Umm...7 months?

Sat Oct 28, 2006, 11:48 PM
  • Mood: Sentimental
  • Listening to: Neighboorhood #1 by Arcade Fire
  • Reading: "The Golden Compass"
  • Watching: "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou"
  • Playing: The Guitar and Piano

  • Drinking: Lots and Lots of Ocha
Yeah...So I haven't updated in like 7 months. Considering my "Fan base" consists of maybe 4 people, this isn't that difficult to pull off. Anyway, so inspiration tends to hit me in many different ways.
1)It punches me
2)It kicks me
c)It makes me forget whether I'm using numbers or letters.

But seriously, whenever I get that inspiration to produce some form of art it either results in me writing this story that I hope to finish when I'm 40; Writing music, playing music, singing music (probably the most often); or drawing.
Now drawing used to be my main thing and I often got discouraged when I saw my skills were slipping. I kind of gave up...a lot. All too often, I would get a wonderful idea and then so many aspects of the idea were lost in transit from my mind to the paper. Or I'd be at a point where I'd be quite content with my ability to draw, and then I'd be too depressed or unsinspired to draw anything. Well, now I decided that since I like to do so many other things other than drawing, It's going to be impossible to be phenomenal at all of them. So from now on, I'll update when I feel like it, I'll write when I feel like it, and I'll make music when I feel like it.

Oh yeah, another reason why I haven't been updating much is because I'm currently living in Japan, and have been for almost 3 months. I'm going through rotary as an exchange student for a year and I seriously cannot describe how amazing it has been. However, I have been keeping a blog/ travel log thing up as a way to inform my friends and family back home about what's going on down here. Here's the URL:

I have been trying some photography recently as well and as soon as I capture something that I declare worthy of updating, I will do so. Oh also, my friend :Manjuu:, will be coming to Japan as well this march. Her art is amazing so check that out as well.

Anyway, things over here have been incredible and I've really noticed it's quite a "life-changing experience" *cough cough cheesey cough cough*. No but seriously it is. And if you're interested in foreign languages or cultures, or even if you're not, you should definitely look into foreign exchange. You seriously will have no idea of what an amazing experience it is unless you try it.

Well...that's about it.
