sad hairy day
I have been to the hair dresser. He did an excellent job and it was the funniest visit to an hairdresser in my whole life. BUT, he did my hair the first time. And he did it different to Hiroko.

The more he cut, the more I looked like before going to Japan.

It was such a bad and sad feeling. I suddenly realised that my time in Japan is flying by way too fast.
Looking in the mirror, seeing me, when I was unexperienced, without having met the people I met in Japan, without having learned some basic rules about the japanese society, without knowing the varieties of japanese food, without being able to tell the difference between two japanese characters, without having one of the best vacations of my life, without having had free shoulder massages at the hair dresser, without trying the best rejected german fake cake, without knowing that friendship still exists across borders, without having been very close to the japanese jail, without feeling the biggest loneliness in my life so far, without having experienced the loveliness of nature and humans,without experiencing illiteracy, without meeting the kindest society in the world, without having seen the most beautiful eyes...

There I sat and my mouth was full of hair and my mind was sad.

In the radio they played today a japanese version of the "army of lovers" song "crucified". Flashback! It´s incredible what influence music has on my mood and life. Actually this song brought me back from the sad mood to the wakuwakudokidoki mood. I love life.
