Ive been in Japan for almost 2 months now and it is pretty legit. I LOVE IT! Back home I HATED public transportation. I am one of those people that is loud and crazy with her own personal group of friends. i don't like being around other people. I suffer from a social anxiety. Which is odd cause here I'm totally ok with public transportation. i would probably even be ok taking the train by myself. But i wont do that cause its dangerous. lol.
The point is this place has changed me. it has given me a new chance to be who i couldn't bring myself to be back home. I even cut my hair two weeks after getting here! 6 inches GONE! It's different being the odd one out. People do stare often. Especially on the trains. And it can be so frustrating trying to buy something when you don't speak the same language.
But i still absolutely love it here! the weekends are great! the weekdays are kinda lame though. While joey works i spend all day home alone then when he gets home we eat dinner watch some tv and he goes to bed and I'm up alone again. i don't have many friends here yet and no one to hang out with since most the people i do know work or have kids.
I miss home a lot. I miss my parents, my best friend, and of course my kitties. It sucks at night when i wake up expecting dolly to be curled up on top of me when in fact shes thousands of miles away. the 15 hour time difference doesn't help either. its super hard to talk to anyone back home unless they get up early or stay up late.
So ya i love it here. but I'm also ready for three years to be over with so i can go home. =p
