i'll soon be back,

4:28 AM

but, before i forget what i have been up to, here's a list.
2 weeks in montreal, toronto, and north hatley were spent:
-shopping. i packed two suitcases from japan full of clothing and other crap, and didn't bring a single pair of knickers. idiotic. so the first day was a b-line to buy skivvies.
aside from that, bought lots of food to take back, jeans, pills, herbs, books and magazines.
-eating. indian, greek, middle eastern, italian, vegan, mexican, japanese (i know, its lame), french, and some great home cooking.
-playing. had great dinners and discussions and drinks and parties with people who are lots of fun.
-walking. since i own two (yes, its ridiculous) cars in japan i seldom walk anywhere. walking is nice.
-driving. (and cursing quebec drivers)
-sleeping. in my wondrous bed
-chilling. playing wiiii and watching movies and american tv and reading trash mags. heaven.
-visiting. my future school in toronto, old friends, doctors, hairdresser. new bangs, new ambitions for the future.

well that's a nutshell of it all. i am ok to be going back to japan, though not at all excited about the prospect of returning to work. but i suppose that's what happens when you go away on holiday. even if that holiday is home.
four months left of the job, followed by three weeks in china, then back to canada officially. if the plan ends up going as i am seeing it right now, it will be six months in montreal before moving to toronto for a few years (well, 4- gulp) to go to school. i was worried about toronto, but was happily surprised at its great vibe. i really liked it. and its so close.
