overwhelming
there has not been one day in Japan when i did not feel compelled to write in my blog. notice how there have been many days where nothing has been written. I hate long entries and some days I know that's what will happen if I start letting thoughts escape. This also explains the short, random quips in the middle of entries. I'm thinking about getting a tape recorder and making an audio diary. I have never had a diary and writing is not the form for me, at least rightnow.

i finally met a foreigner yesterday. She's from canada. I ran into her (or she into me) at the grocery store. It turns out she's an English tutor for one of my co-workers. So now I'm officially surrounded by 6 million Japanese and one Canadian. Ain't life grande.

Last night I went to the gym. It was the third day in a row I kicked my own ass. I will probably go for a run later and make it four for four. This will happen right before the AIESEC party. It's funny because they don't call it a party. They call it a drinking party. For some reason, party does not imply drinking. I laughed; no one else got it. To get to the party I have to take a train, except I've never traveled on this providers tracks. There are 4 different railway companies. Why doesn't the US use trains again? Shima-san said he bought a new van in April of this year. It now 1,800 miles on it. I put more miles on my pile in the first two weeks of acquiring my license.

It's very weird having money. I've been keeping track of my finances (cause I'm anal) and I didn't even spend half of my monthly stipend. That's sad. I think I'm living like a king, but hey, I guess there's still room for growth. Problem is I have no wants. I'm doing everything I want to. I need to think bigger. I guess this Egyo reunion will put me under. I'm going to look harder into that charade. badger game is once again not being televised over the internet. pos.

Last: I'm going to the batting cages on sunday. Company pays for it again. I suck at baseball. I just love following it. I guess that wasn't relayed to clearly. Afterwards we're going to a hot springs. Once again, nothing is coming out of my wallet.
