So we got our internet service shut off for a few days. I guess that's what happens when you ignore your mail--including the envelope with the returned application (for automatic deductions from bank account) because it was sent unsigned.
Remember just because you can't read it (Japanese mail) doesn't mean you shouldn't read it (ie. find somebody who can). Haha!
Other than that, a girl has been very busy at work. Our students put on a Christmas presentation on December 15. It was quite fun preparing for it. I love making props and dealing with sets and music and dancing and acting. But it was a tremendous amount of work.
Now it is finished and things are winding down as we prepare for the holiday. A girl has been doing quite a lot of thinking about her life lately. So many things I have been putting off because my mindset has been, "When I get back to America, that is when my REAL life will begin."
Somehow, my time here has just felt like one long over-extended vacation. It didn't feel like 'regular life'. Now, we are faced with the prospect of actually staying here perhaps a little longer than I intended and I have been faced with the realization that my life is going on right now, right here, all the time. I don't have to wait to do certain things in my life. I don't have to wait to live.
I've been doing it (living) all this time!! Who knew??? Looks like I've got some plans to get in motion, hunh?
Toodles,

Yup! You definitely have things in motion!
Opportunity is what YOU make it. A lot of cats have talent..but it's the dream + drive that makes a heck of a difference.
Oh, yeah. You are absolutely glowing in the pict with the purple jacket. Being away from Faragutt works wonder doesn't it?
You're a star Kid. Live life!
All the best!

Welcome back! I was hoping you weren't giving up on your blog just as I was discovering it.
Hey girl, thanks for dropping by AGAIN! How wonderful! Yes girl, that's the thing about the present, it's a gift, it's all we got and that's where we got to act out our life--hard thing to remember all the time but try looking up at the sky a lot, it helps to remind you and keep you grounded. It works for me.
Will drop by again. Stay strong. I love your work and energy. It really helps me.
Hugs,
