Packing up the House

My lease is up next Saturday, but I am going to Hawaii (yay!) on Tuesday, which means I need to be out of my house in four days. Here is a list of the things that I have done so far:

1. Cleaned half of the fireplace.

2. Put some shirts in a plastic bag.

Yeah, that's it. Plus I am leaving for Chico to go to my sister Katie's graduation tomorrow, and I won't be back till late Saturday. I am screwed.

But at least the Lakers won last night!




What makes me laugh the most about this picture is that Tony Parker actually looks like he is milking his left nipple.

I now know were I am going, but not really

Just checked my email, and found this letter from The Language School:

From: (name of Language School person)

Hello Josh,

Here's the latest information for you;
1.
We got your tentatie (sp) placement;
The name of the school is called Sendai in Satsuma-Sendai City in Kagoshima Prefecture in Kyushu Region.
Sendai is about 30 minutes away by train from Kagoshima City(Capital City in Kagoshima).
Kagoshima itself fases to the East China Sea and the Pacific Ocean and is popular among marine sports lovers.
It is also famous for the steam sand baths in Ibusuki. You should try that, it was real good.
Also what makes me jealous is that it is very close to Okinawa(Japan's Hawaii)!!

2.
Here's the possible training/arrival schedule for you;
June 23-26 Training in Vancouver
June 27 Fly out from Vancouver
June 28 Arrive in Fukuoka Airport in Kyushu Region

Once visa is processed, everything will happen all at once.
Please be prepared.


So I guess I will be spending a year in Satsumasendai, although I have never heard anything about it. It is pretty far from my uncle in Himeji, so I don't know if I am really that pleased with this. But I am glad I am not in a giant city like Toyko, and it is located in the south of Japan, so it shouldn't be too cold there. I will just have to do some more research and figure out what Satsumasendai has to offer.
