OK, OK, blog reading world. We've had ourselves quite the hiatus, to say the least.
Before I move on to sharing with you stories from Life Post-Japan. I feel compelled to get a few things out of my system. Such as, the following pictures which, for one reason or another (mostly because these photos were taken and given to me by other people, far too many to list), never made it into any previous blogs.
This will be really boring for people who are not interested in seeing snapshots of Melissa+Strangers, or Strangers+Strangers. (However, this may be fascinating to creepy internet types that I don't know. Creepy internet types, please stop feasting your creepy eyes on myself and people I love. I know deep down, you're better than that. Now, get off the internet and go make some real friends. Thank you.)
And with that, I give you the following photographical catagories:

Fabulous Friends
(FYI: That dessert is vegan friendly.)
(I reeeeeally wish I could remember what he said.)
(The guy on the left in this photo makes me laugh again, and again, and again.)
(The KKrew+Satte-Mitsuko/Rachel)
How we do what we do in Japan
(One of these things is not like the others.)
(a lot of sitting on the floor)
(a lot of shoes at the door)
This was the smallest room I have ever stayed in.
It was supposed to be a "double" but our futon couldn't even fit on the floor.
When I reached my arms out, I could almost touch both walls at once.
I guess you get what you pay for, and at 3000en a night in Tokyo,
I'm don't know what we were expecting. It was, an adventure.
(sympathy for the elderly)
(making mochi)
(Derek took this picture of my beloved ketai in its glory days.)
(The view from Satte Shogyo)
Super Students
The day of our last lesson, Kotomi and Ikumi brought me presents that they had made.
I miss these girls so much.
Mmmmmusic
(Muffin)
In Japan
anyone can be a rock star
OK. Now, as a reward to those of you whom have scolled all the way through photos and memories that mean everything to me, and most likely nothing to you. . .
Here is your reward:
Seeing is believing
Even I can still hardly believe it.

Yeah, it sure was mean of me to take all those pictures. I mean, who would want to see a bunch of pictures of us hanging out? *wink*
Alright. . . I'll forgive you if you forgive me, deal?
