My apologies for my behavior last night. I'm not quite sure what was going on. A lot of it probably had to do with coming back to a community that I felt I was an integral part of only to be an outsider. I kind of have issues that way, kind of like how it irked me to no end in Japan where people are known for their xenophobic tendencies. I eventually got used to it.
As such, I might have said a few insensitive things (although they were minor I definitely could have painted on a better facade) and just been an overall log. Eventually this robotic mask will melt away revealing more human characteristics... granted I don't know when that will happen. Holing up in my room these past 6 months hasn't really helped to make (re)connecting to people any easier. As always, we'll see how things go.
Last night's progress:
Japanese
Completed Pimsleur 18 (or was it 16?)
I did 5 lessons in the car commuting to San Diego yesterday.
PS. I'll have to get around to writing up my dreams and aspirations for my community... unfortunately its tainted by my experience in Japan...
