tomorrow..
marks 3 years to the day i arrived in japan.
happy anniversary to me.
as i've been meeting up my friends to say goodbye, it hasn't really hit me yet.. i feel as though i'm going on a long vacation, but i'll be back.. except this time.. i won't come back. there are too many things going through my mind right now.. i'll try my best not to cry.. but i'm sure i will.
will update once i get settled back in houston.
my biggest challenge in life so far was moving to japan all by myself and feeling totally alone.
now my biggest challenge is moving back home - where i'll experience being uncomfortable at its best.
let's see how long i survive...
update: it's 4:15am.. while i was in the shower a few minutes ago.. there was an earthquake! thank goodness it wasn't a big one or else i might have had to run out naked.. i bet my neighbors would have remembered me forever. haha

Yes, the Indian man would have seen you and gone, "You really scared me." GYAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!
aww, you must be feeling all sorts of emotions jeannie! well, you should be so proud of yourself, for venturing off for 3 years, learning and seeing all kinds of things! just think of this move back home as yet another new chapter in your life.

aww... i never got to meet you up in Japan!!! at least you will be back home!! we should definitely meet up for lunch one day (after I'm done with my OB-Gyn rotation that is!)
