It snowed in Nebraska today! *squee!* Sadly I am not there, instead I am still freezing in Japan. As it winds down to being crunchslashfinals time, I become more and more suicidal. I calculated it out: I was in class for 28 hours this week. And we have Friday off.
28 fucking hours. Dear Jesus. You know it's bad when other Japanese students say 'wait,...

I was actually happy that it snowed too, I kinda missed the white stuff. I very well may be losing my mind. 28 hours of class is quite impressive, I wouldn't be able to do that; twelve is enough! Oh, and don't kill yourself over finals, that would make me sad.
Anyone know what happened to Izzy? I saw a post of hers on a thread today and she was grayed out. And being lame, I can't seem to find the archive/unarchive thread on the boards anywhere. Too bad, since she was waiting for her second set to be posted.

omg new Fractal set!!
I'm stressed and my body is telling me by causing my piercings to flare up. Yuck. Soon, the canker sores will appear.
It's all downhill from here, really. All I have left are my gigantic presentations (including a group one for business class that stresses me out more than anything - I'm not good at being a team player) and then...

Post-post-vacation update:
In our hostel in Hiroshima, there were bedbugs.
From the tits up (including arms but not actual boobies) I look like I have chicken pox, sans my face. But my back (thankfully none on my tattoo - maybe they tried and said 'hey, inkstained blood tastes gross'), arms, and neck are covered with bites. The ironic thing is though they itch like hell,...

Post-vacation update! So we had our akiyasumi or fall break last week. I hit up Kyoto, Nara, Himeji Castle, and Hiroshima. Wow! I'm exhausted. I took approximately 400-500 pictures. My travel buddy, Rachel, probably took closer to 1000. It's ridiculous. My favorite thing was probably Himeji Castle, because more or less the whole castle grounds were preserved (most of the castles are JUST the castle,...

Poor persons diet? That's ramen noodles! When I think Japan, I think ramen noodles everywhere!

I wish so much I could travel somewhere interesting. You're lucky!
Still alive. Japan is still rockin but I'm ready to go home.
Tonight is 6 hours of karaoke and all I can drink in alcohol (which is a lot, mind you, especially compared to these sad Asian drinkers, which is ironic because Japan is a country in which alcohol is pretty much required at social functions).
Here's two things for you. One, go to my...

Oh, I know how a monogamous long-distance relationship is like. 
But the good thing about it is that you get time to think about your relationship and figure out if he's "the one" or not.

Hi guys, still alive. I've been one busy motherfucker and I am exhausted. I've been clubbing, eaten octopus (twice - once in some fried dough ball things that were yummy and once on sushi. It doesn't really taste like too much but is really chewy), drinking a lot, studying even more. We've got midterms tomorrow but I'm not too worried.
Next week...

There's a new India set up and I am so sad I can't look at it. Damn you Japan and your bizarro porn issues.
Classes are classy. Harajuku fucking rocks. Seriously, if you ever go to Japan and you like punky kids (which you should if you're on here) you have to go to Harajuku.
Engrish is the greatest thing ever. Right now I'm wearing...

So you can access your SG blog in Japan but not the photosets? I agree that Engrish is the best thing ever.
Japan is still rockin. Classes have started. Business class is boring as hell, but I have no interest in business no matter how you slice it. My Japanese class is good. We had to take a placement test and I ended up in the class with all my other classmates so all is well. Well, one guy was placed in the class below us, and...

What's up bitches! I'm in Japan!
I'll keep this short cause I already wrote a small novel to mom, a smaller novel on livejournal, and I have yet to mail my boy and I'm fuckin starving and HURTING and tired.
I've been wandering around the Tokyo metro area for 2 days straight and I am exhausted. Yesterday was the campus tour and tour of the...

Again, I am so jealous. It's been a dream of mine to go, since I was a child. Japan and Ireland, someday. Yes. 
Glad you're having such a great time!

Anyway, hello and welcome to this edition of 日本に行く！！ (If you can't read that, you're lame and need Japanese text support. It says 'nihon ni iku' or, I'm going to Japan!)
Who: Yours truly, following closely behind Wallace-san (or Ashley), a short skinny black kid from Chicago, Hanna-san (or Andrew), a tall white kid who's a...
