"First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win." - Mahatma Gandhi
The quote is for my dad. It made me feel better, and made me think of him and the discussion we were having earlier.
So, I'm leaving in less than 2 weeks, and I'm oscillating wildly between heart-stopping elation and gibbering terror. I'm happily printing out subway maps and campus maps and figuring out what subway lines I need to get from
Shiogamaguchi, where my apartment is, to
Sakae, wherein is located (so far as I can tell) the
only ATM in the entire city of Nagoya. whee!
Ooh. Found a great site on
things to do while I'm in Nagoya. Cool! Now I have fun things to do on the weekend, and directions to get to them, too.
Anyway, long post with no real content, but what's to be done. Shikata ga nai, no.. motto isogashii wa yo. (translated: There's nothing to be done about it.. I'm totally busy.)
WHOOOOP!
ahem. Message repeats: WHOOOOOOP!! They are pleased to inform me that I am awarded the Freeman-Asia grant to assist me in my study abroad program in Japan. But not half so pleased as I am to accept it, I betcha!
