News:
Hey guys (who ever you "guys" are),
So I have some big news....... 1) I'm going to Japan next year!!!! I'm only going for a semester, but that is good enough for me! This hasen't been completely finalized with my father, however, I think he's leaning more towards a yes, so yay! lol I have wanted to go to Japan for the longest time, now my dream will finally be achieved! I'm am studying a lot through Rosetta Stone, Live Mocha, school, and now, with my friends Bayley and Olivia, we are going to study with a native Japanese tutor! I'm so excited. Not only is it cool to speak Japanese, but it's so much fun to learn it. It's such and interesting language. Yesterday, my Japanese buddy, Toshiaki, asked Bayley why she wanted to learn Japanese, and go to Japan. Well, at first it seems like such a simple question that can be answered right away, but no. It's quite strange, in fact, because all we could really say is that we have liked it for a long time, and we are not sure why. Also, it's just plain awesome. With this being said, I have come to realize that there really isn't specific reasons to desperately want to go to Japan, There's something about Japan that, in a way, draws you in. Its quite interesting really.
2) Looks like my dad and Rebecca aren't going to split up. I hope that doesn't change. I love Rebecca and her kids, and I've grown accustomed to them living here. I really hope this works out. I want a normal, good functioning family for once....
3) My birthday was AWESOME!!!! I had so much fun with both family and friends. I adore my gifts, and I'm so very grateful for them and for the love and support that my friends and family give me. Recently I have made a new friend named Jon. Well, his full name is Jonwon Kim (he's freaking asian!!!). The first time I ever saw him was at Akasaka Sushi where he works as both a waiter and a cook; ever since then Sarah, Bayley, Olivia, and I have been going every Saturday. Well, except yesterday (which was a Saturday) which leads me to the next bit of news.
4) Olivia is having some major family problems. She ran away yesterday and we met at Akasaka to take her to my house. Her runaway didn't last very long, however. He father called her and threatened to sell her car, turn off her phone service, and make her pay rent if she didn't come home. These things don't sound very threatening or serious, but it's much worse than it appears. I really worry for Olivia. She's like a sister to me and I don't any harm to come upon her. I wish there was something I can do, but in reality I can't really do anything at all. It's strange though, when her father was threatening her over the phone Olivia put him on speaker so we could hear. Here's my point: Bayley seemed so surprised that a father could say such things, but I just sat there like nothing had ever changed. I guess that I'm so used to it myself that when I see it happen to others, it's just like normal. It's sad that I have to say that. No child should be treated like that.
5) Guess who came to talk to me while I was waiting for animal control outside (I'll explain that later).... Jed. After treating me like he did and sending me all of those awful texts he came out and apologized. I appreciate the apology, but why the sudden change of mind? If he is really being serious, then great, but his trust must be earned. I am one to forgive very easily, but he needs to prove himself to me. I am not going to fall in another one of his traps.
6) Here's the explanation of the animal control thingy: Olivia and I found a duck with an injured leg in my gated community, but Olivia had to leave for a family event or else she would be yelled at again, so she went while I called many a numbers to help this duck. So yeah, there's that.
7) My father is, as we speak, leaving to go on a business trip, so I'll have to write more later so I can say bye to him.
Bye bye! ^^

The Lonely:
2am; where do I begin,
Crying off my face again.
The silent sound of loneliness
Wants to follow me to bed.
I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most.
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.
Dancing slowly in an empty room,
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby.
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again.
Too afraid to go inside
For the pain of one more loveless night.
But the loneliness will stay with me
And hold me til I fall asleep.
I'm a ghost of a girl that I want to be most.
I'm the shell of a girl that I used to know well.
Dancing slowly in an empty room,
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby.
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again.
Broken pieces of
A barely breathing story
Where there once was love
Now there's only me and the lonely.
Dancing slowly in an empty room
Can the lonely take the place of you?
I sing myself a quiet lullaby
Let you go and let the lonely in
To take my heart again.

Do You Remember This?:
Be still, my love. For thou is under a careful eye. All is right. Be not afraid, nor in pain. Merely bask in the light of the spirit whose rays bear utmost comfort.
