Preparation underway

Well I finished packing up a big box which I'll ship out today. I've had a good couple of days. My dad's birthday was Saturday and we had a nice dinner with the whole family plus my brother's fiancè, Sarah. My room's pretty messy right now! (As shown in the picture). I only have one Japanese class left (so sad). Then Friday I'll see my brother's band play, which will be fun!

And Paul is coming up soon!

Well, that's about it for now.

Fukui Preparation

I have two weeks left till I go to Japan! I am going through the JET (Japan Exchange and Teaching) Programme to be an English Teacher at Mikata Chugokku (Mikata Middleschool) in Fukui, Japan for 1 year. For info on Fukui go to www.fuku-e.com.

I've been taking Japanese twice a week in Boston and it's been going well. Now I'm packing and trying to get all ready for my trip.

Well, that's it for now. I'm sure there'll be more interesting stuff to say after I get there.
