It was like a second country to me already…I miss the clean air, the beautiful scenery. Not to mention the politeness of the people. The weird smell of japanese food being cooked(Hah!, I miss Calbee!). The path way’s heading towards the train station. The potato chips…the vendo machines…milk coffee!…the heated toilet seats…the hi-tech-i-ness of akihabara…not the mention the time I went there all alone just to buy an MP3 Player. I think I came back from a graduation ceremony?…took the chance since my fare was being payed by the company hehehe…hey it wasn’t stealing since it was on the way…hehehe…the potpot bicycle…saturday marketing…the combini where I always bought breakfast…the loaf bread and strawberry jam breakfast…the scrambled egg for breakfast…and lunch…and dinner…hahaha….not to mention the fried chicken that lasted a week…with perrins sauce of course…the bi-monthly purchase of 1 sack of rice…the rice cooker…people who could sleep on a moving train…rush hour traffic in the train…business trips to nagano…learning oracle in japanese…ninja village in nagano…walking in the snow covered streets with an umbrella. tokyo disneyland…not really appreciating the rides because they were in Japanese(hah!)…damn, I just miss japan. The culture, the people. the cute way that the girls talked…oh well, that seemed like another lifetime to me…But I enjoyed the oppurtunity. Damn I want to improve my Japanese now.

We are blessed…

No matter how many times I will say this I will never tire of it. Me and Wifey are blessed with the Lord’s Grace’s. For that we are very thankful. I have to admit that I was sort of off the right path. Why? I don’t know, because of the Cross I was carrying? I sort of lost track of my faith and obligations because I prioritized things that shouldn’t be that prioritized. Only then that I realized that if you put your cross in God’s hands, it won’t be as burdensome as it is. So now I try to lead a Christian life. I am happy that I have a good job and that I am now transferring to a better job. That’s all because of God and a couple of cherished relatives. I fear that I won’t be able to handle the job, but I’ll put my trust in God’s plan. Funny because me and wifey we’re always asking ourselves howcome we weren’t as lucky as some people, to think that we never intentionally hurt people or stole from someone. Then here it is. Wifey got accepted in a great company and she’s working with great people. Then I wasn’t accepted in the company I was initially applying for, but it was for the best, because I was accepted in wifey’s company. And from what I’m hearing, it ain’t that easy to be accepted in that short span of time into her company. Not to mention that the position I was accepted in was difficult to get into. If it weren’t for God and the intercession of both our dads, grand uncle’s and aye’s…we couldn’t get where we are now. Then again…this is just the tentative first steps to an even greater adventure.
