Talking Through the Night

Clubbing through the night
Dancing, drinking, laughing too
Having too much fun

Not really good friends
But it was a lot of fun
Let's leave it at that

Do I have a crush?
And on more than one person
I don't even know

Oh handsome faces,
How easy I fall for you
It is a problem

Bright lights, chilly winds
Could walk like this forever
Talking through the night

Four hours of sleep
Actually less than that
Still functioning well

A Bowl of Nabe

It went on my lap
And then my purse, scarf, and wall
A bowl of nabe

There are some days when
I don't feel like a human
Should just stay inside

One paper, one class
Don't leave me motivation!
You are still needed!

TIGF:
-Last Tuesday class
-Nicer weather
-Showers
-Finishing one paper
-More flowers blooming

Cake Tabehoudai

Cake tabehoudai
So much food, so delicious
There goes my diet

Knew this would happen
It wasn't intentional
I've seen this before

Still trying my best
But between papers and plans
I am quite tired

At times I notice
How horrible I can be
Trying to change that

TIGF:
-Finishing my last final!
-Having only two more papers left!
-Getting to chat with niji members!
-Bitter Sweets!
-Doing yoga again!

At a Sumo Match

So tired today
I just wanna be healthy
Even bought a charm

Clamor of the crowd
And repeated rituals
At a sumo match

TIGF:
-Not having a weaker body
-Getting to see live sumo!
-Yummy food
-Finishing a paper!

All the Emotions

All the emotions
Swirling through my head right now
Makes me exhausted

Afternoon walking
Leafless trees against the sun
Smiles everywhere

It's been a while
Glad we were able to talk
For such a long time

TIGF:
-Getting one final done!
-Eating at a cute cafe for lunch!
-Getting some work on a paper done!
-The flowers my brother got me!
-Yoyogi park!
-Letting myself relax!

Making Friends, Free Food

Samgyeopsal place
Starting to go there often
Making friends, free food

Final tomorrow
Did not study that much though
Just want vacation

Oh stomach of why
You haven't been doing well
What's up with this month

Though I love it here
I miss my summer bubble
Don't want to grow up

TIGFT:
-Pretty clouds
-Finishing one paper
-Music
-Delicious Korean food
-Free cheese dukbbokki!!!~

It's Been a Long Time

It's been a long time
Since I've written haiku
I've missed doing this

Four months in Japan
I've really done so much here
I don't want to leave

The person I was
The person I'm becoming
There has been a change

Must take a step back
Think about what I'm doing
Caught up in the flow

TITF:
-Semi-decent weather
-Fun English lessons
-Getting lunch and agift from my student
-Getting an A on a paper
-Writing haiku again
-My cute little host brother handing me bread and telling me good luck with my studying!
