| Oh, Xanga, I have forgotten you ...
Does anyone still read this anyway?
If so, hop on over to my Japan blog, http://michimichiru.livejournal.com I actually, you know, update there, for my friends, relatives, and whoever else happens to stop by.
And yes, by the way, I am indeed in Japan right now ^_^

| If you haven't spoken with me for a while (and let's face it, that would probably be my fault), you might not know ...
There is a 96 percent chance that I will be spending my next college semester in Japan.
As in, I'll be flying away at the beginning of January and spending four months in the Land of the Rising Sun.
Needless to say, I am both excited and nervous as a sweaty-palmed high school freshman about to confess his love to the girl of his dreams (not that I know what that's like). This is probably the biggest thing I've done in my life thus far. (Whatever "biggest thing" means...)
... I still need to buy plane tickets, though. Air travel is terribly expensive; no wonder Americans stick to their own country. (Sad yet true?)
Anyway. Should this go through (and it had better; I'm too much vested in it already), I'll probably make a new, special blog for my time there, and I'll probably put a link here so that anyone who might have a casual interest can join in my adventures. Assuming I have adventures. I'll probably just spend way too many hours studying Japanese and pining away for the cherry blossoms. I better be seeing some cherry blossoms, dangit.
That's about it for this life update. Have a lovely day/week/month.

| Sometimes when I walk along the pathways of this campus, I feel as if I don't exist.
The orange leaves fluttering over the black bark of the tree trunk ...
The slight breeze pushing past ...
The tender green grass poking its head through the ground, ignorant of the changing seasons ...
It seems too beautiful to be real, and thus, I, the witness of it, cannot be real either.
Yet, here I sit, typing in fragments and obsessing over nature again.

| I haven't updated in a very long time. Would anyone actually read this if I updated?
Synopsis of this (school) year thus far:
I live in a very nice on-campus apartment with two new roommates. We get along pretty well. We also have an extremely large bathroom, so we will never yell at each other for spending too long in front of the mirror. Perhaps this figures into the first statement? (Somehow, I am unable to talk about my apartment without talking about the bathroom because I am still amazed by it. Yes, I am silly.)
My dog died last Wednesday -- he was 13, and had just gotten sick when I moved back in. Though my heart aches just a touch to type it, I still don't feel like he's gone, since I haven't been home to see the emptiness in the places I associate with him. I know that when I do return home, I will miss him very much.
My classes seem all right. The low point (which isn't too low) will probably be 17th c. British Lit, even though my prof is wonderful and the material's not as hard to understand or dull as I worried it might be. It's simply that my other classes were all ones that I really wanted to take (as opposed to the next item to check off): Japanese, The American Novel, Shakespeare, and *my favorite thus far* Linguistics. This will not be an easy semester, but it shouldn't be dull either.
Not much else that I can articulate; I'm still on the newspaper staff as a copy editor, I still indulge in the same activities for fun, and I still don't have a digi-camera with which I would be able to enlighten you with picspam (alas).
I will probably be going to Japan next semester.
I still can't seem to go to bed when I should. *sigh*

| I haven't updated in a very long time, have I?
(The answer is: "No, you haven't," in case you had to think about it.)
Classes have finished. Finals are not yet begun.
(But my first final is a take-home, so I have no excuse for not working on it.)
I don't really have anything to say, do I?
(The answer is: "No, you don't, you silly girl," in case you had to think about it.)
I'm feeling subtly melancholy. Bah humbug.
