waaaaa!

So it's been a pretty crazy few days just getting used to Heiwadai and not being around everyone in Kameido anymore. After moving in, I unpacked and rested. I was really irritated by one of the people I had to move with, so I was in a bad mood. After e-mailing a few other people, we discovered that a lot of us were unhappy. So on Saturday night, I met up with Vinodh in Kameido. We went to the oden hut that pops up outside of Kameido sometimes. It was pretty yummy, plus the guy working there gave me a discount for being pretty. Hahaha, there's a first. We met up in Anjee's room where Michael was staying since he had a realy bad host family. A little while later Jae called and said he was coming over with So-ky, who also disliked his new dorm. So an hour or so later, viola! mini D class reunion.


Not everything turned out great that night since some people wanted to drink and some people didn't and there were only 2 rooms for 5 extra guests. It was actually not a good way to end terms with everyone since people were going off to Kyoto, but we got it all settled, and I think we're all okay.

Sunday was spent going to the Nerima-ku office to switch my alien registration card and insurance. Then I went to Shinjuku where I proceeded to buy a new shower curtain and gawk at how expensive bedding is. (I have yet to get sheets and a comforter.) Afterwards, I went to Nakanosakaue to see off Kazue, along with a bunch of other people from JLI. So tiring, but fun. =)

Today was the orientation and placement for Sophia University. I feel like I did well enough and that whatever I get will actually reflect my abilities, but I'm scared that I'll get put in a beginner class or something. We'll see. It was a lot of technical stuff, so there isn't that much to write, but I did get my ID card, which looks cool and will allow me to get a commuter pass starting October 1st. I need cheaper transportation. Right now, its ridiculous!!!


In scary news, the word on the street is that someone committed suicide in Bldg. 1 of Weekly Mansion Kameido. (We were in Bldg. 2) I don't really know what's going on with that, but it's pretty creepy. Anyway, I'll still miss it there, it was nice. (This is the view from a bridge in the morning. Ah, I'll miss those mornings!)
