My test is over and done with. It was never important, but it did stress me out and put me under pressure. My Japanese is still crap, but I feel great for 'trying' to study so much. I've never appreciated free time as much until this week. From now until January I'm doing nothing but fun things (oh, and work of course). My desk is now entirely devoted to snowboard magazines, novels and dirty cups (and there might a dirty sock there too, but it's not mine so I'm not touching it). Having free time again feels great.
Going to hot springs after work, or out for a meal before watching a DVD are now guilt-free pleasures and, as I just said, it feels great. I guess it's kind of like being hungry for a while and then really appreciating some food when you finally get it. But in this case the hunger is the studying and the food is the books. Or maybe it's the other way around. Either way, it's a nice philosphy. Feel free to quote me on that.
