“What’s on your mind?” That phrase is seen by millions of
people who use Facebook. Some take is literally, using their wall posts as a
kind of diary. Others use this to make posts that generate a lot of attention
towards them.
Personally, I don’t really like to use the social network
service, but when I do, I usually try to be funny. I rarely post anything
myself. That’s because I find that the times that I feel like posting, what I
would post would be inappropriate for a public wall post. Most people don’t
really want to know what’s on my mind. Only what is going on in my life, if
anything.
So I guess that’s why I’m making this blog post right now. I
know when I started this blog I thought that I would try to be funny, and tell
funny stories as I lived my daily life. I guess now… my feelings have changed.
I guess I just want this to be a place where I can post what’s on my mind,
funny or not.
So what is on my mind right now? Well, I’m about to leave
Sapporo, Japan, in a few days. And, although I didn’t make a lot of friends,
and I really didn’t have a grand adventure, I’ve become quite attached. As the
date of my departure grows closer, my heart grows heavier. The knowledge that I
will be leaving this city, this amazing county, weighs down on me. I say that I’ll
be back, that I’ll return some day, but what if. There are so many
uncertainties, and I can’t help but worry about what’s to come. I also worry
about if I can keep the relationships that I’ve made. I know I’m bad with long
distance relationships of any kind, so I worry about this. Well, I guess I'll just have to wait and see.
