    For the first time since I’ve got here I finished studying before passing out. So I spent the time re-organizing my gallery. I separated all my Japan pictures into their own album. I also did some cleanup of my home and www directories. I think I’ll back up the DBs and go to bed.

    Recently I think I’ve been getting good vibes from Haruna, but I’m really not sure. I wonder if she likes me. I also noticed that I have no pictures of her. I’ll see if I can get some. I felt really bad about a girl today in the Ajisai room because she had on the…

    Gallery :: Koyasan I just got back from Koyasan. The site was founded 1,200 years ago by Kobo daishi, the founder of Isoteric Buddhism in Japan. It’s a pretty cool place. It’s older than all the towering 900 year old trees in it. That’s really impressive. I think the ways Buddhism and Cristrianity are similar…
