A) Obama has prevailed. Praise Americans for making the right decision!
B) I am pretty sure my Japanese Cultural Anthro. professor uses words the Japanese students can barely understand (if at all), let alone spell well enough to properly scribble them down in their notes.
On an entirely different note, I've been feeling uncharacteristically introspective lately. Or maybe I just have more time to myself forced on me so I'm only just now noticing it.
Buddhism teaches that everything in the world is interconnected, part of how they justify no killing. To follow Buddhism, to think this way, one must change the way they act before they can change the way they think. When I did youth corps a couple years back, one of the crew leaders put it well: "Fake it till you make it."
A couple issues that I'd been wanting to attend to while abroad is my lack of care of myself (eating more junk food than I should, not getting out and doing physical things as much as I should), as well as procrastinating more than is healthy. I figure if I can just force myself to do these things than it'll eventually become more natural to me, and not so much of an ordeal to do so. Problem is that I am finding it incredibly hard to get up the willpower to start. One of the wonderful things about having a significant other: someone close to you, who (presumably) wants the best for you, to push you when you don't have the power to push yourself.
This is becoming a blog more about me and less about Japan. Hrmmm. How should I remedy that?

Why do you need to make is less about you and more about Japan? There are already 16 million blogs on Japan and I can guarantee you a blog about you would be more interesting.
YAYE OBAMA!!!
You're right, I just feel like I deviated from my original intention with this blog. I can't help but think you are the only one that finds it so interesting, though :P
