drift away, drift back

i once compared blogging to keeping a pet fish. if this was a fish, it has died. that is certainly one way to look at it, even if it is a bit fatalistic. let us rather take a broader view and see this thing as a critter that has undergone a metamorphosis and become something that it previously was not. isn't that the only constant, change?

to get you up to speed, here are some things:

• jack, kate, hurley, sun, aaron, and sayid have left the island. wait, thats lost.
• i left the islands in november and after a short search have found myself a job in chicago. re-adjusting has been well, something, but not as mountainous terrain as i thought.
• a few things i like about being stateside: hot showers, fresh fruit, friends
• a few things i miss about majuro: students, speaking marshallese, the ocean, "morneeng!"

i've been trying to explore many things; things like yoga, music thats come out in the past 2 years, and miles and miles of sidewalk.

i think i will be putting up snippets of this and that here over the next period of time until i stop. if you think of anything i should know about, just sing it loud and clear and it will be carried by way of melody to mine ears.
