Classes

Classes started this past week, and things have gotten really busy. I have Japanese from 9:15-12:30, baseball practice from 12:30-13:30, then on Tue&Fri JapCiv from 13:30 - 15:00
and Approaches to Japanese Society from 15:15-16:45. Seems like I will be having baseball practice on Saturdays and games on Sunday. SO yea, no free time. It makes me really miss Bennington to think about just being able to walk back to my house, relax in front of the fire, and just enjoy a cozy evening with Marie. Here, when I want to go home I have to navigate through crazy busy crowded train stations, do a 45- 1hr commute (on my feet no less) and then walk from the station to my house. Kinda homesick for the green mountains and all that comes with them, not gonna lie. BUT! I will survive. 1 yr is a long time to be away form the people you love nd the places you are familiar with. And I know that I can stick it out and make it. In the process I hope that Japan becomes more familiar, and that when I am home I will be homesick for Japan, and the friends I will leave behind when I go home.
