Well It's been an interesting week... I managed to scrape together enough cash to get through the weekend (big plans!), but next month is going to be a little hairy. With luck, I'll get things on track the first week and finally have a little money left over for once (I have more students now than ever before!). Unfortunately I seriously don't know ( Read more... ) -

Just some updates since I haven't written anything in a long time.
Work goes well. Got some extra classes this month due to some people leaving town/changing jobs/etc..
Finally took a trip outside of Oita city the other day. Went to Fukuoka with a friend and did some shopping. Had some wonderful coffee and cake as well.
Still have a cold. Since ( Read more... ) -
Hectic & Srs Bzns
Interesting afternoon today. Several surprises, a few dissapointments, but all is well in the end.
I'm working on new advertisements for myself. I need a good name for my classes/consultation services. Someday I might actually make a company with this name, but for now I'll follow a friend's advice and "make a business card".

Shiso soda
I am drinking a new Pepsi flavor: Pepsi Shiso
The Japanese pronounce that something like "pep-she she-so" (as in Shally shells shea shells by the shea shore, she shells shea shells...).
Shiso: Perrila frutescens, common names 'perilla' and beefsteak plant. Otherwise known as the rather bitter leaf used as edible garnish for sushi and various other ( Read more... ) -
Confessions by a payphone on the side of the road
I took the longest, straightest highway out of that dust bowl town.
The clear desert sky overhead, the pavement below, and the sound of the motor comprised the whole world.
I rolled my wheels across the desert and down into the valley.
The folk were kind, though they spoke a strange tounge.
I caught the gold fever and drove up into the mountains.

A review: Sex & Fury
Junkmail... Junkmail... Junkmail...
...I had a purpose here...
SEX AND FURY! Oh yeah!
*clears throat*
Having watched the film to it's very end, I have a new appreciation for the film.
Do you remember that time when Hollywood was just starting to really get rolling? Probably not; you would be quite old.
However, you saw the movies right? Back in the hey- ( Read more... ) -
Wholly Fake Matrimony
I have to come up with creative and eloquent prayers for a job as a wedding priest. Being an amateur writer, this should be cheesecake, but there's this funny thing.... I don't even know how to pretend to talk to god.

Frankencense and murder
Thine holy wraith hath led thee and thine into straife and rendered thee fools; deaf, dumb and blind to evil which cometh out of thy heart and dwells in the hearts of others. Led astray, thee doth wander into folly and failure taking it as joy well earned. This circus be naught but smoke before fire in which we burneth unaware, alike in our idiotic ( Read more... )
