Nearing the end

By patsavage

As you can see, the regular updates I once had are now long-gone. For a couple of days after we returned to Kyoto, I had no real excuse, I was just catching up on stuff in Kyoto  – music practice, cleaning my room, applying for things I’ve been meaning to for a while, etc. – while Sawa frantically finished her big translation project. Then on Saturday Kel and his friend Misa arrived, followed by our friend Yuko and her sister, and in various combinations Sawa, Oli, Mum and I did various activities together, including having a barbecue, sightseeing at Fushimi Inari, a beer garden, playing Settlers of Catan, watching the new batman movie and going clubbing in Osaka, while trying to squeeze in a little bit of music practice for my concert on Sunday. I don’t have the photos now, so I think I’ll put up a whole heap next week once my concert is over and Kelly’s gone off to Saitama.

Since at that point all the activities I started while the Doshisha Fellow will have finished, I will do a final update with a final tally of my budget and then officially consider my Fellowship done and wrap up these blog posts. After that, I think I’ll probably give myself a week or so to just be alone with no obligations, then I’ll try to get a job to last me till January. So, until then…
