Hi! It’s me! Lily!!!
Jack and Liz are gone. Jack’s in Memphis right now (or just outside), and Liz is in El Paso. They both left early this morning. I was able to say goodbye to both of them, and, well, they’re gone.
I popped over to both places to see how their trip went and if they needed anything, but… it’s time I pulled back a little, I think. That’s why I’m not planning on leaving Japan as much as I could.
I asked Mrs. X if it’s possible to pop into a moving car. She said yes, it’s not nearly as bad as popping out of a plane, but she wouldn’t recommend it. Popping into a plane is possible, but even more difficult than that because the speed difference has to be accounted for somehow… well, no use getting into details. Let’s just say it’s not advised and leave it at that.
So, ummm… that’s that, I guess. Jack should arrive in Toledo tomorrow, Liz should arrive in SoCal, and, well… yeah.
Yuki and I are planning for our trip. She’s actually really happy I’m flying along with them, especially because I don’t have to. We went to the mall today and to the Mart of Walls and a few other places to pick up things we need…. and a few conveniences we’d like that it’s hard to get our hands on in Japan. I have the apartment now, so I popped a bunch of stuff in there and made it a bit homey.
I’m, well… I have very mixed feelings. But I’m looking forward to my time in Japan. They say that we westerners can get tired of it really fast.. and that might be true, but at least I have a bunch of friends to hang out with… and I’m hafu too, so it’s not like I’m a blonde-haired fair-skinned tall girl. I’m a little tall, but that’s about it, most other things about me look Japanese except for my chest and hips. Can’t hide that…
I guess when I speak it’ll be obvious though.
Anyway… Yuki and I are just kind of chilling here, she’s reading a manga I got for her when I popped over (saves shipping) and otherwise… it’s a quiet night. It’s comfortable but neither of us really feels like doing anything exciting. The atmosphere is actually a little… somber.
Oh well. I guess we’ll get our excitement this weekend, such as it is.
Love you all!!! ❤️
From the creator:
Less than a week until all this ends.
I’ll say more as it approaches, but right now, I’ll just say this. I’m glad I’m finishing it in a controlled manner, but I’ll probably mark this as one of the greatest failures of my life.
