So, this would mean that I'm back from Japan. It's been a crazy five months of stress, happiness, and other different kinds of things that one gets when experiencing something new.

And you are probably thinking, "Well, isn't he going to tell his experiences in Japan?" and I would say that if you want to know, talk to me in person. Arm yourself with as many questions as you can and then come see me sometime . . . I'd be more than happy. Though answering in Japanese will be a trifle, so give me enough time to formulate my answer, haha.

However, in retrospect, Japan is basically a different country in a different part of the world with different customs and an entirely different language. It's still taking a lot of time to learn but I'm slowly getting used to that, and I can see things will only get better from this step on, hopefully. I fell in love in Tokyo, and even though it may seem like a stressful thing, I feel lighter. She gave me her address because I wanted to send her something --- and I will --- hopefully, it'll be greatest present she's ever received. Let's hope I don't make it boring!

美香ちゃん, this one's for you. If I could give you the moon . . .

I'll end, saying that, "it's good to be back."
