Hello Again
Don't read if you don't like non-structured poorly-written text.
Today is good. Today I laughed talked and ate more than I have since I've been here. My sleep patterns are now that of a Sri Lankan; as Shiloni put it "today [I] woke up a Sri Lankan". Well, I said, "as far as sleeping patterns go". Things thus far are great! Easy.....NO!! but I live one day at a time and try to conquere something new every day (going to the store, taking a bus, crossing the street, etc...) There are good days and bad ups and downs highs and lows (I like redundencies). I have no valid complaints thus far. As for my appetite i am not sure why it was so low. I attribute some of it to the anti-malarial I am on some to my nerves and the heat. But there was even more lack of want for food than even those reasons can justify. Today I think I am to the point where now those reasons alone can stand for my lack of hunger.
(Here is a mental break for those of you not used to my "spazmatic" writing. Stop....breathe in.........out.......in.....out.....good)
I have become quite addicted to 2 short Sri Lankan soap operas. I dont know if it will be the same once I know what they are saying........a lot of the enjoyment I get out of them is getting to make up what they are saying........Fabulous.
I found yesterday that I do not live alone. No I have a small protector. I call him.......Herman. He is a small yellowish anole. He came down from my ceiling and onto the wall by my kitchen table. At first I thought he was my arch enemy......the centipede........evil creatures they are. After I realized it was a lizzard I was releaved and gave him the name Herman.....why Herman you ask? That is the first name that popped into my head......thus that is his name.

Hi Jodi! I think the blog is a nice idea. I was going to say, I recognise the appetite-reduction phenomena too. Both last year in china, and now here in Japan. I still havn't figured out why, but I'm pretty sure it's normal. Maybe the heat, but probably a lot to do with the food being very different too.
Anyway, I'll send a proper email when I have some time. Take care! james
