I should really be doing my kanji homework....But it's tedious....
It's rained the last two days, so I've enjoyed ridiculously crowded trains. I'm not being sarcastic, I actually really enjoy crowded trains. I think it's my appreciation for awkwardness that makes it so easy to enjoy though. When I explained to my friend how you don't have to stand on your own, that others support you, we then got on a train that was fairly crowded. After we got off, she said she understood why I like them so much. ^.^ <3 <3 <3 I don't know how to adequately express my love for uber crowded trains. It's the companionship and support (quite literally) that clinches it for me, I think. ....Yeah, I can't even fully understand it.
I should really go to school by bike, but I've been so lazy....and it really has been raining. I'm hoping it rains tomorrow too so I can take the train guilt-free, but I don't think it'll happen. It's been beautiful in the morning, then rainy during the afternoon/evening, and beautiful again at night. It supports my belief that nature is a woman.
My weekend is looking busy, but Rozy is gonna come stay with us while she enjoys a Takarazuka performance. So I'll at the very least get to see her at night. <3
On Friday I have a tentative date with a friend to look at kimono at the shops where I usually get mine cheap. I have work on Saturday, and a date at the zoo with my usually busy host sister on Sunday, so I hope my ankle can bear with the work I'm gonna be forcing on it.
I haven't wanted to wear pants lately. They feel so cumbersome....So I think I'll wear skirts more. They're embarrassing, but it's not too bad if I wear some shorts or something underneath, so I'll do my best to bear with it. I just got a hole in one of the two pairs of pants I've managed to keep through the winter (yes, I'm disappointed), so I don't really have the pants to spare/wear anyway..... *sigh*
Is it weird that when I'm missing home I end up eating Oreos?
So I know this is a blog, for me, about my daily life, epiphanies, and quotes that are awesome. But don't I talk about myself too much? I get tired of writing 'I'. (Yes, the irony does not escape me) *tilts head* Should that be a double negative?
I've made plenty of acquaintances lately, but am unsure as to how to proceed to make them into friends. Any suggestions? It's a little lonely here sometimes. I may get a cell phone for my remaining months, but I don't know that I really want to. I enjoy not being able to be contacted until I get home. Call it a lack of restrictions/responsibility.
On the topics of the point of this blog, as well as skirts, a quote for you:
"Today in class, someone asked how long our essays needed be. My teacher replied "essays are like a woman's skirt, they need to be long enough to cover everything but short enough to keep it interesting". Favourite teacher? I think so MLIA" --Obviously from the mylifeisaverage.com site
"Essays are like a woman's skirt"....."short enough to keep it interesting"....I'm both amused and frightened.
Aw ducklings. I just impulsively commented on a friend from elementary school's facebook status. I'm an idiot...See, she's always posting about 'heartbreak' and 'playing the playa' and 'I won't be defeated by one heartbreak!'....The girl is whiter than me, her family is as redneck as mine is, and she's living the life, drinking underage ( think she might be legal), going to college, living with her best friends in a flat. I just get sick of her posts that sound nothing like the girl I was friends with. V.V So when she said 'ya gotta play them before they play you', I had to comment on how it takes all meaning out of any relationship when you assume everyone is playing.....Ducklings! 5 people were liking that status. I wonder how hard they're gonna jump my apricot. ....And she said 'Exactly' to my post...I'm not sure she understands what I was trying to say....
I think I'll try to replace all cuss words with cute, inconspicuous words in an attempt to stop cussing so much. Can you figure out what I was trying to say before I censured myself? :)
Epiphany: I have friends, and I have friends that I want to be REALLY GOOD friends with. I just have no idea how to go about making them that. :(
I wonder if I've posted this one already? It's rather hypnotic to me.....

*sigh* i hurt my ankle playing soccer (I think I landed on it wrong after I was tripped up by another player while running towards the ball). So now you have my empathy.
And we want to hear about you! That's one of the main reasons to have a personal blog, especially while being away for so long!
I agree with Reb. I like reading your blog because you talk about you.
The skirt thing scares me. Seems kind of inappropriate for a teacher to say.
About making friends- it's really hard work! For the people you want to be REALLY good friends with, you should try to plan activities that just the two of you can do together. I dunno if this is how it works for everyone, but for me, although I can get close to someone in a group setting, the individual stuff is what really works best.
