yeah, i got back almost a week ago, but haven't had time to
update here. especially seeing as days after returning to the
U.S., my family rushed me off on another trip, this time to
upstate NY. much less exciting than japan!
anyway, japan was AMAZING, and every word synonymous
with it. i loved it, and visiting there makes me want to move
there after college. so i'm looking into japanese classes at
a college near here, for this fall.
i took over 800, possibly 900? pictures there.
i don't like uploading anything to DA; it feels somewhat
more time-consuming than on other sites. i'm still in the
process of resizing + minor edits, but it's coming along.
verrryyy slowly. i've been uploading the pictures to my
flickr account, so if you want to see them, keep checking
in on it! this is where a lot of my photos can be found =]

p.s. those of you who i see 'in real life', you get all the
fun stories and details that i'm too lazy to type out
