List 5 things I am thankful for everyday

How I did it: I took a beginners course but mainly studied on my own and tried to use that language in daily life. Of course living in Japan helped tremendously. I will continue studying because I do hope to go back sometime! Read how I did it…
How I did it: I constantly tried out new ways of doing things. When I was having trouble with a class I would think about what they needed and how I could approach things in a different way. I'm by no means an excellent teacher, but I learned a lot in those 15 months. Read how I did it…
How I did it: I think anything I did in Japan would have been worthwhile. But I knew what I wanted to get out of my experience and I did things that helped me get there. Read how I did it…
I made the “right” decision. I stopped something from happening, something I really really wanted. In the long run I would have only hurt myself and everyone else involved. Why do I feel like I made a huge mistake??
I came back in order to do certain things, and so far it’s all been a bust. I need to start working harder in order to accomplish my goals.
1. Getting closer to someone.
2. A phone call about a job.
3. A good workout.
4. Slowly getting things done.
5. Grey’s Anatomy.
