Tickticktick ticking away...

My time here in Japan is very quickly running through my hands like so much sand - it's something that's startling on a number of levels.

I have gotten used to heated toilet seats that come equipped with ways of covering up bathrooming sounds. Yes.

Also Hot Canada Dry Ginger Ale...which has nothing to do with heated toilet seats in unheated bathrooms in the middle of the winter...

It's just that it's gone by so quickly and it feels like I should still have another five or six months left and all of the sudden I don't. I don't know where the time went. I was only making my first centeredish cups in Ceramics last week, right? So WHY was today my last day for trimming and fitting things?! There's so much more I want to do, so much I want to see. And now I don't have the time to do it all. It's a little disheartening.

I just spent an hour sorting through things, packing up what I know won't be worn in the next two weeks and absolutely freaking out every time I hear or think "in the next two weeks ____". It's too fast. Someone put the brakes on and slow this train down becauseIdon'twanttoleave.

I don't.

I want to stay. There's so much adventure to be had here.
