Rocket Punching His Way Into Your Heart!

Hey guys I finally got a connection at home! Just thought I’d give you all a little update. Otherwise, Japan life is going smoothly so far. I’ve only been here for like, what, 3 weeks now? It feels much longer though. 

Aren't you on JET? I'm on the wait list so I might be going over there if they need me.

I am, yes! I hope you get upgraded! Don’t lose hope, I’ve heard of upgrades happening into December. 

Me, in the middle of the night, as the sounds of Sapporo gently tuck me to sleep: “do werewolves have like fuckin werewolf facebook or something”

I need to get used to posting at optimal times from Japan lol

Hi guys I’m in Sapporo right now for my second orientation. I haven’t been using tumblr much because I’ve been busy and I still don’t have home internet yet. I’m supposed to get connected by the 12th. Tumblr torpedoes the hell out of mobile data, so I’ve been avoiding browsing on it. Anyway the best place to catch me is twitter !

Hope you’ve all been doing well!

Pros about my Japanese apartment: Big, 3 bedrooms, futuristic Japanese toilet with self heating seats and a bidet washlet thing that rinses your butt for you

Cons: My apartment is from the Showa era, circa 1980, so I have to pull and crank like ten levers to get hot water in the bath

Japan Update

Hey guys! I’ve moved into my apartment here in Hokkaido, Japan! I also met my co-workers and stuff. Anyway, I finally got a phone and I’m on my way to getting an internet connection!

Alright, Tokyo orientation is wrapping up. Tomorrow morning I head off to Sapporo and then take a train ride to my assigned city! So far, Japan’s been pretty cool. I wandered around Shinjuku alone, which was really calming, actually. I enjoyed it. 

I also learned I know a lot more Japanese than I thought. I can understand a good amount of what I’m being told, but I don’t have the vocabulary to respond. I’ll get there, though! 

I’m here in Japan now! Hi! 

I’ll be very busy but I just wanted to let everyone know I made it just fine!

Have a nice trip! Be sure to take photos of the flight and of the things you see

Thanks, will do!
