Thank you so much to all my beautiful friends for taking such good care of me when I was home for those 12 days. I count my lucky stars to have such wonderful friends in my life. I love you guys ^_~ It was definitely a whirlwind trip, I was out nearly every day and every night. The weekend was crazy...but I had such a fabulous time. I hardly saw mum and dad but I guess they sort of knew that was going to happen, and they were cool about it. I had 1 home made meal and the rest of the time I was just eating out...I come back to Japan and my boss tells me "...hmm, I bet you ate alot over there, you've gained weight..." told you Jap men are blunt!
There were a few friends I didn't see and I feel really bad about it, but I simply just ran out of time...Please don't hold a grudge, I still love ya.

Yes, I did see my special friend. He told me what I needed to hear to get over him completely. It's so hard being the mature one out of a past relationship. I called him just to pass on my condolences, but he took it as in I still wanted something to do with hime...maybe I did, but after what he said it just made me realise that I was probably hanging on to nothing, even though we went through some really difficult phases together. He said that his father and his girlfriend are all that he has left now, that they're his family, even though he has many brothers and sisters and great cousins. He doesn't see his friends because most of them are married, that's such a silly way of thinking...Being married doesn't mean they're cutting people out of their lives, they're still the same, they still hang out and have fun. I don't know whether he knows what he wants to do with his life. He was saying that by next year he will have moved to Melbourne and that there will be no way to contact him...*sigh* I really hope he finds what he loves in Melbourne, or where ever he is...That's a chapter over for good.

It's a cool day in Mizukami today. The breeze is cold, but the sky is blue and the sun is out. Summer is nearly over...
