Update: Feeling better


Well, what can you do about being in a foul mood except get over it? I guess that's what happenes when you're an SGI buddhist ;P.

I went to a meeting tonight that was a planning meeting slash 'going-away' party for me and David. It was so nice. (1) There were nice things said to us by all the members there, the ones that have known us from lil' babies to those who just started practicing. Strokin the ego. But also, heartfelt words of encouragement and advice--"Don't party too much~!" (2) Cheesecake. (3) Hopefully we rekindled the activities in Loveland as well as reconnected with old members who have fallen by the wayside.

Nestor Torres is coming to the SGI Denver Spanish-language conference next month. I wish I could see him perform. It would be awesome to see him perform in Denver con toda la gente hispanohablante (in Denver with all the Spanish-speaking members). Oh well, wish them a great conference and great YPG. SGI-Denver is making strides...

Interfaith Festival isn't going to happen for Denver YPG. Sadly, there was a mix-up and miscommunication and therefore YPG won't be performing. I wanted to go. I guess YPG here isn't as strong as it is in LA. I will chant so an opportunity like this will not go missed again.

I will be going to Japan during Winter Break. I am excited and anxious at the same moment. Thinking of travelling to see cousins I haven't seen in almost 10 years, I am nervous to see if we are still compatible. I must build confidence in myself, because well, honestly, I've done this before, I shouldn't have any doubt in my ability to mingle and mix and make friends in a foreign country again.

As lazy as today was, I am starting to feel the crunch of the last few days before I go back to Soka. I'm a week from returning. Scary~!
