Welcome back, avid readers!
I've been away for possibly 3-4 months without a single damn post, for which i apologize. I have been out and about and otherwise occupied.
What's happened? I'm still training hard in aikido, but in addition, I have also picked up the practice of rock climbing. That is sweet.

well i was saying that life goes on and all is well. frankly, hitting a week of midterms right after spring break is less than ideal although i think its quite alright, compared to having your friend die upon coming back from a holiday. once in 2001, and again in 2002. sucks. sorry if you have to read this, roof beam high raising girl.

the relative drudgery of bancroft hall life and such i cant even begin to express, coming from that one awesome awesome week. damn. but having settled into something resembling a routine, i'm beginning to put the finishing sayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12078692825685211496noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3821500.post-1078960667450274362004-03-11T07:17:00.000+08:002004-03-11T07:20:52.200+08:00so another week has passed. you know it's such a great feeling when you meet up with/talk to people you knew from years ago, and if they were/are good friends, you pick it up right away sort of from where you left off, almost. it's a sense of being anchored, or remembered almost.

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.
Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the Milky Way,
They stretch'd in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
