new blog!

For a while now I knew that I would have a separate blog set up for my adventures and misadventures in Japan. I set it up about a month ago and now that I`m ready to write my first post, I will announce its existence to the world. It is called JET setter. Although this isn`t a very unique name (especially for those who create blogs for the purpose of documenting their JET Program experience), I know I thought about it long before I ever became a JET so I claim it as my own idea, hehe. ^.^v

I will be importing some old blog entries from here to that blog so that it makes more sense chronologically. I will continue to update this blog with my randomness but that blog will be for JET and Japan related expereinces solely.

 Here`s the link. Enjoy!

pretty date to start a blog

"A rare and beautiful flower for a rare and beautiful girl"
My boyfriend gave me an orchid on another pretty date.
March 15, our Anniversary.

This is my first public blog and I'm starting it on what I call a 'pretty date,' meaning the way certain months and days sound and look on paper are pretty to me. I have a lot of thoughts bouncing around in my head most of the day and I want to get them out and hopefully find others who are like minded to make me feel less crazy, haha!

I'm a big fan of puns and word play so naturally, the title I came up with has something of that quality. 'Amused' would accurately describe how I find humor in most cases, but in a way that only make sense to me. According to dictionary.com 'a muse' is a source of inspiration, a guiding spirit, and poet; things I hope to continue to always be. To be 'mused' is to be absorbed in one's thoughts; engaged in meditation - something that I often am.

Be amused!
