Nothing like getting my ego padded by the city hall staff that my Nihongo got jyozu 😊

My iconic quote of the day.
Someone asking me about my Japanese level.
"I can survive reading my rental contract, but it's fucking hell"

I had a dream about going to bed at 8pm and waking up at midnight thinking it was midday.

Actually, I fell asleep at 3am and woke up to the world's noise (and phone notifs) around 9am.

...god. I've got so much going on over the next week.

istg every time I open my feed on this account I see updates about how volatile some entertainment related industry can be.

Any industry that uses one's likeness for products lends itself to being very personal. I've dipped my toes and always left bc it freaked me out, esp when I had a weaker ego.

I have 100% lost a good chunk of weight, and I've noticed I got a fair bit of flub now...

...a quick google tells me that the solution for that is "toning" which I've always known about but didn't realise THAT was its purpose. LMAO

Also the number of times ive been asked how many years ive lived in Japan is both lowkey fanning my ego and also making me wonder where the bar is.

Meanwhile, bc I dont ever flaunt japanese speaking ability, I also get "Wait you can speak Japanese" with genuine surprise.

I've been reminded to never talk about work being quiet when in customer or food service.

Bossman said it'd be quiet on Halloween. I stayed until 3am trying to help catch up on cleaning bc we got SLAMMED.

I have also learned more about Baseball than I ever expected.

Phone call stuff? Ended up fine.

Now instead the thing living rent free in my mind is about how I was like "oh, so-and-so, you're like a topic expert, anywhere you learned this from or just picked up bits and pieces"

The reply: Chat GPT

IM GONNA FKING KRILMYSELF

Phone calls? 🫠
Phone calls in Japanese? 😭

I'm shocked that I understood like 80% without issue, but the doubt and panic got the better of me.

🥳
MY APARTMENT APPLICATION WAS ACCEPTED!!

i need to figure out how to order a chrismas cake now...

I made friends today.

I got a second PT job yesterday.

Here's hoping I hear I got accepted for the apartment I applied for tomorrow!

December will be my time of pure hedonism

I'm looking forward to it

🥴
I'm being forced to reckon with how much I hate asking for people's attention.

I messaged a contact for a job trial and after hearing nothing all weekend, I message and find out the app we're msging on sabotaged me.
And I was sent for a loop on something else bc someone zoned in on smth unrelated
October 20, 2025 at 7:13 AM
Btw, so sorry to newer followers. idk when this acc got +100.
I kind of pop in and out of existence online- or so I feel.
And I do often use this style of social media to write stream of consciousness rambles.

So if you see this, and you're like "who's that acting like it's a facebook wall"- Hi :3c

I feel like "moving forward" stress and "I'm stuck" stress initiate very different reactions.

Like life is full of stress, no avoiding it. I know I'm hella stressed right now, but it's not a "stuck" stress, it's a "moving forward" stress.

Which is nice bc it feels challenging but healthy?

High Context Conversations are hazing me.
Especially when speakers are coming from different backgrounds.

I'm really starting to understand why Japanese social conventions are the way they are. I feel like I'm taking in a lot of sociological knowledge lately.

I've been out of the loop w/ Canadian News, so I checked in on if the NDP announced a leadership race yet.

Rob Ashton feels like he'd be a great leadership figure. Especially if they want to reclaim blue-collar voters who shifted Con bc they fell for the Trump-ian Rhetoric the Cons parroted.

I applied for an apartment.
Wish me luck.
I'm nervous about if I'll be accepted 🫣

Communication is a skill and not everyone is good at it and that's okay even when they are professionals who make their living by being liaisons hahah
Yup. Communication is a skill. Getting a "ok" in response to you asking at least 2 questions is a skill issue but its okay

I need to be mindful and grateful that Osaka hasnt been hit by abysmal weather like Tokyo is rn and Kyoto got during summer.
October 12, 2025 at 5:13 AM
Aight. I got to view an apartment and it's such a nice deal for a long term place...

And Im so tired that it makes thinking about slightly stressful things worse🥲

I slept during the day again yesterday and between being up since 1am (now 2pm) and the HUMIDITY- I wanna melt into a puddle
