Like I mentioned in my last post, I got married!!! However, because of this stupid capitalist system that prioritizes worker productivity over well-being, we didn't have enough leaves saved up to go on a long enough vacation. So, we did something kinda crazy... And quit both our jobs at the same time. I know, I know, it's such a stupid decision to both quit at the same time. But really, if we hadn't done it, when would we ever have had the time to just go travel and enjoy our lives?! I had already consumed all my vacation leaves by going on my wedding and then our hometown reception, and Rap's work as an infirmary doctor did not allow him to take more than a couple days off at a time. So, we quit. And, using some of the money we got as gifts from our wedding, we were able to spend 12 amazing days in Japan. Here's what we did.

Feeling really thankful for having so many people think of me on my birthday Very, very happy.
Yay! Things are finally happening in my life again. Monday For my PE (swimming) we had a diagnostic test to see how many strokes we could swim. The diagnosis was done individually, so most of the period was spent waiting for my turn with the teacher. It was pretty awkward in the beginning, since it was the first meeting in which we would actually get to swim (the previous one was spent on lectures). It was awkward because there were only ten of us in class, all female, but you could tell that we were all shy about our bathing suits and such. When we got into the pool, the water was FREEZING. It probably would have been refreshing if it were a hot summer day, but it was in the middle of November! My classmates and I spent a really long time just huddled together in one corner of the huuuuge pool, shivering and shy. Eventually as more and more people got called on for the diagnostic swim, we broke out of the huddle and got around to practicing our strokes. Here I realized ...
