Shiftdown

Welcome to another post of Shiftdown! My place to posion you mind with the usless rants of a demented lunatic about everything, anything, and nothing…

Sorry for the dry spell here on Shiftdown for the last 4 days. I have still been really busy preparing for this trip to Japan thats only 2 days aways now. Theres still so much to do and check. Honestly I thought I would be more prepared for this. But I still have so much left to do. what doesnt help i that someof the stuff I need to  pack I use everyday so I can’t pack it up yet. thats making things a real bitch.  But hopefully I can get things all tied down by tomorrow night and hopefully things go off without a hitch. Expect it to be pretty dry here for the next couple of weeks after thursday. Friday will be dead since in the morning I will be flying out and I won’t get to Chiba until 4:30pm and I probably get to Saitama where i’m staying at 7:00pm. And I’m supposed to be going to a party and ‘ll be jet lagged so theres no way in hell there will be a post Frday and maybe also Saturday.

Even with all this preparation I still feel nothing. It hasnt hit me yet that im going to a different country with different customs and a different language (Which I do not know how to speak or understand). I’m guessing that it will hit me tomorrow or as i’m waiting at Airport Security going through the check point. But as much as this whole trip has cost me theres no turning back. I can’t just say “Nevermind”. I am excited don’t get me wrong. it’s a trip of a lifetime. Hopefully I will get to go back again in time. But I do have to say I have a lot of worries right now. Mainly the language barrier that I face. But its all just the unkown too me. It’s just I have no clue what to expect. And thats what worries me most.

Well I have some more stuff to do so I will try and write more on it later…
