Well, there you have it folks. The main motivation for writing in my blog
was pressure from Mom to know what’s up in my life so now that I’m home I’ve
neglected the blog for months!
Gomen! Sorry! There’s always time to start again so here’s
to that. I’ve been quite busy in a
delightful way living at home with the folks.
First of all it’s great to be around loved ones again, though I miss
folks in Japan . I spend my days intensely studying German,
practicing (okay, so more piano than oboe), learning kanji, organizing the mess
of stuff I have from 24 years of my life, running, having serious discussions
with Mom (sadly Dad is off during the week on business), planning for Basel,
and last but not least, READING! Though
I’m told I read more than most, I never really got into reading as much as my
sister and especially my mother. In Japan I enjoyed
it more since I wasn’t as busy as I was at school, but I found it stressful to
come home from work, read, go to bed, then go to work again. I “lost” too much time. Now that my work in interwoven like an
unschooler’s I’ve discovered the delights of meeting with the greats mind to
mind. I’ve read ten books in October
alone. Who needs to go to school when
there are books? But I digress. I need to catch up on my last weeks in Japan , so
that’s all on the American life for now.
