I've been watching Miyazaki's "Castle in the Sky"---- the scenery is soo gorgeous, and Pazu is so sweet and cute.


Between Japanese and violin and work and house chores, I hardly have any time to think about anything.


Finding a balance between self control and self-expression. Between attachment and distance. Between naivity and cynicism. The thing that's just right inbetween and that's so hard to reach. I'm usually the extreme of one or the other and then catch myself, only to switch to its opposite extreme.


The more I like someone, the stupider I act. The stupider I act, obviously, the less that someone will like me in return. I can therefore conclude that no one I ever like will like me back.
