nothing to prove

i did it

One of my unspoken goals while in Japan was to read twenty books. For those of you who don't know me well, I usually don’t read for recreation. There just isn't enough time in the day when I am at home. However, being slightly under used in Japan gave me the opportunity to read for enjoyment. It was a nice change of pace and I am glad I reached my goal of twenty. I doubt that there will be time to read as much this upcoming year but it was fun while it lasted.
