Last week, I had a two hour long zoom meeting talking about all the different things to consider for those leaving the JET programme.
I’ve been thinking a lot about comfort lately. Or more specifically, what we think of as our comfort zone. Lately, I worry my comfort zone seems to be shrinking.
Any kind of journey has joyous highs, but also inevitable lows. This past weekend might have been the low point of my time here in Japan, but I’m not so sure that’s a bad thing.
For the first time in a long time, I woke up in the middle of the night, and for a few sleepy seconds, I had absolutely no idea where I was.
As the Christmas season draws close, in some small way I start to get excited for the holidays. In a much larger way, I start to dread having to buy presents for the people in my life.
Despite just passing the 10 year anniversary it seems like the original version of Bloodborne might be all we get.
A beloved game of my childhood, Phantom Brave, that I finally finished just last year, got a surprising sequel 20 years later.
The start of this year has been pretty slow, so I finally got around to last year’s Persona 3 Reload. I feel like this game has some weird thoughts about gender.
This year, more than others, feels like a bit of a question mark in terms of the games industry. Beyond April, we really don’t have many confirmed releases, and while not unusual, I feel like there’s more things up in the air.
Once again, it’s time to rank my top 10 anime of the year. Unlike last year, I had a bit of a harder time, there seemed to be less surprises this year.
Much like last year, this was another pretty great year for games, far too many to play them all! Of the ones I did get to play, there were a few that really stood out.
What should have been a routine 7-11 run became quite the kerfuffle. I gathered my items, headed to the counter, and as I went to pay, I realized I forgot my wallet.
