Trying to be kind?!

  So, I had a flight out of Narita International Airport in a week. Then, I had someone ask a favor to bring some things to an event on the 13th. Based on the information that I received, they said it was food wrapping. So, I assumed it was compact food wrappings, thinking it was not a lot. So, trying to be kind, I said okay. Then the drama began.   They ordered the things they needed. One day, when I got home, there was a giant box full of rice ball packs. I was astonished. There were 1800 pieces in a giant box. I told them it was too big. It was over the size limit that airline companies stated.   So, I told them I needed to purchase a smaller box and pack them tightly so it all fits. So, I did, after consulting with them and deciding on the course of action. Then there were 7 bags left. So, I gave them to the friend of the person who asked the favor.   After everything was packed, he called and asked if I could bring all of it. In that moment, I wrote a rule in my...

It has been a minute.

Greetings to whoever is reading this, First of all, THANK YOU for being here. I have noticed that as we opt to watch content on video-enabled sites, we are losing touch, and our reading skills are slowly deteriorating. To avoid losing that and improve my English writing skills, I created the blog, and I thank you for reading whatever shenanigans come out of my mind.   Secondly, this week was extremely busy. After coming back from Mongolia at midnight, I had work at 8 am the next day. This was my second program for the summer, and I planned it for months. I am the type of person who would like to plan and execute my projects well and with quality. So, despite my tiredness, I pushed through and am relaxing now.   I don't run the program alone. Another teacher runs it with me. However, that teacher is like a little boy. His concentration is very short, and he doesn't know how to communicate well. I admit, sometimes, I wish I communicated more with him and spelled everything out t...

It always feels sad to say goodbye.

     It always feels sad to say goodbye.       It has been almost a month since I came home. I helped my parents, especially my mom, move things and clean. My mom just started a tourist base an hour from the city center. There were a lot of things to do, specifically, little things that needed to be done. Then I became an inpatient at Bodi Setgelten (the one I was hospitalized back in May of this year). I spent 5 days and got home today. Now, I have a few more days before I go.       No matter how many times I have said goodbye to my family and friends, I always feel sad. Initially, I felt like crying. I cried once when I had to leave my 3-month-old brother. Even though I don't cry anymore, I always feel sad.       Back in May, I thought to myself that I needed to come back home at least once a year. It helps my sanity and physically ( I am in a cooler environment when it is the hottest in Japan).  Also, I g...
