Why I haven’t been posting much
Monday, November 17th, 2008WARNING: Semi-long post ahead!
Hi guys! So as you all know, I’m going to Japan next year. I leave in April. Because of that, I have resigned from moderating sanriotown forums, blogs, etc. Superbong told me that I can always continue work from Japan since it’s online and all. But then the price of living there and here aren’t the same. Putting up work time for sanriotown will take away time that I can commit to something else. Like looking for a part-time job there (if the scholarship allows me to work).
It’s nothing personal, really. I just can’t afford the price of living there (I calculated that I would need around 85,500 円/month) and I don’t want to be a burden to my parents.
So next question: Why resign now when you can do it next year?
Well, I have 20 units of subjects under me. So that’s 3 of my majors, Bio 11 (which is a major subject in itself), and Hapon 12-13 (Japanese language course). The load is pretty heavy and I’m in school from 7AM (YES, MORNING! NYAAAA) to 5:30PM. Factor in travel time, and I get home at around 6:30-7PM. I need to sleep by 11:00 if I want to get 6 hours of sleep (cause I wake up at 5 everyday). And then eating time, preparing for sleep time, checking emails time–around 2 hours. So that’s 2 hours left for studying.
I still blog, though. At http://tiffy.i.ph/
But it’s not as pesonal as how I used to blog here. I’ll try to give daily short updates on what I have been up to. And I will keep up to date on your lives — because I believe that I’ve made friends here. And not just superficial ones. Ones that will last my lifetime :p
Or, if you don’t want to visit me at tiffy.i.ph, I can always crosspost here :>
