School Drama

Temple needs to get their act together! They let me sign up for what I thought was a general asian studies class, but it was a capstone class! And they totally kicked me out for people who needed the class to graduate. I spent a good hour after class running up and down the floors figuring out classes, emailing my home school, getting things signed off, etc.

Get this, I picked five classes and only ONE had an opening spot. My school just has to accept this as my humanities or the little vein in my neck that demands order will pop (or I'll be taking a summer classes, or adding a 6th class senior year). I can't have two liberal arts classes right not. I. Will. Die. I must follow the path for the golden honors medallion so I turn back once I'm a successful animator and hold my head up high knowing I made it through it. But if this doesn't work out,  I'll just quit and become a japanese vagabond. :P
The woes of my life with temple!

I've been feeling down as of late and I figured out why. I can't call anybody! Yeah, I could of back home, and I just saw my mom (It's about to be a week since I saw her), but whenever I had a problem, or felt lonely, there was a list of people I could call. Yes, there's texting, but it's not the same. You can't build love on text alone!

And I'm so far removed from friends. I can maybe see them briefly in the morning before school, but there's no guarantee.  *Sigh*
I always said I'd like to live in japan, but I think what I really wanted to say was "I'd really like to live in japan with my family and friends." Or at least be able to make a damn phone call that doesn't cost 30 bucks!

That is all. Sorry to those snowed in in Philly.

  1. You have love no matter how far you are. I know texting and sending emails is not the same as hearing someones voice. We are 16 hrs difference so connecting is going to be tough Mon-Fri. Saturdays and Sundays are gaurentee. I know Temple has not made this experience easy at all. Take a step back and take care of the things you can control and let the rest go. You are in Japan and you and I know, I will move to anywhere you are upon request.

  2. Well you know what the old folks say, time to pull up your big girl panties. You are in Japan, go with the flow and enjoy the experience. You will still achieve the goals you have set for yourself.
    Love you Granny
