[Mood | Tired & Sick]
I told myself that I would start blogging again and discussing my life here in New York... but it really has failed how I have lacked the dedication to this blog and to this domain. Especially since this domain is up for renewal this May. I don't know if I'll continue on with this blog, or maybe just use blogspot space with the ad. Who knows what the path holds for me. What I do know is that... I really love having my own webspace... I guess I could spare a few extra bucks to keep a domain and the webspace. As long as I continue to update -- right?
Well, it's been about 30 minutes since I tried to upload a video onto YouTube, but it is being so incredibly slow. All I want is for the world to see how cool of a dog Yuki is by way of a video of him howling along to Alan's piano playing. I guess if it doesn't work in the next 10-15 minutes, I'm going to pass out.
It's so weird that I live alone in New York now. A city with so many people, yet I feel so freaking alone sometimes. I wonder how many of the thousands of other people feel this way too.
A few years ago, many people I know were in loving and caring relationships and this year it seems like a lot of that has changed/fallen apart. Ok, so a few couples are still together surprisingly, but the ones I thought would last are not. It's strange to see how the world is changing and what people are doing.
What's even weirder is the fact that I've grown up and moved on. As much as I loved college, it's hard to keep up with everyone back there (especially if they don't answer your emails! *shakes fist). But it's also the problem that I rarely ever get really close to anyone. Right now I'm really glad to have my close-knit set of friends back at home, but I'm really glad to be able to have friends at work. Kelly, Christine, Lisa, Jon, and Thomas have definitely kept me afloat these past few months. Now I have Laurie here and several other people are moving here soon too. It'll be nice to branch out and make new friends.
This week I have been feeling under the weather, and today it caught up with me as I basically lost my voice this morning (hoarse whisper... gross). Right now I have a runny nose and a throat that is dry and always in need of water. I know I have a relatively strong immune system, but I hate being in pain like this. Well, everyone hates being in pain like this unless they're a sadist.
Lately I've been watching a lot of Japanese tv shows. My favorites have been ???????????!! (Gaki no Tsukai ya Arahende!!) It's a variety show featuring some owarai comedy duos (Downtown and Cocorico) and other various guests. Frankly, the shows are HILARIOUS... Japanese humour is so funny.
I've also been watching Taiwan drama, one that I've been completely obsessed with is ?????? (Bull Fighting). The drama itself is pretty awful, but the actor, Mike He is freaking ADORABLE. So now I'm addicted.
I also finished Hana Kimi in one weekend. It was pretty good! I love Oguri Shun so it made the experience really great. There is this half Spanish half Japanese guy in the series too... such light skin with blue eyes -- very rare!
Ok, I don't think this video is ever going to upload onto YouTube, so I'm going to sleep. Nitenite.
