    I think the rolls are equal. I agree with you. If there is something I can't do physically,then maybe it can be done together.

      I completely agree, and I feel fortunate that Kaz is happy to work with me on physical tasks :)

How to Bring a Cat from Japan to the U.S.: Jojo's Story

Image
The Story of a Ridiculous Idea There were many feral (and stray) cats living around the University of Tsukuba, and the Ichinoya dormitories to the far north of the campus were no exception. There were informal clubs dedicated to feeding the cats, and providing them with makeshift shelters made out of storage bins to host them and their inevitable kittens. Therefore, the cats living near Ichinoya in 2013 were very fat and happy. With the exception of one. She was a scrawny, short-haired mackerel tabby. While the feral cats had their food brought to them, she did not, and resorted to meowing at the doors of the lower-level balconies until one would come out and share some rice and salmon from their onigiri . April 27, 2013, she meowed at the door of room 34-103. Her life would never be the same. Okay, moving on from the terrible prose, when I came back from Japan, I brought this cute cat with me. However, for many reasons, you can't just walk on a plane wi...

I Met Kazzy's Parents! [Important Note at Beginning]

Image
Note: I think now is the time to say that Kaz's mother is Chinese, meaning he is technically hafu (Japanese term for someone who is half-Japanese.) H e was never bullied or treated differently because of it, as it is hard to tell he is hafu . He was raised solely by his Japanese father and grandmother. We know roughly the same amount of Mandarin (like 5 words on a good day.) Therefore, I always think of him as just Japanese. I am deeply sorry if anyone felt misled. However, these are important personal details of Kaz's life, and I do not feel like I have the right to freely make reference to them. I plan to continue to refer to him as Japanese. Yes, I could have written this blog without mentioning those facts. However, meeting Kaz's parents in two different cities and certain other details would have made little sense without informing you guys. Enjoy! *I've shared a few photos of the trip to Japan on my Instagram , and made three new vlogs on our YouTube chann...

Find Your Love In Japan!

Image
I was fortunate enough to be included in a Find Your Love In Japan video! For those of you who haven't heard of this channel, it is run by a Japanese guy named Nobita who answers questions people have about dating Japanese people, as well as Japanese culture as it pertains to people and dating. He is very motivational, and he has greatly inspired me over the past couple of years. I lost like, thirty minutes of some sleep after we did the interview. Would people think I'm a weeaboo for going by Decchan? Would people call me ugly and question what guy would really date me for anything other than a green card? (Ouch.) Would there be a negative reaction overall? Did I say something insensitive that everyone disagrees with? However, I know it comes with the territory. There will always be people there to call black women terrible names. There will always be people who call people out at the slightest hint of their being "too" into Japanese culture. Most people w...
