Tadaima (I'm back)!

So it has been nearly a year since my last post. I have an almost good reason for it!

First, last year, a couple of days after my last post, my laptop crashed! It was ... unexpected. I spent over a month without a computer, luckily I had picked up an iPhone the day before and was able to communicate with the world. By the time I got the new computer - a small, used notebook at the second hand store - and got an English OS installed (all thanks to my awesome homie Jason) I was in to 2nd semester at Minami Inukai Jr. High and Mutsumi elementary school so I was busy ... and forgot this existed.

I remembered about it during Winter Break but with Jason leaving and Nicki arriving I was busy. Then Nicki helped me to have more fun than I was already, so I forgot again.

I know, it's lame. But on the bright side, I decided to remain in Japan one more year! So I figured I would pick up the blog again!

I have a lot more I can say now. I've become much more accustomed to the overall culture and the pop culture in Japan along with picking up more and more Japanese. I am currently at Mibu Jr. High School and Mibuhigashi Elementary school, which have convinced me that all the kids in this tiny town are awesome. I really love my kids and my job.

The next few posts will cover some of my favorite things in Japan. Things that I've come to love over the past year that I didn't know existed before, things I've come to love more than I did to begin with or things that I'm learning more about! I'm looking forward to keeping this up again!

'Nuff Said,
