Hello again, everybody! As you can see, I now have the Internet again. I don't have a scanner, but I may be able to work something out with my camera.

Things have been going well here, and the weather is getting nice and warm. I'm living in the countryside, which is nice and relaxing compared to Osaka, where I lived the last time I was in Japan. However, like Osaka, they speak an exciting dialect here! I can understand it, and intend to learn to speak it. Elementary schoolers are fun to teach, because English class is largely supposed to be games combined with vocabulary. Also, I own a car for the first time! And I'm driving on the left side of the road.

I haven't actually been drawing that much either, having been spending a whole lot of time hanging out with the other foreigners here. (Sadly, the Korean-speaking, fanart-drawing foreigner in the region is leaving.) Recently I have been working on a few drawings I plan to complete, though.

I came back to 125 deviations and 125 comments. Most of the comments and favorites were on my Ninja Application, which has been unexpectedly popular, and there were also some on my D. Gray-man comics and drawings. Yay. <3 Also, I have over 10,000 pageviews, and ~szzzt got the kiriban. I actually didn't have a kiriban going, because I just know it would take me forever--it once took me 9 months to finish a picture of Juri I said I'd draw ~completeaccident (sorry)--but after all, 10,000 is a very special number and ~szzzt is my friend. So I now have a retroactive kiriban.

So, uh...how's it going?
