I keep abandoning my updates before I finish them so here goes nothing… haha. Mainly I think it is because I’m too lazy to upload the photos that usually accompany my posts on top of my food tumblr. Unfortunately I’ve totally forgotten the events that have occurred and am a month and a half behind. SORRY! I… [Read more…]
I probably should be studying or doing the mass amounts of reading I have for my classes but instead I’m watching dramas and writing this entry. Oh well there is alway after, right? The day is still young. Sorta. Onward to my recap of the last week. Nothing interesting happened until last Saturday when I hung… [Read more…]
So I started school this week. My schedule is okay actually I hate it. This is my first semester that I’ve been so disappointed in my overall schedule. On Monday my day lasts from 2:45pm to 6pm.

The day after I arrived in Japan, I had orientation for SILS. My host family took me to Waseda so I wasn’t completely lost. Orientation was pretty… [Read more…]
It has been exactly a week sorta, give or take 10 hrs because of the time difference, and lots of things have happened. I don’t really know where to start. In my last entry I worried about getting yen in time, turned out that was a complete waste of time. The money exchange place was… [Read more…]
In 4 hours I have to be at the airport. But I am so wired that I think I’ll stay up. I’m all packed and ready to go. Packing was actually sort of difficult. Since I’m not the typically Japanese size, haha not even close. I packed everything I could think of, since I know I wouldn’t… [Read more…]
