Waiting for Winter

I cannot believe it's December. You know what, it's nearly 28-29C in the daytime here!
Now I know what tropical means.

It's holiday season, I can see christmas decoration and holiday sale everywhere,
but my winter has not come yet!
Not because of the climate but because of finals!
Finally I had 2 exams down, then just one paper to go. Since it assigned due friday, which is final day of the semester, eventually my semester got longest period.
Yet I swear it's fun though! The process of reconfirming my memory and connect, sometimes researching further information is quite meaningful:)
In addition, especially when you marked higher score than you expected, there's no doubt to say you did a great job!

Now, I just finished to write my whole essay and keep feeling writer's high in such a midnight...
Surprisingly, I did write 2953words, that is nearly 16,000 in character! feeling full of accomplishment, but it needed to be revised. well, I'll do it tomorrow. it's quite good to finish the draft one day before the due...I can have some space on my mind.
The paper is all about Okinawans in Hawaii and also mentioned the future, and possibility of whole Okinawan ethnic community in the world, including Okinawa itself.
Since I really helped myself to manage all of the information and analysis with some theories, I would like to share it somewhere...actually it must be here...after it has revised by my instructors.
I guess I will submit the Japanese version as my thesis for my seminar...
References here helps me a lot, and I have many many good curators who guide me a great resources and also fabulous ideas!

There's a lot more things to do in winter...it is actually around the corner.
