今日はアニメを見ながら、泳ぎたいです！
I think I'm losing my Japanese? I don't know. I use it sometimes, but I was just watching this video, and I was completely tuning it out. Kind of sad.
Well, Waking up today... I started out getting up at 4:30 in the morning.. ate breakfast and then the usual thing happened, after about an hour, my body said "this is too soon to be awake," and I fell right back asleep.
I've been studying these flat origami geometric models, and it completely reminds me of studying a language. Back in the olden days, I learned a bit of how to play the cello, and it's similar to that too. It's so interesting to think about what sticks versus what doesn't. My Japanese is still around pretty strong comparatively to other languages that I studied... and I didn't honestly study cello that intensively, but even without playing, there are basics of it that I remember, particularly in reading music sheets.
Well, I just feel like, I'm studying this origami stuff, and as I think I've said before, it's been some 10 years doing origami now, and somehow I still feel like a beginner? It's so stupid. Not everything I do is super beginner level, but if you asked me, if an inexperienced person could pick up a piece of paper and do any of the projects that I've done before, I think the answer is yes.
It's sort of like that: "How long does it take to memorize a poem/song" routine.. then add "in another language" if you wanted.. "and memorize both the foreign and the translation"... yeah it's a lot like that.
If I've been doing origami for 10 years now, that might increase my likelyhood to stay with it over the years.. but I have no idea why I should bother. It's not rebelious that I do origami. I went to school for Asian studies, and I have to ask myself: "What is an Asian studies major supposed to do professionally?" While I watch the rest of society argue with me, and I just don't understand you.
I just wonder if I'm going to find development with where I'm at with these pieces. They are so much fun, and I'm more interested in engineering now more than ever. There's a lot of: "There's only so far you can run, before you find the truth" going on with this one.
I want to study more classical math, but I'm not sure that's really going to happen. Ah well.
皆さん、元気でね！
