Hey Everyone,
It has been a while since my last blog entry. I am just a couple of days away from break with two more finals standing in my way. This has been...let say...an interesting semester. I started this semester unfocused because I was trying to get that comic chapter done for the manga competition, but alas, I couldn't get it done it time and have left it undone since then. This was not necessarily due to any sour feelings towards not finishing in time, rather I just didn't have the time nor energy to start working on the manga while trying to shift my focus back on to school...which didn't happen either... So in short, I enjoyed my classes this semester, but the semester itself was pretty unsatisfactory due to my lack of focus on it.
In the course of the semester, I did struggle with missing the friends I made abroad and missing life in Japan. The most painful part of missing everything is that I cannot just jump on a plane and visit the various places of Japan that holds some of my most treasured memories. It is just too much money to do so. So, as a result, I feel a bit trapped. Fortunately, some of my friends live in SoCal, so I can figure out how to hang out with them over break. I guess the title of this blog still is befitting...
Once school is officially over for the fall, I plan on finishing that comic of mine, post it online, and begin writing another one. Over this past weekend, I was able to get further in sorting out my photos from Japan, but now that they are categorized correctly, I need to separate the good photos from the bad and post them. Yet, another thing that I look forward to doing during break. Of course, video games, anime, and friend gatherings will also be scattered into the mix of break. Lastly, I would like to continue with this blog, sharing my continuing education on Japan and her history and culture with you guys. I just need to have sleep, food and energy to keep up with my plans and dreams...
Anyhoo, I thought I would update the dark corner of the net that is my blog on my recent activities. Hopefully I can share more about post-study abroad life soon.
Until then, Later peeps!
