제트별 (Jet)

Today, I made two very important decisions regarding my future.

I started off by watching the rest of Super Junior Full House. Their goodbyes made me cry. I then looked up the other reality shoes they have done, and decided to work my way through those as well... not that this is one of my important decisions regarding my future.

I'm now on Super Junior Show, which is older than FH. It's a little strange so far, half variety show, half reality. I wish they would stick to reality. I always knew that an idol's life is hard, but even though this was filmed when they were a still a rookie group, their schedules are manic. In one episode, Heechul said he only gets about 2 hours sleep a day, and that's broken up and mostly during travelling. I also heard about a recent idol survey and 40% of the idols had less than an average of 4 hours sleep. How sad is that? I really feel sorry for them for working so hard, but I know that Leeteuk for one hates not being active, so maybe its some kind of idol condition.

Anyway, after I had watched a fair few episodes of SJ show, I found myself on the UK JET website. Its a programme where English teaching assistants are sent over to Japan for a year, and is something I have been seriously considering applying for. They take applications in October and November to leave the following July. I can't apply this year, as I'd miss my sister's wedding. I can't apply next year as I'd miss one of my best friend's wedding. After that, I figure no one else is likely to be getting married, THEREFORE, IMPORTANT DECISION REGARDING MY FUTURE #1 is to apply to JET programme October/November 2014. This why I figure I have more than enough time to 1) learn Japanese and 2) chicken out re-evaluate.

IMPORTANT DECISION REGARDING MY FUTURE #2 came to me randomly and somewhat out of the blue. I want to start using scented candles in my room. You know the big ones, not necessarily Yankee candles but that sort of thing? I quite like the idea of my bed with all the pillows on and a candle gently wafting subtle fragrance around the room. Not that I ever put the pillows on my bed ... nor does my room smell (I hope), but the imagery! I keep seeing missglammorazzi on Youtube with them or talking about them, and I'm nothing if not highly impressionable. So yeah ... candles.
