I saw a movie for my Modern Japan class. I have seen it before. The actor looks a lot like Atsushi and I cannot get him off of my mind. I do not want to get him off of my mind. How is it that I still miss him?

Life rushes by way to fast. It is already the end of second week. Ballet is going really well. We have rehearsal about 5 days a week. It is so much and the show will be great. You had better come!

I have been working really hard to stay upbeat these days but I will have to admit that I am absolutely exhausted. Ballet seems to be the only time of day when I do not feel completely worn out.

I talked to mom two nights ago though and got my apetite back for about 12 hours. I have been finishing up all of my tasks, walking around my little county thing (kamigyo-ku ( Read more... )

Friday night Arisa and Megumi set up a surprise good-bye party for me with a bunch of my ballet friends. It was at a lovely resteraunt, and Marippe even brought me a little cake. It was so sweet and I was so surprised. Afterwards, I went to karaoke with Arisa, Naomi, and a few others. They sang me lovely songs and I could not help but cry. It ( Read more... )
