Great minds discuss ideas; average minds discuss events; small minds discuss people -Eleanor Roosevelt. July 7, 2016. I’m sorry I’ve gone so long without writing a post, I’ve just not been so sure which direction I wanted to go with this new blog since I’ve started it up. I’m nearly a college freshman so I guess this will mostly consist of adventures in college and any lessons I learn so stay tuned. Haha! Currently I am waiting. I am waiting for many things. The second email I’m expecting is from s...

Aka A Year of Trying. Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started Walk-Commuting. July 27, 2016. So, I haven’t mentioned this, but I decided to start walking to work. It’s not overly far – it takes me about an hour and a half door to door, including stops to take over pokemon gyms and streetlights. If I really book it it takes closer to an hour and ten minutes. There were … More Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started Walk-Commuting. Things I Wish I Knew Before I Started Walk-Commuting. 7/14 – 7/24). I realized ...

Das Capital – Washington DC Day 1 – 頑張っている
https://ganbatteiru.wordpress.com/2016/07/11/das-capital-washington-dc-day-1
Aka A Year of Trying. Das Capital – Washington DC Day 1. July 11, 2016. July 11, 2016. I realized I haven’t had a “summer vacation” that hadn’t had some ulterior motive (visit family, language learning, camp, etc.) in a VERY long time. And since I was still in my study abroad money-is-a-minimal-object spending phase, I bought tickets to go visit my good friend Mer in DC! At a safe distance away from the plane, of course. Anyway, with my amazing luck, I got to the airport while the Metro was under constru...

Das Capital – Washington DC Part 2 – 頑張っている
https://ganbatteiru.wordpress.com/2016/07/16/das-capital-washington-dc-part-2
Aka A Year of Trying. Das Capital – Washington DC Part 2. July 16, 2016. July 16, 2016. My second day in DC was much more pleasant that the first temperature-wise, and just as delicious food-wise, so I honestly think it was a success! There were portraits of fat individuals, trans individuals, civil rights leaders, presidents, celebrities… It was the kind of art that was fun to look at because of how people chose (or didn’t choose) to portray themselves and the world around them. That’s especially ...

Business As Usual – 頑張っている
https://ganbatteiru.wordpress.com/2016/07/08/business-as-usual
Aka A Year of Trying. July 8, 2016. July 8, 2016. It was normal. Pokemon Go just came out, so I distracted myself from the thoughts that I would have to block out certain cities from my job hunt, that I would have to leave the country to be safe, about how I could morally condone having kids. I celebrated being published . I bemoaned the lack of wi-fi in my room. Yesterday, everything was normal. Family: Please don’t be black. Reporter: …Six-foot-tall…. Family: Please don’t be black. Please don’t make th...

It’s not overly far – it takes me about an hour and a half door to door, including stops to take over pokemon gyms and streetlights. If I really book it it takes closer to an hour and ten minutes. There’s just a couple of things I wish I had known before I got started. 1 Make a go-bag. 2 Bring a Battery Pack. I have always had the ...

Aka A Year of Trying. Out With A Bang – Bakawari, Kichijoji (and other Izakayas). June 22, 2016. On Monday, everyone who is taking a Japanese class at ICU had their final exam. For a lot of my friends, this meant that they were done for the semester. What to do with our time? Get drunk. So here’s a brief guide to some of the Izakayas I have been to in Tokyo.
