4 Days Left
I move to Japan in 4 days.
I'm still freaking out and unhappy about it, but I know that's because it's very difficult to just jump into something blindly without a lot of answers. I just need to put everything in its place, if that makes any sense. What's the scariest is that I've never taught, so I cannot even fathom what my new job will be like.
But, this is one giant hurdle. Pretty soon the long plane ride will be over, I will have met people in my new office, I will have an apartment and a bank account and a cell phone, my job will start, and things will fall into a pattern.
Packing sucks, though. I really wish I could have one extra week to veg. I should've quit work a week earlier, but then I would be SUPER broke instead of just mostly broke. Ugh, my hair is falling out MAJORLY today. Maybe it is stress. Or maybe it is diet.
Maybe it's both. Maybe I'm super stressed out and enjoying one last week of bagels and cheese and crappy crap and my body is like "You're going to pay. You're going to go bald." Oh how I long for my thick hair of yesteryear.
