How's everybody doin'?

Me, I'm fine. Well OK, I was heartbroken for a while because I just found out that my uber-cute Japanese TA is engaged. The degree to which I was actually down about that took me by surprise. I was even all ready to psyche myself up on the last day of class and straight-up ask her out. Not like she would have said yes, but I would have felt a certain accomplishment in having tried - and it would have made a great story 10 years on. But the good part of all that is it's really strengthened my resolve to go live in Japan. By now I really can't wait to go. I think it won't be long before I feel like the rest of college is a formality, the epilogue in this little story in the mini-series that is me. I guess the whole 'senior year' thing is coming back.

In the meantime, I'll just be here cranking up the Lost in Translation soundtrack and studying my kanji.
