Embarrassment
Word of the Day: 塩っぽい
I really need to go over all my diary entries and make sure none of the themes are repeating. I have had some people ask me about that and the thing is, they are not always about what I am writing about, though for some entries they are connected to the content. It is more of a game I play with myself to sort of encourage the study of Japanese or keeping a sort of " Flashcard set " , if you will.

The Girl Who Appeared in My Dreams Before I Ever Met Her
[by mazkaz] I never believed in strange coincidences, and I definitely never believed in destiny. But everything changed the night I saw her—not in real life, but in a dream so vivid it felt like someone had opened a window into another world.

Word of the Day:論文
I think it was a mistake to hug Jessica, I mean she told me about putting a gun to her head. The dumb bitch shouldn't even be having a gun, I mean it is the same reason I don't keep a lighter in the house, nor have candles. I am afraid if I do lose it, I'll be tempted to burn the building down.

I promise I’ll resign
While working on a project with a colleague, we stumbled on a road block, we had to figure out how to deal with a problem, and it seemed we had divergent opinions on the matter. He was the head of the project and ultimately the final person to decide, but this wasn’t in a corporate setting where the word of the boss is final. It was more in a social setting where he needed to get everyone on board with his plan.

The Day I Realized My Family Didn’t See Me
I have always loved my family. They are the people I grew up with, shared meals with, celebrated holidays with, and turned to in times of need—or so I thought. But the truth is, I often felt invisible among them, like my presence didn’t matter, like my thoughts, feelings, and dreams were background noise in a house full of voices.

The Secret Battle I’ve Been Fighting in Silence
I’ve always been the one who smiles, laughs, and tries to keep life light for everyone around me. From the outside, it looked like I had everything under control. Friends, family, even strangers probably thought I was confident, happy, and “put together.” But behind that smile was a secret—a relentless, invisible battle I never wanted anyone to see: anxiety.
