I’m trying to to a lot of things with all the free time I have right now.

I only have school three hours a day. I wake up an hour early before bed to webcam with my boyfriend and friends before. I eat lunch and study Japanese with my new friends after. Then I’m home by 2-3PM to study and run around for the rest of the day until a party or group dinner comes up. 3-11PM seems like a lot of hours of my day to be accomplishing all the tasks I give myself. But it just never seems like I have enough. That always seems to be the problem with me. So, so, so many lists. Sometimes I feel like my life is run by bullet points and check boxes. I’ve probably said that a million times already.. My mentor told me that I was the kind of person that chose difficult decisions because I wasn’t the type of person to want anything easily. If being that kind of person means checking lists off for the rest of my life - I’d rather have that than no list and nowhere to go.

I’m trying to put together a Japanese diary of my adventures here abroad, so it might be a while before I get the posts up because I want my tutors to correct them before I go around posting it for the world to see. I took a lot of pictures in Tokyo this past weekend and after editing, I’m going to put them into a portfolio I’m putting together. That will also be posted eventually…And then there’s the drawings everyday. All these 365 kind of projects are making me go through the roof, gahhh. 

So I guess, I’m saying - I’m on hiatus while I get these projects together. (So technically I am not breaking my “post every other day” new years resolution since I’m working on them outside of tumblr world).

As much as we want to erase some of them, memories were made to be remembered.
