I skipped school today. Since July 2017 until now I have not missed one lesson. Feeling somewhat guilty and refreshing now.

But yes, my priorities has changed. I am now more focused on working more than schooling. I woke up at 7.40am and was so tired to move. However, I would like to continue maintaining my schedule. I find that once I have slacked, I find it less satisfying being alive. I need to be so busy that I find my life fulfilling. Recently I find that if I start to laze around at home doing nothing, somehow I will feel some unknown pressure and my mood will become dull. Maybe it is the "Japan" effect. It is no wonder why the suicide rate is high here.

My sis has been scheduled to leave Japan on 15 Oct and will be starting her work there. Likely she will be leaving Japan on the 13 Oct which means I will have to find a new home before that. Where will my new home be? I am feeling excited and sad at the same time.

I will have to leave lovely Azabu-Juban and I will miss having my sis around with me dearly.
But life goes on and I will...

My sis just informed me that it seems like she will be leaving Japan end Oct instead! Oh my!! hahhaahha

Oh well this just means I get to stay with my sis in Azabu-Juban longer!

In the library now using their WIFI. It's the summer holidays now.

Things has been rather hectic these days. Been working hard at my new company and I am liking the job so far. It is very different from working in IBM, it is really like a retirement job in comparison. I feel relaxed and not stressed at all while working. No OT and no stress. BUT of course, the pay is low. I have no one to feed except myself so there is nothing to worry about.

My Sis is leaving Japan end Oct to HK. With that I need to find a new place to stay, have not yet decided on my place of stay and my pay offered was already inclusive of transport so I need to move to a strategic place to maximize my cash. 

Once I get my work VISA applied, I will then need to quit school. No more need to continue my studies. Studying and working together is really kinda tiring as I have to wake up early. Been drinking coffee to get myself going everyday. I am indeed afraid that once I quit school I will lose my exposure to using Japanese language as I don't use so much Japanese in my workplace. 

The long journey of learning a new language...I wonder when speaking Japanese will come naturally to me. I don't want to go back SG and forgets how to speak. That would be such a waste.

Enjoy life in Japan! I will strive to stay a few more years and hopefully 'implants' the language in me.
