Made it back home
Just a brief note to say that I am finally back on the internets. I was told suddenly I would have to change schools, so I had to spend long nights organizing materials for the next foreign teacher/ Japanese teachers, clear 4 years worth of stuff off my desk/out of the room, in addition to having to work out an itinerary for my father who was coming the day after classes ended. Then travelling without internets for two weeks, and I just got back last night. I used an old dialup just to get out the Transfriday threads, but that was it for my internet life until last night.
So just to say that I AM indeed alive, and I am trying to catch up on my friends' entries and such. I'm so sorry I haven't been able to comment on all the entries, and I feel so backlogged right now. school starts tomorrow, and I'm nervous moving to a new school. It's huge, which means more work, and it looks like they don't have much in the way of materials.... which means no art classes for at least a month, until I figure out if I'll have the time or energy to go back. I am disappointed...
