Domo Chat  

Priceless Information  

This is Ian's piece of web. See it go. Go, weblog, go! Go travel in Asia. Go study in Tokyo. Go home to Portland. Nah, what the hell. Go, study in Beijing.

Stop. I am a student studying Chinese language in Beijing.

I started this weblog in the Summer of 2002. It keeps following me wherever I go. But, I'm glad to have the company.

Thanks to Clifton for hosting Domodomo. If you need a flash or website designer, you can do no better.

Domoblog - My old Tokyo mobile weblog.

Domo Music - Music I done made. Shockingly presented under the artist name of "Domo Domo."

It Always Comes in Threes

This morning I had toast and wonton soup with my host O-kasan (mother). She had a look on her face that told me shit was going down. O-kasan's been very busy taking care of her sick mother lately in addition to her usual house wiving, part-time jobbing, and her volunteer work (helps the elderly infirmed and also works with children). But O-basan has gotten sicker and she's moving in with the family. This means, there's no room for me. I will have to relocate to a new host family.

I respect their decision. Family is #1. Still, I have invested time with this family and now it is gone. I must face the uncertainty of adjusting to a new host family. Change is so frightening. I've had another top-secret unhappy-personal incident in my life lately, and this has come at a particularly bad time. They say bad things come in threes. My teeth are clenched in anticipation. But, I will do my best to keep a positive attitude.

Fuck, how whiny. How do I get out of this on a strong note? Uhmmm, rock and roll forever!!!
Forgive crappy Japanese romanizations, I never know the right way to do it.
