And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air,. Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there:. Does that star-spangled banner yet wave.

Tales from the countryside, escapes to the big cities, and travels to foreign lands. I'm Moving to Tokyo! What a surreal past 2 years this has been. From working everyday to hopping over to other continents, and doing everything in between.

PS I should hold a record on the fastest packer / mover. it's ridiculous! I can't thank you all enough for your support!
