It's a little bittersweet cos the last time I was here was with Mom. I feel her presence everywhere. My cuz Betty and I had a long-awaited talk about the circumstances around her death. Man, reliving it is still so hard. You would think after all this time, it would be easier. But it was good sharing what happened with Betty. She knew my Mom almost as well as I did. So she knows what it meant to lose her and what a loss it was to me. She truly understands which helps.
Anyways, off to Japan to see my friends. One I haven't seen in 12 years! Funny how this all evolved only 3 weeks ago when my friend Junko emailed me. We only email each other once or twice a year, She mentioned she dreamt about me and wished she can see me. So I decided to make it happen. I've never been to Japan and always wanted to go to Sanrio Land!
