wastashi wa?

tsukareta desuyo! so tired. got in from two hours of karate. i don't think i can kick anything ever again. just want to go to sleeeeep...and its only 9:30 pm. lol...man, i'm getting old! look what japan is doing to me! it's making me an ADULT!!! gasp! well, an adult who gets to go snowboarding in hiroshima this weekend. SCORE!

eto...my japanese is undoubtedly improving. i get the jist of what people say to me most of the time. and sometimes i even give an appropriate response! right now i'm watching japanese tv. but it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. and you know what? i'm okay with that. i'm okay in my oblivious little bubble. cuz sooner or later, i know its gonna burst so might as well enjoy the peace while i can.

today, nishihashi sensei gave us our contract confirmations. its in my hands, it's legally binding proof that says i will stay in japan another year. and yet i don't believe it. the reality hasn't hit me. i tell people i'm staying another year, and at the same time i dont feel like its true. why am i so afraid to commit?
