JET005: Leaving on a jet plane...
ANA to be exact. =P
July 5 to 24...
I've been spending the ENTIRE time preparing. Mostly figuring out the best way to cram a whole load of stuff into a suitcase that's limited to 20kg.
I went shopping for omiyage (souvenirs/presents for co-workers, superiors and extra), new work clothes, indoor shoes (a pair for both schools), make-up and toiletries. I also got a new UK phone because my old one is still 2G and only 3G works in Japan. All that's left to do is get video calling and video messaging working. For some strange reason, it's not working. =.=
I dealt with the insurance, taxes and payment of student loans, plus other finances. I'll be getting my Yen on Friday. Woohoo!
So now, all that's left is to pack and spend time with my family.
My flight is this Saturday (I can't believe time's gone by so quickly!), so I'll have more interesting things to write about now that the move is finally happening.
Next update will be from Japan. (^_______^)
Japan, here I come!! xx
