I made this picture almost three years ago. It was the first time I went cycling to Hiratuska, the town south of Atsugi. I made it all the way to the beach. It's so great to look back at the pictures of that time. I was so fresh (and so fat :D) then. Ah, those good old days, that I shared with that first generation of interns. Everything was new, and we did so many crazy things. Who would've thought that life would turn out this way. sigh
Nah, just kidding. Life's still great here. Not much has changed actually. Sometimes I prefer to spend time by myself, and sometimes I like to hang out with the guys. There's one thing I am truly very happy about: I can meet all my old friends again from time to time, and every year that I stay here I make new friends from all kinds of weird places that I can visit later. I really cherish the memories I have of my first and second year in Japan, and all the friends that I made here.
