Preparation for Home, Shoulder Dislocation

It's strange to think about how I only have a little over 3 months left before I stop teaching overseas for good.  I've already started looking at phone plans, computer parts (I'm planning to buy an actual desktop when I go back home) and apartment prices.  There's things I'm looking forward to going back home and things I don't want to leave here.  It's hard to believe that by the time I get back home I'll be halfway to 31 years old.  I was 26 when I signed up to come over to Japan.  Time is just flying by.

The sakura have started blooming, they're beautiful.  I wish they'd last longer than 2 weeks or so.  It's my last time seeing them here so I'll probably go around and try to take pictures of them around the schools.

Last week I dislocated my shoulder again playing badminton.  I dove for the shuttle and extended my arm too much I guess, and it fell out.  It took around 2.5 hours to get it back in, much longer than the 20-30 minutes it took before.  I couldn't get it back in so I had to look up ways on my phone which led to me pulling on it until it slipped back in.  It's been over 5 years I think since it last slipped out but I don't think I can play things like tennis anymore.  I won't even be able to go at my usual 85% at badminton anymore either.  Getting older sucks.
