Its been two years since my last post. Many things have happened, many changes have occurred: some sad, some bad, some good, some great, some awful etc. But here I want to share a little bit of the latest changes, some achievements and of course some of the failures I have experienced for the past two years.
​
​One thing I can say for sure is that I am about 70% pleased as to where my life is at and as to where I think I am headed. The other 30% is trying to think about what should I do next meaning: should I stay where I am? Or should I try something new? We all go through hardships in life, we all are fighting demons day and night trying to be the very best we can, but it doesn’t matter how hard we try we still fall out short to our own expectations.
I tried many times thinking about coming up with the best way to start writing these past two years in a blog I left for dead. And as they say we can start from the beginning. 2017 was one of my favorite years in teaching, had a great partner new, yet ready to tackle every challenge. The other class members were amazing and little did I know, that other teacher would become my best friend in Osaka. If it wasn’t for him I might be somewhere else in Japan.

In December 2015 I decided to embark myself in one of the most difficult trips of my life: quit smoking. I was able to hold for three months and then gave in once, then quit again and slipped again over and over that year. But I was able to not smoke for several months consequetively (a big major win!). 2017 came by and “tried” to smoke a single cigarette a day (idiotic) couldn’t control it and ended up going back to being a smoker... at least until June.
