1/24

I just realized that I only have six more months here. It made me start to wonder what I was going to do once I got back home.  Japan has become a part of me now, and I'm not sure how I'll get use to being away from it. Also before I came to Japan, I was living with my family and now I'm in my own apartment and have some semblance of independence. Can I really go back? I don't think moving into the dorms would help either. I suppose that I 'll have to wait and see. One thing that I will miss if I move out is not having to do my laundry. Speaking of which, I had to go do it today and I got scolded by the landlady in Japanese. Well, she didn't actually scold me as much as tell me that I had a lot of laundry and that I better not overload the machine.  I'm just glad that I could understand her.
