so how do you say i'm screwed in japanese?
never fear. i'm not dead. though i was starting to worry there for a bit. especially when my leg swelled up. that was odd and unexpected. but i am much better now.
so anyway. how have i been. broke as a joke being the major situation right now. its actually getting fairly serious. i would have been fine except i did not take into account two details.
1. US Bank is a bunch of assholes and refuse to take me seriously and actually expidite my fucking card like i asked them twice.
2. school books. terribly expensive and kind of nessasary. had to buy at least a few of them.
oops forgot one.
3. transportation to and from school is about 10 bucks a day. i could get a student discount but of course you have to buy in several month increments and i don't have the money to spend all that much to end of saving money.
so a bit of a problem. my card sitll hasn't arived at home. they said it would be there in two days two weeks ago. and my calls just get brushed aside since they assured me that the card will be there even though it isn't. on top of that it will take about a week to send it to me here even after they get it. i've got money for a little over a weeks worth of transportation left if i spend money on nothing else. wich is kind of my only choice. after that i'm not sure what to do. i have no way to access money and no one i can really barrow it from since i dont know anyone here. after i run out of money i wont have a way to school and attendance is kind of nessasary for most of my classes.
so yes even if you are in a fantastical foreign country your life can suck. just for all of you who might not believe that.
other than that classes started. there ok. i have to go and try to get some teachers to let me into their courses. enrolment wasn't so easy as last time. i'm really missing kansai gaidai. i liked their dorms better. i feel like i'm wasting money since i'm really not digging the food their serving for breakfast and dinner here. really strange stuff and most of it tates weird. i miss just being able to cook for myself and not worry about waking up at 6am so i can eat breakfast. i'm also missing the fact that i could walk to school. i have to leave at 7:30 am so i can make it to my 9:15 class. that means waking up at 6:45 every morning. i'm so not digging that. especially since my bedroom is right next to the bathroom and people are in there at every hour of the day. for some reason they really like having loud conversations in there at 2 in the morning. plus the trains are always rush hour packed in the morning. its so crowded you can barely breath. i also miss the japanese classes. the one class i had so far here was nuts. no one is on the same page and the teacher doesn't even really know whats going on. plus the book we're using is just retarded. i've never loved genki so much untill i looked at situational functional japanese.
i really am feeling a bit homesick. i hope i make new friends soon. the pessamistic side of me is having a feild day. sometimes i think i may have pushed my luck to far getting to come back here and now i'm paying for it. its just a lot of crap on top of still trying to get used to a new place and its making me kind of depressed. also i miss everyone from kansai gaidai and their all graduating soon. i really hope i can get the money to go down and see them for graduation. i would really love to do that. they'll all be gone soon and even though i'm not able to see them right now it will still be sad when they've all left the country.
i want to be in a good mood. everything just seems to be conspirering against me. meh. i'm going to bed.
