2006 was a really fast year.  It came and went.  If I was to rate it against the rest of my years in Japan, I'd say it was the least memorable. It wasn't bad per se, just not very spectacular. 

Three Things I Learned in 2006

1.  I can't be in a relationship just to be in a relationship (i.e. girlfriends are overated).  I need to feel something.  I want to believe in love.  I want to be in love.  Where is it and how do I get in?

2.  I have a happy life because I have good friends and a good family.

3.  I can't live in Japan forever.
