Here’s my dormitory diary entry for September.
Training is over and I’m practicing my (admittedly weak) lines!
I’m not very good at line drawing, so I’ve been having to study up!

I watched the leaves on my way to work this morning, fallen from branches and waiting in the wind. They resembled a nice bit of animation and made me think of of Wabi-Sabi, the Japanese aesthetic of impermanence — or maybe it Fūryū? No, Miyabi?! ...

Hello, Sakamoto here.
