Free Money
I heard that a while back people in the US got $300 to help jump start the economy. I was not able to collect since I did not live in the US in 2008.
However, I will be getting $120 from the Japanese government that's to a similar government program. This was quite exciting to know, so I went out and bought some new suits. I guess my consumer confidence is fine, just a little frugle.
This $120 will take time to get delivered to me. It was promised back in the start of 2009 and my prefecture is the last to get its paperwork together. Although I was able to get tax bill from Tsurumi-ku, my "free money" forms never arrived. Once I get that straightened out, it will take maybe until August before I see the money, or as late as November.

Re-Evaluation of Life
Not too long ago I met up with an old aquantence of mine. By stating this person is mearly an aquantence it shows how close our relationship is, but does not show how highly I regard his opinion.
After our conversation at a Starbucks in Roppongi (imagine Manhatten filled with Asians), my view of my life changed. "If I want to do something more than just teach English, how hard will I have to try? Where should I start? And what is this passion thing some people talk abouy?"
Now my goals have changed a bit. I'm now studying harder than ever on my Japanese skill. Next month I will take the Japanese language test. In the near future I will be talking to professors and looking into various Masters programs. I will also be looking for ways to change my career into somethin
g more business oriented.
As my aquantence said, "The more power you have, the easier life becomes."
