Family Holiday

First of all, sorry for letting my posts get so behind! I think about blogging all the time, but time doesn't allow me to get around to it.

It's never ending and I'm getting a little fed up. But leaving the house messy makes me angry too so I have to do it! But yes, it's a hot summer night. Although the heat is awful, I like nights like this. My apartment is surrounded by rice fields, and it means that there are many, many frogs living in the water.
