I came to Osaka when I was 16 and stayed with a host family for the summer. I couldn't wait to come back. Now I'm 19, in college, in Tokyo. Really feeling the effects of being alone. The kids in the dorm won't talk to me, even when I talk to them. I have to wake up so early to get to school, and it's like an hour commute, and everything's so expensive. Everyone at home is a mess too because one of my friends just past away yesterday. I kinda think I just want a girlfriend or something so that I don't feel so lonely. I could say that I want to go home but really this is the only chance I'm ever going to get to go away for a year. In a year I can become fluent in Japanese, and being home wouldn't be any less lonely or depressing because all my friends are away at college anyway. It's just such a weird feeling. any advice? If you like in Tokyo, I'm desperate enough to just meet up and talk. My japanese isn't very good, but I want to learn, and be out as often as possible.
