Japan, here I come!

So it's official. I'm going to Japan! I finally booked my flight
and am just awaiting the day I leave.

Japan at UCLA

Sakura at UCLA!

With God as my Witness...

I will buy as many awkward Engrish shirts as possible. I will wear them with a sense of pride, bordering mockery. These shirts are just too good to pass up.

It's true, get out of my way.

It feels very impossible!

My secret's exposed!

I knew the Grand Canyon was up to no good...

The Start of it All

The application. Japan has an interesting fascination with requiring more paperwork than anyone in his right mind would care to read. Also, I went through a shitstorm of trouble on every page trying to get the yyyy/mm/dd format right. However, I'm just that much closer to Japan now! 5 months and counting. In english of course, counting in Japanese would take just that much longer.

My picture that better work. I can see my shoulders well enough.
