I learned how to void a check today. And not just any checks, mind, but Japanese checks. Religiously driven as the Japanese tend to be by structure and method, delicate operations must be handled more anally than most. Sorting my trash and throwing it out on the proper day was easier than this. One thing I severely don't miss. I am not a very skilled garbage sorter.

After void one must cut away the signature and take the scrap of paper and dice it very fine. Then place it with the left hand on a tiny stone shrine turned counter clockwise (but NEVER on Tuesday) and burn for exactly 26 seconds eyes closed NANU NANU. Tomorrow I learn how to reissue said ritually anulled checks.

JAM is approaching. I am finding myself more and more able to keep pace. It's always been near impossible to study here, though. We got our costumes today. They're pretty and easy to dance in.
