After spending two great weeks in Thailand I am now back home in Japan. That fact is still very strange for me. Throughout my entire life I have always returned to the same house in Los Angeles where there are familiar surroundings and people. Now it seems that I have returned from a vacation only to be on another one. Living in Japan, for almost 4 months soon, has seemed like one long vacation. I am not saying it has always been fun, but rather I have yet to build a standard routine and lifestyle that so opposes that of a vacation. When I first came to Japan I made of list of things to accomplish by the end of my year, and so far my list has not gotten much smaller. It seems that I am the king of procrastination, continually putting things off until later so as they never get done. Yet, now I am back from Thailand. Now, there is nothing in the near future to wait for. So it’s time to get started.

Thailand was amazing. I did so many things that I have never done in my life and saw an equally amazing number of things as well. When trying to write about my trip the thoughts and images come pouring into my mind overwhelming me into a state of dizziness. Going through the approximate 1000 pictures that my friend and I took is a daunting task in itself, but soon I will create a photo gallery for all to enjoy… that is if I ever get the photo gallery done.

23!
