'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable

Breathe (2AM) - Anna Nalick

The fog going down Mt. Tateyama made things dangerous and beautiful all at once.

Listening: Untitled - The Gazette

Two of the best shows ever created: One Piece and Firefly. 

I'm starting the love Grey's Anatomy as well.

Come on, come on, put your hands into the fire

Into The Fire - Thirteen Senses

How I wish people weren't so self-obsessed. How I wish to run off to some faraway place and start anew.
It's something I feel like I have to prove to myself and the world. I'd rather be forgotten than looked down upon.

Toyama, Japan in May - June 2012. One of the most meaningful two weeks of my life.

Most of the time I can only drown myself in apathy and self-righteousness to avoid the stab your words and expression cause.
Even so, the sting hurts and lingers.

I may not be like you and society's ideal human being, but it doesn't entitle judgement.
I can change only that much.
They say don't do onto others what you wouldn't want done onto yourself. It doesn't work.

When she was just a girl, she expected the world

Paradise - Coldplay

I'm going to live in Japan one day.

I sail above the frozen peaks, deep in cold cathedral caves

Sailboats - Sky Sailing

The scenic lands of Europe are almost magical.

I'll be in Japan for two weeks. I really don't know what to expect there, so I'm just feeling all sorts of emotions.

And right now there's a war between the vanities

Come Home - OneRepublic ft. Sara Bareilles

Still nervous and excited for two weeks in Japan. I'm leaving tomorrow, but I've barely packed. I can't wait to see the place, though.

I passed by Final Theory Test for driving, thank goodness. Now all I have to worry about is my Practical Test. Hopefully I can get my license before university begins. 

Speaking of university, I'm conflicted about signing up for freshmen orientation camps. A part of me knows I should go for the sake of making friends and knowing more about the school, but the rest of me feels like too much of a social disaster. The last camp I'd been too was in Secondary 2 and have gone to extraordinary measures to avoid camps ever since. I don't want to have to spend three days straight putting up with over-enthusiastic people and the pressure to join in. It's all so fake and desperate I can't see myself enjoying it.

On another note, while this may be premature to think about, I'm afraid of letting people down if I don't go to Bangkok in June. It'll be fun, cheap shopping and late nights in the hotel all to ourselves, but I don't know if I'm up to it. Yet.

JAPAN. JAPAN. JAPAN. JAPAN. 

I wonder if Erika and Janice are as nervous as I am.
