wsup. tomorrow is my last day~

-Sorry I made you all think I was going to jump off a mountain cliff here in my last post XD. (Nagano’s mountains are so pretty, it would actually be quite nice lol)

-I’ve actually really come to terms with leaving, and am kinda excited to see everyone!

-I must warn you all that my gifts are super mediocre (like, you might get mad… they’re really crappy souvenirs LOL SORRY T~T). It’s a misconception that there’s tons of cool stuff to get here. The coolest thing is just experiencing things here, living life here. And I can’t bring that back, so you get may or may not get something crappy from me… XD

-Small update about what I’ve been up to since I was gonna drown; I carried omikoshi at a festival, went to a festival, went to onsen for first time, saw the Hana Yori Dango ~final~ movie in theaters (to the envy of everyone not in Japan!! YAY!!! It was really good. I was actually really moved. And Matsumoto Jun is really hot… I want to marry Domyouji so bad T~T. Anyways, the theater was sweet.), finished up some shopping, puri, ufo catcher, etc. I’m not going to be detailed with anything so I can have a lot to talk about when I get back. If you want to know more about any specific thing, I will for sure be able to rant about it lol .

-I’ve been really busy with presentations and essays and letters too. I keep getting told to do stuff, agh!

-What’s really depressing is that everyone’s telling me that I ‘nihongo umaku natta’ (got good at Japanese) and I know I’m not going to have the chance to live speaking Japanese anymore and it will just disintegrate.

-Oh and yes I’m doing my best to enjoy my last days here, stop pressuring me, people! To be honest, though, it’s just like when I left America 6 weeks ago… I couldn’t believe I was leaving America up until the point I left. Right now, I can’t believe I’m leaving Japan on Thursday morning…. (Wednesday night for you guys, I think?) Ask Max please! I’m not sure!! LOL

-OH and FUUUCK I’ve only read 1.5 of 4 books and have wrote 0/3 essays FUCK LOL

-TOMORROW’S MY LAST DAY! I’M GOING TO SCHOOL (BUT IT’S A HALFDAY), AND THEN IDK, I’M GONNA BLOW ALL MY MONEY AND GO KARAOKE OR PURI OR MISTERDONUT WITH MY FRIENDS LOL!! IDK WHY THIS IS IN CAPS BUT I NOW FEEL A LITTLE BIT COOLER. XD

Lots more but I need to write my damn ‘experience in Japan’ essay. No updates until I’m back.

YOU! Thanks x1000 for following my trip all this time… it has meant a lot to me ;~;!

I’m going to miss everything here, but yes… I’ve stopped being bitter about leaving, and started being happy I had this experience at all. That I begged my parents for several months to let me go. That I went through writing essays and applying for this even though there was a risk of wasting my summer and having a horrible time. It was all more than worth it… this was really one of the best decisions I have ever made. Actually, the best decision I have made in my entire life. I’m really glad I’ve lived long enough to do this.
