couple of days it’s snowed. Today, it snowed. Tomorrow more snow. In fact, the next 3 days are supposed to snow. Sounds like a lot right? I wish. This is the first time I’ve ever seen [...]

My teacher just stared at me and laughed. I said, “Real encouraging!” Here’s what I really said,… I guess with all the surgery he had it isn’t [...]

SNL

Bird Bombs Away!

Now mom always told me never look up when a bird flies overhead. She also said if you did, it could get you in the mouth. Well, today I did the exact opposite, I looked. Sure enough, I got the chance to see a crow missile with a perfect arch in my direct path of walking. [...]
