It’s getting towards the end of another year. Covid is still rampant, numbers are climbing again with the new variants… and now partially because of the pandemic there are also shipping delays! That means that for those of us who don’t remember to shop early, when we want to give gifts, our options are now […]

And unfortunately, that “on fire” part is literal. The west coast of America is burning up due to climate change that people in charge are still saying is a hoax. More and more these days, it’s easy to see the blatant corruption in America. And while some people are protesting, the government is using/planning to
The world is on fire, and I still have student loans Read More »
Just a short post today. So much is going on, and it’s stressful, but today was a day off of work, and I just stayed home and did nothing else, so I don’t want to think of it now. So instead, I’m going to mention the song that has been stuck in my head since

Pretty much all anyone can talk about these days is covid-19, the corona virus. And one of the major things they talk about is that we, America, did too little too late…and as rumors go around that things will start to open up again, I feel it’s too much too soon. I’m not an expert

Wow…I hadn’t realized that I hadn’t posted anything since October last year! I blame it partially on getting two retail jobs in November (which I didn’t want) because I’d burned through all my savings, thanks to student loans. At least one of the two jobs isn’t cashiering anymore, but rather cash office. Anyway, since I’ve
So… just realized that I have apparently not written even once since leaving Japan. As far as I can tell, anyway…the layout to the website is more confusing than I originally thought, so I’ll probably change it again. But anyway, if I haven’t written since August… long story short. I’ve been super depressed, more than

In the end, I couldn’t find a job in Japan…and you know, leaving Minamisoma was a bit harder than I’d thought that it would be. Going back to the US for vacation was a very different feeling than knowing that all of my belongings were in three suitcases I had with me and 14 boxes

Since I’ve been a little overwhelmed with all this moving stuff (I only have three boxes packed so far out of an entire apartment…) and since I knew the due dates on the loans had been pushed back since I’d been paying consistently for two years, I let it slide for just one month, since

I had never planned to. That is, I had come to Japan three years ago on the JET programme, intending to find something after the program that would allow me to remain in Japan at least part time for at least a few more years, if not forever. Yet despite 27 job applications, 3 skype/phone
It seems to happen a lot. It`s actually not so much that I forgot that I had the blog, but more that I tend to write out a script in my head, and then forget to actually type it up on the computer. Since I already “wrote” it, why do I need to write it
And once again, I forgot I had a blog Read More »
