booooooooooourns! my md battery just died on me. and that was the only thing keeping me sane on this dark dreary rainy day with nothing to do at work. at least i have internet access unlike some of my counterparts. two of my classes got cancelled, so i technically only work 2 hours today. man, life is too easy. its no time to be complacent. im gonna needs to set me some goals! none of that nansy pansy new years resolutions stuff, i mean it this time!
hmmm...im noticing myhair has a lot of split ends. tempted to sneak off with a pair of scissors and sort that out. no! focus karen focus! okay, okay. my goals:
1. start contributing articles to local publications. i was supposed to write one last month, but dropped the ball on that. sorry dudes, but even i cant make a trip to a flower garden interesting. that, and i only spent like 5 minutes there before it closed (hee hee...kinda got distracted on my way there).
2. eco challenge, iron-woman, climb mount everest. obviously these are long term fantasy goals. but no harm in dreaming rite? i figure if i start out light, such as taking jogs in the evening instead of remoulding the ass marks on my sofa, i'll do alrite!
3. master a new language. eto, watashi no nihongo wa mama ima desuyo, demo ifu i studyeru moru, i wiru geto betteru. should also start brushing up on my fer-anch. donc, ca sera plus difficule parce qu'il n'y a pas beaucoup des gens qui peuvent parler francais ici, mais j'ai quelque amis que le savent. bien sur, gambatte! as well, mandarin would be pretty handy. dammit, why'd i have to know the useless chinese?
4. eat healthier!!! i went on an instant ramen binge when i got back from thailand just cuz i was so spent. but i resisted buying donuts yesterday in favour of some wholesome yogurt and muesli. and for lunch, no meat! got some rice balls and tofu. its actually tastes better than im making it sound.
5. more goals karen? man im being ambitious!!! which ties in nicely to my final goal. to be more ambitious. i feel like im losing a bit of that fire within me being in japan. life is so ordered and i dont have to worry about anything. im like a spoiled overpaid monkey here only for the amusement of teh japanese. "greet the class" "ask them about the weather" "get the class to repeat this passage after you" "now read this passage in a yiddish accent" goooood karen. im technically the prefectural representative for the JET environmental network, but i havent done shitall since ive been here. well, aside from hosting the BEE bike group. from here on in, thats going to change!!! get my gears all pumped. lets ikimasuYOOOOO!!!! after i fix these split ends that is :-P
