Wow...I'm not even sure where to begin. So sorry I've been away for a few days. Since I arrived in Sapporo, everything has been EXTREMELY hectic. I'm so sorry to everyone who has tried to contact me. I've been without internet and I probably wont have internet for another month, so I'll have to steal free moments while at work. And to my facebook friends, I'm sorry, but the only computer I have access to has blocked the network computer from the site.
I moved into my new apartment, which is actually pretty cool. I'm one of the luckier ALTs (Assistant Language Teachers) who got a fairly nice apartment. A lot of the other places are filled with the previous owners' belongings. And when I say filled, I mean filled with trash from the past three years．Luckily, my predecessor was very organized and left me and lot of instructions to help me out. Unfortunately, along with my internet, I won't have a cell phone for about with my internet, I won't have a cell phone for about another month. I won't have a cell phone for about another month. I have a phone at my apartment, but it's not working! Oh well! Anyway, I hope to be in touch with you all through email and on here. I have yet to get a camera, but I hope to get one soon and then start posting some pictures.
Quick background：
I'm one of two Americans, so it's been kinda cool listening to different accents and teaching each other our own slang．We are all a pretty tight-knit group, especially since we are a bunch of foreigners in a foreign land. There is a girl from the UK, a girl from South Africa and a couple girls from New Zealand. All of them are really funny and laid back. We're all about to go shopping at the ￥100 (the equivalent of a $1 store) to buy some things for our new homes because they all could use a bit of personality.
Well, I gotta go for now.
