Sun Oct 17 04 / 8:22 AM After six hours of dragging the lightest piece of my luggage through Tokyo while my two great friends carried everything else, I am closeted in a room somewhere in central Japan, experiencing mixed feelings. I haven't cried since I left Canada, but today seems like a good day to start. I am alone in Japan for the first time, and despite my extreme independence, I hate being alone. The last month with James and Tanya was so great, and I only recently realized it was because of the untainted enjoyment of simply being friends. Life in Shimodate was going nowhere, but the desperation was so slow to sink in that I could have done it for a long time yet. But then I think of my own Japanese apartment I will be moving to next week, the money I will be making teaching English, the iPod Mini in the chance machine at the video store. Maybe I can also do this for a long time yet. |
