Gahh, today was so humid. Pretty relaxed day, though. Not as crazy with the rushing around even though it was still probably just as bad for Yoneno-san. After he took me and Leanne to AU to pay for my charger and for her to cancel a useless service they make people sign up for to get a discount (still kinda a o_0 about that), Yoneno-san took us to ( Read more... )

Yoneno-san just took me to meet some of the teachers and the vice-principal of the junior high I'm teaching in today. Omg....I'm so stupid. Pretty sure I came off as a complete moron. >On the plus side, I think my base school is going to be pretty good. Everyone seemed really nice and friendly even if I was scared out of my mind at seeing nearly ( Read more... )

I am finally in my new home for the year. Yesterday was...long. Didn't get a good night's sleep before waking up to leave the hotel. Either I was too excited to get to Tsu or my biorhythms are still going haywire. I think it was a bit of both. After puttering around for a couple hours (gave up sleep at 5:30) eating breakfast, checking out, going to ( Read more... )

So today is my last day in the awesomely posh hotel. No more free breakfasts. Not that it did me much good today. Was too nervous to eat much. I have about another forty minutes before I depart for the train station. Shinkansen! w00t! Though I'll be spending most of the time on the train rehearsing my self-intro (gyahhh!!) and not enjoying the ( Read more... )

hur hur hur. ^^

Am in five star hotel for free. This is awesome. Had onigiri for dinner and some fruit. Will post pictures when I have more time on the computer. This is so freaking awesome! Still scared out of mind, though. =/

And yay! No jetlag!

One more day!

I have too much luggage.

My room still isn't clean.

There's no time.

I kind of feel like throwing up.

*freaks out*

Waaauuuggh!! *flails* I have a new laptop. It's not particularly shiny and getting all my programs back onto it (many I kinda forgot I had to specifically download...like the ad blocker...and skip screen...and mouse gestures....><) is a bitch but yay! New stuff! Too bad I'm so hopeless with technology. *sigh ( Read more... )

Here I am after graduation (WHOO!) and after a night of reminiscing, emotional send-offs, funny and touching stories (all true, if a bit fuzzy with the details), Rockband, and bubbly alcohol, I wake to the roar of chainsaws right outside my window. At 9:30. TT_TT Life isn't fair. I wanted to sleep iiiiiiiinnn. *whinewhinewhine ( Read more... )

I have an assignment! JET had contacted me recently (two days ago?) about my placement and I am heading off to Mie-ken, Tsu-shi. I've spent a little time looking up the area and found out about some cool little festivals and descriptions of parks that I can't wait to explore. And there's a castle! Thus far I know it's the smallest prefectural ( Read more... )

I GOT INTO JET!
Yeah, I know it's been a week since I got the news, but since I will actually use this in the future, might as well commemorate it here, too. Let the fun times begin. ^^
