So I lost like 5500 today and somehow i let it affect me.
SO I was kinda in a bad mood, mopin around, etc...
Didn't do much exercise, just a little stretching in the AM.
Anyway I started to really feel like crap by night time.
So I had the strength to convince myself to go for a jog.
Then I got home and stretched a lot and did a little meditation and now i feel a million times better.
I'm gonna watch a movie and go to sleep :)

dumpster diving in JP
Today I had a great day.
Wakana spent the night.
In the morning we took a walk to Kichijoji station, and walked through inokashira park.
When we got to the station we dumpstered some cardboard to make the bed that i sleep on thicker, because only one piece of cardboard was kinda hard.
We carried the cardboard, and i also dumpstered some disposable chopsticks that are ubiquitous in japan. I took all those back to my apartment, then eventually me and wakana went to ICU (the shcool). She had class, while i signed up for a soccer team with some old friends, played frisbee, and then played catch-ball (throwing a baseball back and 4th). Then I lifted weights, stretched, and did yoga in the ICU gym. After that me and wakana laid in the grass and talked about life and death. Then i took a shower in ICU sports club house, then went to juggling club with wakana. At the same time as juggling club is badminton, and futsal club. So I skipped off from juggling for an hour and playhed futsal, and badminton. Then I escorted wakana to the bus home. Then I went back and played more badminton, then took shower, and rode bike with badminton club to near the train station where we have "nomikai" which is drinking and eating with club-mates. I drank some table dived-bear, and rice and tofu. I rode my dumpstered bike home, and on the way home saw a desk and chair and carpet in a "dumster". I then went back to the dumpster, and turned the desk upside down, put it on top of the rolly-chair, then put the carpet on top of that, and pushed this the aproximately 3km (or 2 miles) home, which took me about an hour. It was kinda loud and ppl looked at me strange, and right outside my apartment is a police station (koban) but i waited till there was no cop looking and pushed it home. I live on the 4th floor so i carried the desk up to the 4th floor, put it in my room (not before the carpet) then went down and got the chair.
Now I am typing this on my borrowed wireless, on my dumpstered desk, sitting in a dumpstered chair on top of dumpstered carpet, still feeling a slight buzz from table dived beer.
I'm gonna do some yoga and go to bed.
Tomorrow I am running 10km, buying organic fruit, and dumpstering more.
This is my room, you can see the window, and i have clothes drying outside.
3 pieces of cardboard, then on top of that i folded a piece of carpet in half to make the bed.
And a blanket that wakana lent me.
The desk, and chair. On top of it i smy laptop, and some mikan oranges.
Also the carpet is dumpstered obviously.

In a manga cafe in tokyo japan
you can use these places basically as hotels. a place to sleep for 20 bucks.
i am scared.
scared of having left things unfinished in cbus, like school, my aunt, a house, my friends.
im scared of living alone in tokyo.
im in this manga hotel thing at 4 in the am and i cant sleep.
i know i have to do this, to stay intokyo, but it is not easy, but i will do it.
i just worry about others, my friends, and family.
i will do my best to stay healthy, and stay in touch with those who i care about.

in Tokyo
I came to Tokyo on short notice.
A friend needed me to be there for them, and here I am.
I originaly bought a ticket for 2 weeks, and would return the day before classes started in CBUS so that I could finish my pre-med for med school.
It l ooks like those plans will be put on hold for a while.
For now I will be getting an apartment in Tokyo and concentrating on a few things.
Helping my friend enjoy life.
Running/Swimming.
Raw vegan food.
learning to juggle.
Poker.
Learning Chemistry so that I can be prepared when I do have the chance to go back to school.
Yoga.
Becoming healthier as a person.
It looks like I will probably be here for several months.
I have almost no clothing (and no cold weather clothing).
I have almost no possessions.
I don't want to be a consumer.
I will be joining an organic food COOP.
I will become even healthier.
I have been running a lot lately, and will likely run the chiba half marathon, (chiba is a prefecture of tokyo area). It is 13.1 miles or 21 kilometers. I hope to do it in 105 minutes or less.
Today I am going to go trail running (basically running in the woods). Or maybe actualy just walking cus my left leg is soar from softball practice. (I kinda joined the ICU softball team). Tomorrow I should be paying my money so I can get an apartment.
Its 11am now and i'm going to go to Gruppe the organic store, and buy some fruit, and then lift weights in the ICU gym. After that I will take a shower and do some laundry in the ICU sports club house, and then go to the trail and exercise.
