a long day
May 5, 2005
Before I went to work this morning, I fed Marcia’s cats and sent out my application for the teaching position in my hometown. Milo, one of Marcia’s cat was following me while I was walking out from her apartment. He is sooooo cute and I felt so bad that I had to leave. I love her cats. I love Zepline, Harper’s parents’ cat, too.
I worked double shifts, and on top of that, I was the only server to take to-go and delivery orders (usually two people), and I was stuck with an annoying customer for a while. The phone kept ringing and foods kept coming out, but I couldn’t pack them….help..help..help.. Yes, I’ve got some help. I am just whining.
I want to go to yoga so bad. It would help my exhaustion for sure. My body is not flexible at all, but I love yoga. I love acupuncture and homeopathic too. ummm, I sound very hippy. I have a cheesey yoga DVD, and I like it…
Going back to my application stuff, I would be very happy if I get the job (teaching international students at the national university) . I am also going to apply many museum jobs in Tokyo.
I realize that my expression became very direct when I write in Japanese. It is all the U.S. education’s fault–haha, I mean a good influence. Also, I am forgetting Kanji/ Chinese character. There are so many…I mean, thousands for real. I am suppposed to have known 3ooo or 5ooo characters to be able to read newspaper. Thank god, word processor. It gives me a list of character when I type Japanese words phenetically, but still there were a few times when I was not sure which character I should choose. Chinese people use only Chinese characters, which is impressive to me.
It was a long day indeed. Harper is excited of his new jeans. I want to get a new levis. My favorite is men’s 517, which Levis stopped making it. sad… Harper just showed his ass from his new super low-cut jeans.
I can sleep in tonight. I had only 4 hour sleep last night. Application didn’t let me go to bed early.
Good night.
