General Comments on New Year
Without a doubt, this is the most unusual and hectic New Year period I’ve ever gone through. Throughout this entire period, I actually haven’t been eating much. That is pretty understandable, given my highly advanced state of distress and confusion.
Let’s see what I’ve been up to…
1. Looking for $$$. Literally. Money that would pay for my college education.
2. Looking for someplace to work! Reading through corporate websites is no joke.
3. Shopping for a bow and other attachments - that’s Hoyt, Shibuya, Samick, and other companies to look into…
4. Reading random stuff on Wikipedia
5. Shopping at cdjapan (ordered Kawada Mami’s newest album)
6. Translating 君との明日 (haven’t finished it yet)
7. Filling in council election forms (by god they’re a real headache)
8. Brooding about getting rich and glorious and happy (plus some other more pressing problems on the side)
9. Deliberating choice of cameras
10. Running and doing other exercises
11. Talking to treasured friends and loved ones on the phone for long periods of time 
12. Counting money. Fortunately this year’s takings are not too disappointing and my long zoom might actually be within reach for once.
But other than the fact that life isn’t exactly stressful in the conventional sense and the fact that I am pretty comfortable physically with the air conditioning on I haven’t been exactly sleeping very well or been feeling particularly happy, so to speak. But at least it isn’t exactly depression, just distress. ^^
I still haven’t decided which gathering to go for tomorrow. I guess I’ll probably just go with the class. They’re nice folk, I would say, just that I don’t get along terribly well with them. I shall like just… stop freaking them out? Perhaps that’ll work. Yeah it would. Maybe.
