Back in pink. I need to clean up after my parents' stay though. I have a one room apartment, and it's a mess after three people living in it for 2 weeks with all their stuff in mid-winter.

Umm, something else interesting...? I weigh 83kg right now. That's 183lbs. I haven't weighed that little since my Freshmen year in HS. I peaked at 215lbs several...

The parental units are still here. We had an whirlwind tour of Kansai (central Japan). They saw more in 4 days than many people see in 4 months! I haven't spent that much continuous time with my parents since middle school though. They were driving me crazy with their bickering!

The Hokkaido snow festival was awesome!

I just picked my parents up tonight and they'll be here for two weeks. I won't be on for awhile because we'll be traveling and, well, do YOU look at naked people with YOUR parents...?

Portland seems like a pretty cool place though, as so many people...

Our Winter Camp went amazing this weekend. 80 of us went snowboarding, onsening (onsen is a hot spring for bathing in Japan), and partied hardy at our giant wood lodge all night Saturday. I feel kind of guilty that I'm so controlling and did almost all of the work and organizing myself. I do a good of delegating most tasks, but I need to delegate...

For anyone out there, I need your recommendations for cities to live.

I'll be returning to the US in July or August to start my career in firefighting/EMT. It's a long shot to secure a job without schooling, so I'll need a couple years to get a degree in fire science. I expect my cash flow to come from bartending and/or alcohol retail or something...

There's just so much damn interesting stuff on the internet! I assume other people have addictions too. Right? I need to unplug that cable if I'm going to get anything done. Of course, I've been telling myself that for ages... (>_<]
