They're already playing Christmas tunes in all the stores already. It's hard because Thanksgiving is not celebrated in this country, so once the not-so-important Halloween decorations come down, they go straight to Christmas.
Hearing the Christmas songs makes me think of home.
At this time last year, I was still trying to put together my essay for JET. Thinking of that reminds me of the end of December last year. The very day I received my "receipt of application" confirmation in the mail from JET was the same day I found out that I will be an auntie.
It was a bittersweet moment. On one hand, it was the first step of a long process for a different life, but on the other hand, the same life was going to be changed for the better. Johnathan Coulton's song "You Ruined Everything" kept playing in my mind.
Anyway, it just feels like time is flying.
