| well... I guess things do have a way of turning around... I have no idea how but God was with me I guess, haha, it's great XD well, Although the events in the morning was really really not-so-good-as-planned, the evening was great, after texting/talking/ IMing, I felt a lot better, then I decided to go out and take a walk and think about a lot of things, while doing so, I passed by a Japanese restaurant called Misaki, and I just thought that I could just drop by and do the application. After talking to the female manager, I was able to show her that I had the ability to speak in both English and Japanese, she became interested, and then listened to my story of how I am here and all that. She was nice about it, and said that she might call or something. I never even thought of it that much and just went back to where I'm residing. After getting back into my comfort zone and had the computer opened up in front of me, I recieved a call from this weird number, picked it up, and wala~ it was the manager from Misaki wanting to know if I wanted a job as a host, so I was like YES~ and so now... I have a job, haha, it's great, that job only requires me to work in the afternoons so I get mornings off, and it'll definately get me back some of the money I desperately need to pay for school Haha, God's awesome | | |
| Man, it's been some time since I've been on xanga, I'm just really bored now. At times fun things happen to me so that I am 'entertained' and feel lik everything is going great, but there are still those times that I get super bored and feel lonely. The good thing about being lonely is that it magnifies the greatness of being able to do something, but in the same way, it can be a bad thing because the greatness of being able to do something also magnifies the loneliness one gets. Therefore, a need of equilibrium arises, I need to raise my low part of life so that it begins to rise towards the time of life that all feels great. It would mean that it wouldn't feel as great, but at the same time, I think that it makes my life more simple and amazing in itself, that there wouldn't be that many dramatic changes going on. I don't know about anyone else, but because of this, I believe that if I keep myself busy doing something, I would not feel the loneliness as it crashes down on me, but still be able to totally appreciate the greatness of hanging around, or doing some activity, keeping me busy, that's the only trouble of living on your own in some place you're unfamiliar with. I think that maybe next year, I'll be able to get used to this, and possibly make good friends so that I would be able to easily live through everything. But first thing's first, I need to survive this summer. I'm just going to do my best in everything and just go for it XD | | |
| I finished the marathon yesterday, and thanks to my friends, I was able to get a good time, thanks to all who cheered, encouraged, helped, prayed, or did anything for me. I'm really grateful, and it was because of you that I finished this marathon here's what happened:
I got first place in my age division
I got 12th place overall (439 people finished)
My time was 3:11:43 which is about a 7:16 mile average, and I'm so glad that I was able to do that thanks again for all you guys that cheered me on!! | | |
