it's been a long time since i last  posted something on livejournal. I actually thought to stop writing on this blog and make a new blog focusing on my stay in japan but somehow I never managed to do this so here i am again!
well, loads of things happened and my way how i look at certain things changed. i got a more direct person, i tell people what i like and what i don't like. maybe because i'm on my own here and i know that no one is going to do something for me so i have to "fight" for it.

in the meantime when i needed time for myself i cycled around a lot. my daily cycling distance is at least 20 km. last week-end i also cycled with brando and his friend to mt tsukuba and we climbed the mountain by cable car. but next time we're going to hike up the mountain as we saw a hiking track which was parallell to the cable car track.
it's christmas soon but it doesn't feel like vorweihnachtszeit at all. granted, all the big department stores and even some smaller shops erected christmas decoration all over their place and christmas carols are being played everywhere. so how come that i don't feel like chirstmas is coming up...hmm maybe because they started doing these christmas things in early october and i got used to these decorations.
