Big house= Big cleaning task

So I'm back in Japan. My family was here for about a month and being alone in this ginormo house is lonely. It also sucks cleaning it, and dust just accumulates EVERYWHERE! I haven't had the motivation to go and do much these past 2 weeks after my family left.
I need to get busy on the cleaning because I have work tomorrow and then i'm helping ellen move her stuff in sunday. She is staying with me for a bit before she goes back home. Staying in a hotel is so not homey so i think she is better off here. Oh yeah... I'm working at my school again but this time as a part time teacher. As of now only saturdays. I'm currently looking for another job, something more coporate. I should probably start looking more actively.
In preparation for working in a corporate area over here i have begun to study kanji daily. I decided that I'm going to start a journal and start writing in japanese. This way I can look up vocab and practice writing and grammar at the same time. We will see how long i continue that. I have yet to even start.
I am putting off cleaning... for obvious reasons however it needs to be done before i go to sleep tonight... boo
i can't believe its already mid-May. I'll be 25 when the end of this month hits yeesh. Thats such a weird thought. How did the years go by so quickly. sometimes I don't really feel like an adult. Well better get cleaning hopefully i will have more interesting news and not just babble on for the next entry.

wow... it has been a while

sooo keeping up with this thing hasn't been as easy as i thought it would be. Working has kept me unbelievably busy.
So I finished out my contract and it has been a full year. I can't believe how quickly it passed. At the moment I am home in Ohio and surrounded by snow. I'm glad to be back though. It always feels good to come home. I'll be around for about a month then its back to Japan!
