just wanna give a quick update of my present situation...

- having no internet connection at home is so inconvenient. i gotta travel to school like every night just to make use of the computer there, and causing worry in my boss's son at why the office's light is still on late at night. =P

- typing this entry at my friend's place in Osaka now. came here to see the Tenjin Matsuri today and ended up too late to go back to Kobe. it's been an adventurous day... takoyaki party, wearing yukata, squeezing through crowds of people at the festival, watching fireworks, making friends with a 50+ American and 20+ Indonesian, watching "Bu neng shuo de mi mi" DVD and finally now, making use of the computer while my friend has already gone to bed.

- it's the weekend but i've got absolutely no plans! *sigh* nobody seems to be free to company mi...

- living alone is really lonely... and having no job is even lonelier. go out everyday by myself... reach home also by myself. in addition, the new apartment may be near the sea, but there are no shops or restaurants nearby! even the 5-min walk from station to home is so lonesome.

- i really wonder why i'm so stupid to bring extra trouble to myself by indirectly having to help my colleague set up her new place... and having to live through this troublesome period of staying in an incomplete apartment.

- things always don't seem to be going my way recently. or maybe it's simply because i think too much.

- actually, it's not that bad staying this extra 1.5 months in Japan lar... or so at least i keep telling myself. after all, i get to experience so many new things! however, the only thing i can't convince myself is having to forgo the chance of the joining my university's dance concert in september. was invited by my senior to participate in the alumni's item but was later told that i can't because i'm going back too late. *sobs* and i thought it would be a good chance to help recover the friendships with my dance mates. really worry if i will be able to fit in after going back...

- trip to Hiroshima last weekend was great! really 白吃白喝白住 for 4 whole days. everyone was so kind to me and always drove me to my destinations. it's a pity that i didn't plan well enough so could only spend a short time with each group of people. but the happy thing is that i can communicate with them perfectly now! 1st time to Hiroshima 3 years ago, i could understand only less than half of what they said; 2nd time 1.5 years ago, maybe more than half; And now, it's almost complete understanding! feel really proud my myself. =) anyway, i'm definitely going back for a 4th time in future to return my thanks. pictures on my facebook!

the "quick update" seems to have gotten a bit too lengthy so i guess it's time to end... and think about what to do for the weekend by myself!
