Why is it that the older I become the faster time seems to fly? I swear in grammar school I would pray for the last day of school....or for Christmas morning....or for my birthday... and no matter how I occupied my time, my favorite days of the year were still so far away and time seemed to be moving at a snail's pace.
Now, I find myself nearing my birthday yet again.... I find myself saying goodbye to another cast....I find myself seeing summer slowly fade away. Living in Japan and seeing people come and go with time is incredibly difficult for me. In the last seven years, I have met some of the most amazing people in my life and now they are all spread out all over the world and I wonder when or if I will ever see them again! If I could build a suburb with houses for all of these people...with a school for all of our kids....with a country club exclusively for all of us where the wine and beer flow freely and conveniently there is an onsen open 24 hours....with a grocery store with all of our favorite American and Japanese treats.... with a Saizeria....and a Taco Bell....and a Hub (for Brian hahha)...and an Oriental Karaoke.... with a train system that takes us anywhere and taxis that are free for the taking and bikes in any color we choose... I think I could safely say that would definitely be my heaven.
I love you all and miss you dearly. Wherever you may be, I hope this blah-g finds you in good health and living a life that makes you truly happy.
Love your crazy karaoke-ing friend, Mandy Malone
