It is not particularly well organised or written, and it is about something that about 98% of you that are friends with me won’t care about, if that little. So if you’re not interested in hearing my opinion about all the DmC hating, please feel free to scroll right on past.       We good?   Okay, so.

This post is mainly for David.   It’s not that I don’t find white guys attractive, but they are very few and far between for me. Actually thinking about it it’s the same for any human being, really. I’m straight but I’m pretty asexual and not very sexually attracted to really anyone. It takes a lot.

I’m surviving, although it’s barely. I don’t think I have ever focused so much on classes in my life, and the stress is really wearing me out.

There’s actually really nothing in Choshi. The area around the hotel I stayed is basically just little gift shops and some (extortionately-priced) restaurants.
