i hate it! this morning i woke up at 5 am to finish my homework. had i planned
ahead a bit, i wouldn't have to do this last minute work. i don't understand
why i haven't learned this lesson.

i am one screw (which needs to be drilled out) away from removing the junk
that masquerades as a closet in my room. cleanup will be more work and
reconstruction will be the part which requires thought, but my first home
project has been enjoyable so far.

between the distraction of yesterday and the promise of togetherness tomorrow, i find myself missing Eriko today. because the only device left to me is
patience, i try not to think of her. tonight, however, i hear my yearning.

the first time i met Eriko was in a dream i had. i can't remember if i
chronicled it on this diary or not, but when we finally met in person i told
her about it and she said "that's me." i had another such dream in the last
year, where i was flying a mini helicopter. ever since then, i've wanted to
have my own personal flying machine. i wonder if i will dream of my future
career?

i've decided to fast after Sunday dinner until Monday dinner. it was in some
random self-help book i'm reading. ;) so far, not too bad, although i'm a
little hungry.

if this works, i'm going to make this a regular weekly thing.

Eriko has an interview at the US Embassy. With that, only 3 steps remain for
her to be able to enter the country on a fiancee visa.
