so, i havent written much here in awhile. ive been busy with college. lots of studio works and projects and homeworks, which im doing right now. but iim taking a break.
life sux.
thats all i wanted to say. i finally realized how much things i have regretted in my life. if i ever was able to do things over again, i will. if the things right now r going to happen for a long period of time, i dunno how ill b able to take evrything. i dunno how long i can take this. i want to start my life over again if i had the chance...
to start my life over again. thats all i wish right now... i suck... i want to change that... but i guess i cant. i have to live the way i am right now. theres no way i can possibly change it. ive already changed my way of living so many times that i dont see any other good way to change. wat can i do?
life really does suck.
i suck...
at making decisions...
at caring for people...
at managing things...
at everything...
at life...

ive been back at blacksburg, virginia for quite a while now. it just happened to me that ive been lazy in writing a blog cuz i was having a lot of fun. unpacking was not great at all but stuff after that was fun. different from freshmen year when i didnt kno anyone, considering that no one from my high school comes here. but because it was my second year, i had more friends and knew around campus so there was stuff to do. im trying to enjoy before classes start but also psyched about classes at the same time. weird isnt it. well, im gonna do something else other than writing a blog now.

Im bak from the 3 weeks or so time in japan. lots of things happened, which were both fun and stressful. the whole three weeks as some of you may kno is for my church/religion, so it really wasnt for a vacation, like go where ever you want, whenever you want.
well here's the gist of my time in japan. the first 3, 4 days there, i went to a thing called Tenri Forum 2006. its the first symposium thing we had that involves english speaking followers. first day was harsh but it wasn't that bad. hearing lectures from different reverends and speakers throughout the world in english is something u dont see very often. basically, the topic was about my religion, Tenrikyo, and specific parts about it.
after that, i went to this thing called "international hinokishin corps". it was hosted by the Tenrikyo Young Men's Association (TYMA). many TYMA members throughout the world gathered to attend, ranging from Taiwan, Korea, Brasil, Hawaii, and America/Mainland. there we worked hard helping out people by doing clean up works, building stuff, etc. the most memorable one is at "jyatani mountain" where we carried and pulled logs/trees up the hill. so tiring. had a good work out during that time. also, i experienced my first time as a translator. not a simultaneous translator, as in translating wat the person sed on the spot, but a translator where you speak through a mic and transmit it to a receiver. i read it off the paper some other person translated, but it was hard. i had to hear the japanese in order to follow where in the speech he was at. it was fun tho.
that whole internation hinokishin corps ended in a week. after that, i went to kaigai shonen hinokishin corps. there, i was a counselor taking care of kids from 11-15/16 year olds. obviously, this was so hard. i stressed out soooo much. damn kids wont listen and had so many things to do. constantly was running aroung and trying to organize the kids into their respective groups. even the 15 year olds acted so immature. asking where they put their shoes, wat happened to their laundry, they lost their uniform - where could they find it, etc. etc. etc. why can't they take care of themselves? parents these days need to really discipline their kids a lot more and not spoil them. they need to do things by themselves for once. other than taking care of the kids, i was also a translator. I translated greetings, speeches, and things simultaneously out of my head. it was a good experience, something different. no rest running around and going to counselors meeting was hard. meeting always ended near midnight, and had to wake up around 530 and woke up at 4 once.
drinking with the other counselors were fun too towards the end. the head guy insisted on evryone to drink and he made lots of funny comments. the only english he knew was, "nice to meet you" and used it throughout the whole one week. i heard he used that phrase last year too. but to an extent where he sed it during the closing ceremony and disbanding time. so, we taught him some new english phrase: "wasaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabi" hahaha. he will definately remember that. lol. i got to kno lots of the other counselors from brasil, taiwan, and korea. it was cool even tho they were around 4+ years older than me. age doesnt matter if we have fun together.
well after all that ended, i walked around and went to places to buy gifts for everyone. that was really hectic. visited ppl at karaoke sometimes but didnt really do much after that.
the plane ride... now that's a totally different story. the stupid flight was around 3 hours delayed. i was on the plane and ready to take off. however, the pilot sed the airport in seattle's something is malfunctioning so they cant take off. the airport in seattle was a emergency landing place just in case anything happens. it took time for them to fix it. as a matter fact, i dunno if they fixed it or not because we took a different route bak. changing the course of the trip also took an hour or so to decide. eventually we went towards hawaii, which i think was our new emergency landing place, and went bak up towards north dakota and went to new york. oy, i was supposed to get to JFK/New York around 1140am scheduled time but arrives there around 250pm ish... so i got bak home around 5 cuz the luggage was slow. o well, atleast im safely bak home.
safely bak home so i can see my lovely girl soon. missed her dearly. i love you soooo much XD
****EDIT*** I've noticed that i hate travelling with my parents. especially my mom. she's so self-centered, i hate it. she treats me like im still 5. i cant do watever i want to. she drags me to places without my own will and she thinks i like it... i hate this life. im going to move out as soon as possible after i pay off all my debts from college.

here's a personality test i took, which i got from sisi. here it is:

Extraversion results were moderately high which suggests you are, at times, overly talkative, outgoing, sociable and interacting at the expense of developing your own individual interests and internally based identity.
trait snapshot:
rarely irritated, positive, tough, non phobic, fearless, likes the unknown, self reliant, high self control, confident, trusting, strong instincts, prudent, optimistic, willful, likes parties, prefers a specialized career, takes charge, altruistic, strong, high self concept, adventurous, practical, thoughtful
so this past couple of days was probably the most relaxing, stress relieving part of this year's summer so far. due to several stuff going on in my life, stress is piling up sooooo much. evrytime i wake up, i have atleast 2 or 3 strands of hair on my pillow... thats not healthy at all.
well anyway, i went to long beach island, where christie has a beach house over there and she's there for like a month or so. anyway, i first wasnt gonna go because I've been really stressing out and tired with things. i just needed time to relax at home. but thinking back, home is not a great place to be. sisi was there at the beach house too. i guess the reason why i went is that i really wanted to see her. i couldnt say no to her request of me going there. but i dont regret going because i had a great time.
im going to skip all the details cuz im lazy to write right now. but one thing for sure is that it was relaxing and i had lots of fun. i miss all my tech friends right now. a little more than a month before we go bak. a little more than a month to see sisi again. i love her even more again XD
im kinda gonna go on a 湘南乃風(shounanno kaze) rampage with the music for a while. their songs r great, especially the lyrics:
あの空へ あの空で 負けんじゃねえ 泣くんじゃねえ 俺が俺であるため
(to that sky, in that sky, dont lose, dont cry, to be myself)
自分の空へ 自由の側へ 飛べ最後に笑えるように
(to my sky, next to freedom, fly so u can laugh in the end)
数多くの自由を願い 数多くの不自由と闘い 家族と親友と共に
(wished for numerous freedom, faught numerous discomfort, with family and friends)
遠くの何かを狙い 届くと信じてやまない
(aimed for that something in the distance, thinking it will get there)
不器用なロケット花火のように がむしゃらに飛べ 真っすぐに
(like a clumsy rocket fireworks, fly recklessly, straight-forward)
P.S. i suck at translating... even though i found out today i would have to b doing it in japan... a simultaneous translation... just hear the japanese and translate it at that spot... its going to suck. well atleast it will b a good experience, i guess
