Hey everyone!
I'm sorry I havent been signing on for a while. I basically gave up on this thing. but hey, who's to blame me.so, rihgt now I feel a little...
off..
frankly I feel like a fucking tool. I've been so caught up in my life, and what I want that I havent weighed the problem that arises when I finally leave for japan. I havent givin a single thought to my parents wishes for me. And while, yes, I have made it clear that I'm not going to live the life they want me to live, its not very fair to lie to them all through college, and then take off to japan, and work in some bar trying to make it. After the money that they've paied for me to go through 4 years in school, its not right for me to give them the middle finger and a giant "FUCK YOU" to my higher education. I want to play music in japan. I want to be Oxy-chan. I want to sit down and spend the rest of my life doing what I do right now.
Transcribing my feelings into words, then strumming my emotions out on my guitar. I like doing that. I'm good at doing it. I deserve to do something I enjoy. but, I really do need to explain to them, that this is my dream. And although I respect them, and thier wishes for me, this is the life I choose. As young as I am, this is the only thing I can concieve possiable for me. But every time I try to explain to them I get nothing but a laugh off. They dont think I'm sierous. and that pisses me off. I can handle you not liking the idea, even hating it, but DO NOT think that I'm not serious when it comes to my future and my money.
I'm worried. I'm freaking out about how in the hell I'm going to manage as a Gaijin in a country that might not take to me. But in my heart, every time I sit down and sing out how I really feel, everytime I sit down and write out those bottled up emotions, I feel the freedom in knowing that this is something that I will always be able to do. I'm never going to stop writing poetry. I'm never going to stop loving music. I'm never going to stop loving japan. so, these things all together only spell one thing for me. And thats the fact that yea, I CAN survive without becomming a big singer in japan. my only question is what could I possibily do if I wasnt? I just feel like, I wouldnt be happy in any other job but this one.
I cant see my self doing anything else.
and I think thats the start to discovering what you really want out of life.
