Day 196 { Lonely }
Boy I must admit that since it touched the six (6th) month mark of being in Japan, I suddenly started to get the feelings that I was getting when I just got here. I am starting to feel a little lonely and a little depressed again, as much as I am kinda having fun and there are people here to hangout with occasionally. The worst part is thinking about winter and the impending cold that follow suit. I kinda get depressed especially after teaching my classes and I have absolutely nothing to do afterwards. Then to add to it, I only got 60 % of my pay for September, because in August we didn't work. I luckily paid up all my bills but had to ask my landlord if he could allow me to pay only half of the rent and pay the rest next month...and he was really cool about it.
I went to the English Conversation thingy today with 2 other JETs and we listened the Japanese guy who introduced this thing to us, tell us about his experience in New York the other day. We then did a little karaoke thing, but the words of the song were on paper instead of a screen.

I can't imagine have a bill to pay and having to ask for time to pay it - as a man, I know it must ruff. But guess what...better must come.
praying for a bearable winter... Blessings
