Leaving Japan

Well, it's 12:30 and I'm getting up at 5:50 to catch a train. But I want to write down my thoughts before I go to bed. My friend James (who I'm staying with) asked me what it feels like to be leaving Japan. I said it doesn't feel like anything because I can't believe it's really happening. I've become so totally adjusted to this rather bizarre lifestyle that I can't imagine anything else. I have a feeling I'm going to really miss this country when I get home. But, everything comes to an end sooner or later. I'm very glad I was lucky enough to have had the opportunity to do this. I hope I'll be able to settle back in to the comparatively mundane life I'll have when I return to Sydney :)

See you all soon,

James
