November 29th: Moments to Pass the Time

Dear Diary,

Today was a good day. I will keep you really short tonight. I am tired. But I had a lot of fun today. I played all sorts of games with the children today. They taught me tag and leapfrog. They were so distraught when they realized that I didn't have a proper childhood. So we spent all day and the past few years trying to recreate what my childhood should've been like. It was fun trying to be a kid again even though I'm not. I also spent time hunting and gathering food and making clothes. It turns out when we go to towns to sell our things, I am a crowd drawer with my voice. They love hearing me sing. Naoko says that I don't sing from the heart for them, only for my loved ones. And he is right. Why sing from the heart for money if I don't really need it? Well, anyway, diary, It is late and I should be getting some sleep.
