more from the lightbulb of feeling

I have come all the way to Japan to feel unfulfilled. Somehow I thought that the act of coming to Japan would make me a different person; instead it has shown me exactly what is wrong with the person I am. My life since university has been nothing but a labourious exercise in killing time while time of course does much worse to me. Living life well seemed like such a great purpose, but the necessity of having to work to live makes that purpose seem impossible.

I am here to make money, and while I am not doing that I wonder what I am doing. Playing house in my aparment with improvised items like I used to do with my dollhouse has been enough to get me through the first week in Yokohama. But today I found out that the six months I was to be here while my new house is being built has been delayed to eight months. I spent all last year doing nothing, and it only gets harder.

Can you procrastinate a life?
