I promise

I'm still here.
Been thinking a lot.
Don't have internet in my new apartment since I moved.
Writing from work causes me to create less well-thought out posts such as the last one.
Made a song last week about which I feel really good.
Love teaching at pre-k and kindergarten.
Decided not to recontract for another year of JET, so I'll be here until August.
Ways of thinking are changing.
Ways of interacting are changing.
Ways of being are changing.
Saw Che in Kobe with Japanese subtitles. Did alright. Liked the movie. Liked the representation of Afro-Cubanos (though I'm no expert on Cuba so I don't know if even that was enough).
Watched part of The Devil's Backbone with Japanese subtitles. Harder.
Watched Abre Los Ojos without subtitles.
Conclusion: Mexican Spanish=good. Man, those Spanish gotta learn to chill out and slow down when they speak.
Making more and more friends and meeting more and more people with whom I can make music.
I want to go to the sand dunes again.
