 | 08:15 pm - First photo update from Japan~
Ok, so! Finally a post with some photos. Nothing grandeur since I haven't had too much free time, but just a few :D
First up, a quick map of Japan to situate people as to where in Japan I am. Fukuoka, the city where I am currently staying (and doing my training) is in the south, down near S. Korea. Apparently it takes 3 hours by ferry to reach Korea and my trainer goes there a lot. My school in Nagasaki is just a tiny bit more south to Fukuoka;
So last weekend I had some free time and me and the other trainee got some coffee at this cute cafe around noon where we met 2 other English teachers that are in another city but came into Fukuoka for the day to just shop and hang out. We chatted a bit, they saw us looking at our map discussing where to tour and struck up a conversation with us. One had been in Japan for 4 years and another for 3, neither had expected to stay for so long. It seems many people come for a year and end up staying for longer. Then me and my companion headed off to take this tour bus called the Green Bus that loops around to several spots in the city. We stopped at some ruins where apparently in the spring you can go to see cherry blossoms, but now of course there were no blossoms on the trees. We did notice, however, that the seagulls here in Japan are much smaller than those back in N. America, everything here seems to shrink in size, even their seagulls...granted their crows are huge O__o
Here's a photo of myself at the top of the ruins with a view of Fukuoka's skyline, pardon the messy hair, it was quite windy up there.
Then we hopped back on the bus and headed to a shopping centre called Canal City. My companion didn't seem all that impressed with the size itself, but compared to the malls in Ottawa this one blew me away. All the stores blew me away, I didn't even know where to start! So many cute little trinket shops, clothes shops, and yummy restaurants *O* I saw this one store for children that had a little show going on for kids using the Cinnamon Rabbit mascot, so I quickly snapped a photo;
They have Christmas decors up everywhere here. It feels like they're even more enthusiastic about the holidays than we are back in N. America, and Japan's not even a mainly Christian country! I think they really emphasize the commercial side of things more (given that that's kind of the way it is with Christmas everywhere now anyway). All the stores had Christmas songs playing, even the Green Bus was decorated with tinsels and bells inside =^o^=
For the rest of this week it's going to be busy with training, training, training, so I don't know how much sight-seeing I'll be getting, but so far this adventure's starting off pretty good :D I've been having fun eating at different places everyday, the food's delicious *O* I kind of wish I had 4 stomachs like a cow so I can try more things, but one step at a time I guess, lol. Visiting convenience stores after training to grab snacks has become somewhat of a habit now, they just have so much interesting looking food in there!
Sorry for the rushed and totally un-detailed update, I'll try to organize them better later on, but these few days has been kind of crazy. I also really need to charge up my camera's battery so I can take more photos OTL
PS. I met one of my branch school's teachers today, she came into Fukuoka for something and I happened to meet her during training. She's so friendly, gorgeous and enthusiastic!! She looked like a model to me, on top of the fashionable clothes that seems to be the standard wardrobe of 95% of the population here and WOW. I swear, even at the Fukuoka airport I noticed this, it looked more like a stewardess beauty pageant all the ladies looked so stunning, flawless makeup, perfect hair, whatever secret they have I need to get myself in on it. I can't wait to meet the other teachers at my school!

 | 08:59 am - IN JAPAAAAAAAA~N
I MADE IIIIIIIIIIIIIT!!!
:DDDDDDD
I can't believe it!!
I'm hereeeeee!
After more than 24 hours of travelling I'm in Fukuoka!!
I'm in a hotel room for my training period (10 days) and there's another girl with me (she has her own room though) so we have all our basic needs like shampoo and personal showers and all of that, plus free internet :D
Free morning breakfast too *O*
Me and the other girl already went out for a quick supper, it's so surreal seeing the streets I've only seen before on dramas, everyone's so fashionable here, it's insane O__O Everywhere I look there's a cute dress or a pretty shirt, I'm really going to have to curb my urges to shop, or just go window shopping instead because I need to save money AND keep in mind I can't lug that much stuff home afterwards. I like to think I usually dress average in Canada, sometimes a little more formal than necessary but here I feel so...blagh O__O
Already saw a McDonalds and a Subway, lol, I should have taken a photo of the McDonalds to post here, oh well. Tomorrow I have a half day of training then we're free until Monday, so lots of time to do some exploring and take some photos :D
One thing I think I should have brought but didn't think to is a common Japanese phrase book, I have a dictionary but a small phrase book would help. I'll have to look into that once I get to Nagasaki, or maybe one of those electronic dictionary things although I think those can get quite expensive.
Oh my goodness I'm so nervous but excited, this is the country I've heard endless things about since high school and now I'm actually here! On my own...ready to work....first serious job out of university...in a completely foreign country....everyone I see speaks to me in Japanese, apparently I look Japanese, until I give them this blank look. You know I'm really, really glad my native language is English, it's the most popularly spoken language in the world so when signs are bilingual here it's in Japanese and English, so at least I stand some chance of understanding some things. Add to that some tidbits of Kanji that I convert in my head into Chinese and I'm so-so...hopefully that'll at least prevent from getting too lost.
Anyway, expect more to come, these first few weeks/months are going to be a rollercoaster XD

December 2nd, 2009
 | 02:31 pm - Taking flight...to Japan~
2 checked in luggage - packed. 23kg/50lbs each (wtf, that's a craptastic weight limit. Stupid airlines keep pushing down the weight limits. My suitcases can still fit tons more stuff in them but I can't because of the darn weight limit)
1 carry-on luggge - packed. 10kg/22lbs
1 purse - packed to the brim.
1 laptop carrier - packed to the brim.
Flight schedule:
December 3rd - 12:00pm
Take off from Toronto airport
December 4th - 3:05 pm (Japan time...so about 3am in Toronto)
Land in Tokyo Narita airport
December 4th - 5:45pm
Take off from Narita airport
December 4th 7:55pm
Land in Fukuoka airport where I will be having a week's training and then carted off to Nagasaki.
@___@
Let's hope with all of that none of the luggage gets lost, and I don't forget anything important, and I don't get lost, and I don't miss my flight, and none of the flights get delayed...I always get nervous in airports because my overall impression of the workers there from the security to the check-in people is that they're so mean :( Granted they're just following protocol but the protocols are sometimes so dumb, like the limits on the liquids you can/can't bring, the amount, etc., etc. Like when I give them my keys and stuff to go through security I get nervous just knowing I have a little nail clipper on my keychain, because I don't even know if those things are allowed on airlines anymore or not OTL
Considering I've already packed my bags to their full capacity where weight limit on airlines is concerned that means for the year I'm in Japan I either can't buy anything that I'll need to bring back or I'll have to throw things away if I buy new things. Yippy-yay. Or I guess I can always ship things by post before I come back but that's such a hassle...incentive not to buy, buy, buy. You should see all the stuff I have. My mom rented a cargo van to lug all my stuff from Ottawa to her home and we packed it from ceiling to floow with things, it's crazy. Just buy food and maybe a souvenir or two, and only buy things like clothes if I plan to through my old ones out *nodnods*
It's also kind of crappy I only got to stay with my mom for 3 days ;__; I wanted to stay here longer with her, lounge around the house, eat yummy homemade meals, etc., etc. but 3 days is all I get *sniff* And now I might not get to see her for a whole yeeeeeeeear T__T Gotta make sure I email often, post photos *nodnods* At least she has a kitty in the house and my fish now to keep her company somewhat (please don't let the cat eat my fish >__<). Hopefully when I come back from Japan I'll get to stay with her a little longer before I head off to...wherever I plan to head off to next...or she can come visit me in Japan or something :D
Yoshii....Trip Japan 2009/10 HERE I COME!!

 | 09:09 am - Travelling's never as simple as the movies make it seem...
So much to do before going to Japan...so little time to do it all. So much to do AFTER I get to Japan OTL
Gotta set up a cell phone, internet, bank account, work out their public transit system, feel my way out around the city, learn some Japanese so I don't look like a complete moron, find all the good shops and host clubs. I predict a lot of headaches for the first month or so...

November 13th, 2009
 | 10:24 am - Counting down the days
Merf.
I think it's finally beginning to sink in that I'm going to Japan....
I mean I've been going through the motions, sending in the applications, getting my VISA, etc., etc. but I think somewhere in the back of my mind it just hasn't sunk in that I'm going jetting off to a completely different country, on my own, for an entire year most likely. Then a few days ago I got some mail from my school in Nagasaki including some handwritten messages from me soon-to-be co-workers. They're so adorable, lol.
Anyway, even though I'm glad I currently got a job for this month before I head to Japan I really wish this job came around earlier. Like say for September and October, that way I could have saved up some money and then for November headed home to spend time with my mom before I went jet-trotting around the world. Now I only have like...not even a week home with her ;__; And going to Japan it's not like she can come to visit for long weekends or I can go home for holidays OTL

 | 02:42 pm - Judge Judith Sheindlin
Lol, I love watching Judge Judy. There's some real idiots on the show. Also quite educational if you watch and actually think a little instead of just taking everything at face value (ie. learning it's not a good idea to loan people money without a written contract that the person has agreed to pay you back, along with how much he/she is expected to pay each week/month/etc.).
Judge Judy's so no-nonsense it's hilarious, and I love when some moron goes on and think he/she's all too cool and then Judge Judy beats him/her down telling him/her he/she's an idiot. I've seen some of the other courtroom shows on tv but I still like Judy the best XD
Anyone interested in watching some of her cases (they're only about 10minutes long each) here's a few I recommend (ignore the stupid titles on some of these, clearly the uploaders themselves aren't too bright);

November 5th, 2009
 | 08:31 am - Another random update.
Working in the government I see they're really trying to take the whole H1N1 issue seriously...but amongst most of my friends everyone just takes it as more or less a joke. My office here at my new work place has those hand sanitizer things set up everywhere, and there's a new policy of not shaking hands when we meet someone....we should start bowing like the Japanese.
My tummy's been doing flips for the past few days now, like the flips it does when you're really hungry, except it keeps doing it even if I just ate. And I'm sleep deprived, having to get up at 6:30am but in the habit of going to bed at like...2-3am =__= My mind also can't seem to wrap around the concept that I can eat more than 1 meal a day now that I have some income...albeit the habit it's gotten into of always thinking before buying anything is going to be beneficial to me in the long run I think.
Sighzzors.
Apparently I hear Obama's heading to China in November, and the Copenhagen conference on the environment is in December. Should be interesting. I recently went to a lecture by a Dr. Art Hanson on China and sustainable development. He used to work with some international organization on sustainable development and now deals exclusively with China, so it was a nice little lecture to get some inside scoop. Stephane Dion (former leader of the opposition) was there too, it was really weird. He just walked in so casually and sat at the back, while I was like "O________O...no bodyguards??".
I have a bunch of emails/messages I need to reply to from family, friends, etc., etc. but this week I've been so tired trying to adjust to my new schedule, blargh.

November 3rd, 2009
 | 11:43 am - About time for an update.
So...a month to go before I set sail (or spread wings in this case) for Japaaaaan. Land of the sakura, where the animes lie, and the lolita outfits are calling, and adventures (or misadventures) are sure to be abound. Sent in my VISA application and should have it all set to go by the end of the week.
Oh, yes, and a month before I leave one of my agencies found me another job with Public Service. I swear someone is messing with me. Just as Im about to run out of money they plunk another job on me. It pays pretty good, 7:30am-3:30pm, so I get off earlier (although I have to get up early too, lol). The only...hurdle I guess is that its in an extremely bilingual environment and since my job is receptionist my French is going to need some major brushing up on. Im so rusty since I havent been practicing it for months (and I cant get the keyboard out of French mode hence why certain punctuations are lacking in this post).
Its good to be working again, but I think I got spoiled during my past month or so just staying at home and doing whatever I want. 6am felt way too early to be waking up today. Also, it usually it takes me about 2 weeks before I settle into a new job to the point where I start getting the hang of the routine, responsibilities, expectations, etc. and relax enough so that Im not so stiff with my co-workers. Kind of like when a kid moves to a new school...except within 6 months Ive switched 4 jobs now OTL
This year has been kind of crazy...learned a lot, grew a lot, but still crazy.

October 24th, 2009
 | 09:58 pm - Laundry using shampoo/dishwashing detergent?
Hmm....I have to do my laundry but I'm out of laundry detergent. Seeing as I'll be here only for another month or so (probably less) I think this might be the only laundry run I'm doing so I kind of don't want to buy a whole new box of detergent for it. I've heard of using shampoo or dishwashing detergent instead of laundry detergent, anyone have personal experience? I googled and it seems the answers are quite mixed. Some say flat-out no, others say it's fine so long as you use a little since shampoo/dishwashing detergent tends to get suds-y. Pros and cons anyone?
[EDIT]: Oh, or apparently the best substitute for laundry detergent is to take some plain bar soap, peel some of it with a veggie peeler then dissolve it in some hot water and add it to the laundry?

October 17th, 2009
 | 12:30 pm - Fainting in the shower?
Ok, I just had an odd and kind of scary experience today. I got into the shower around noon, washed my hair and was just starting to shave when my body started feeling nauseated, heavy, tired and then stars popped up in front of my eyes. I thought if I just breathed through it I'd be ok but then before I knew it the stars had taken over my vision and I couldn't see. I stumbled out of the tub without turning off the water and fumbled around trying to find the sink so I could splash some cold water on my face because for some reason I felt it was just too hot and I needed something cold to get the symptoms to go away. It kind of worked as my vision returned enough so I can make out the shape of the door and I opened it and stumbled out and had to kneel outside the bathroom door on the floor for a few minutes catching my breath before my vision fully returned and I felt comfortable enough to rush back in and rinse the shaving cream off before getting out.
The water was on the hot side but not scalding, but my showers are always like that, and even though my usual showers take anywhere from 30minutes to an hour I had been in for about 15min before it all started. I've experienced this once before a few months ago but that time I scrambled out as soon as the tiredness settled in and so I didn't have my vision blurred to such an extent. I looked it up online and apparently fainting or feeling faint in the shower's pretty common, but it's kind of a blow to my pride since I've been someone who, although doesn't go out of her way to stay fit (ie. gyms, eating healthy, etc.) I don't take medication regularly for anything, fairly healthy, rarely gets sick, etc., etc. I always hear about people fainting but I didn't think it'd happen to me.
Admittedly...it was scary. When I couldn't see and I was in the tub and I just knew it was getting worse, but I didn't know whether I could manage to get out of the tub or not. I wanted to cry for someone to come help me but since I was alone in the apartment...(not to mention naked OTL)
The weird thing is now that it's over I almost feel like I might have dreamed up the entire thing. I didn't even get to finish shaving OTL...

October 5th, 2009
 | 02:12 pm - Good grief pt2
Pft, ok, so here's the scoop. I'm currently living in the living of a 1 bedroom apartment with another girl in the bedroom. She's older than me (let's say around early 30's, late 20's), married, etc., etc. Before when I had roommates we always looked for places together, each retreated to our own rooms when we came home, none of us really cooked too regularly, slept at irregular hours, you know, student stuff. Now currently, there's a curtain that half separates my "room" from the dining room and kitchen, but clearly I can hear everything that goes on in there.
So, yesterday, I made that post about how my roommate likes talking on the phone/skype in the dining room when I'm in my room where I can hear every word she (and the other person if she's on skype) says, but that doesn't hinder her from bitching out her husband (who's living in the States and whom she calls every single bloody freaking day then complains he never talks to her) or complaining about friends who come to visit her whom she agrees to host.
This past weekend 2 friends of my roommate's came to visit, a husband and wife. Now, usually, with my old roommates, if we had friends over we'd have them in our room and we'd bunk with them, but given that this was a couple I guess my roommate didn't feel comfortable sleeping in the same room, so she let the couple use her room while she slept on her sofa bed in the dining room. This morning, I had an interview bright and early at 8:00am, so I wanted to get up at around 6am. Last night, due to my having had a nap earlier, I went to bed at about 3am playing around on my laptop. Apparently my roommate didn't like it so much.
I had finished my interview and was back home by about 10am, but because I was in my "room" the curtain blocked it so that when you first enter the apartment you can't see me. My roommate comes back home at around 11am and complains to her friends that "my roommate's (aka me) alarm went off at 6 and woke me up. She was up super late last night making noise (I was typing on a laptop being extra careful not to type quickly to minimize the noise), so annoying". I guess her friends who knew I was in quickly told her I was in my room and she went quiet, afterwards asking if I'd like to have lunch with them. Haha, funny.
It was also really nice the other day when she made dinner and asked me to join her. I agreed (and have since decided no more meals together because it keeps feeling like I owe her when I eat her cooking) and throughout the meal she encouraged me to eat more. Then, the next day, she was in her room on skype and I could hear her through the wall (either the walls are too thin or she talks louder than I thought) complaining to her husband that I apparently eat everything and use everything of her's.
She certainly doesn't act her age. You'd never think she was teaching classes at the university. No, I don't like to cook or clean, stop pressuring me to do it. If you want to clean the house that's your thing, it's not as if I asked you to clean up my "room" too. Clean the rest to your heart's content. I'll clean when I think the house needs cleaning, but don't shove your standards on me. Yes I pay less then you in rent, but you know living in the living room's not easy (especially with a roommate like her), and I pay enough money to deserve some peace and quiet in my room and the goddamn right to SLEEP WHENEVER I DAMN WELL PLEASE. Stop trying to be my mom or older sister or whatever, I like my junk food, yes I know it makes you grow fat but guess what, it tastes good and doesn't require cooking. Yes I like the room messy, it's called my organized chaos.

October 4th, 2009
| 01:14 pm - Good grief
I have never heard anyone complain as much as anyone as my current roommate O_o
Granted none of my previous roommates have made personal phone calls in the same room as me, yelling at their husbands and complaining about friends when I'm just on the other side of a curtain sheet. He's living in the US and goes to a wedding at the invite of a friend and she bitches that he spent too much money on a gift and should instead be saving to buy her a house...because apparently why else would she have married him? Er...o..k? And then when he says it's only polite to go to a wedding with a gift (they were on skype so I could hear both sides) she asks why the hell he went to the wedding in the first place then and that he should have told them he couldn't go because his wife told him he can't. Er...huh?
Now she's on the phone with another friend (let's call her friend "B") bitching about a friend (let's say friend "A") and friend "A's" husband who had come to visit. For the love of god if you have a friend who pisses you off so much that you could complain for hours at a time about to other friends (and a roommate you met like, a month and a half ago) maybe you should look into investing in some new friends. She accepts hosting her friend and her friend's husband visiting and then turns around to bitch about all the trouble her friend being here has brought her, yay.

| 02:04 am - Mass emailing softwares?
I swear this year's purposefully trying my patience.
Anyone know of a free mass emailing software up for download somewhere? I recently needed to email about 50 or so people regarding something and after I tried 3 different email servers I found that;
1) Gmail: won't let you send mass bulk emails because they think it's spam, so you get that "message undeliverable" error email. Then if you persistently try gmail blocks your account for 24 hours and you can't send anything for those 24 hrs.
2) Hotmail: has a 10 people maximum limit on all outgoing emails (meaning you can only send to 10 people at a time maximum). After sending out 2 batches of 10 hotmail also blocked me believing that I was sending spam and therefore violating their terms of service.
3) Yahoo: same as gmail. No mass bulk emails, blockage if you try.
I googled for mass emailing softwares and came up with a bunch, but you have to pay for all of them and given that I don't run a business/organization that requires me to send bulk emails regularly I'd really prefer not to have to pay. Stupid spammers, ruins it for all of us.

September 12th, 2009
 | 08:42 am - Poster printing question
I have a question for people on my f-list that are more knowledgeable about artwork-printing than me.
If I want to draw a poster (say, something like 35cm x 35 or 14in x 20in) in Photoshop what resolution (dpi) and canvas size should I be working in?
Usually if I'm drawing something that I want to print out on a regular sized paper (8.5in x 11in) I'll work in 300dpi on a canvas size of 8in x 10.5in so that when I print it everything's still clean and clear, not fuzzy and crappy after having to enlarge, but given how huge some posters can be I have a feeling artists don't necessarily have to work on a canvas the same size as the poster that they want to print out in the end. Do printing places do some funky maneouvering to enlarge images to poster-size without losing resolution?
Thanks~

| 12:49 am - Country slashing...O_O
This is the first week back to class for my university (or ex-university since I've graduated I guess). All of the clubs at our university were given a booth at this pedestrian walkway on campus to promote our clubs and attract new members, so since I helped out the Chinese Students Association last year with some stuff and had some friends in it, I went to help them out again this year with this event. Right beside our booth was the Russian Students group. My first instinct was to run up to the girls running the Russian booth and scream...;
"OMG I LOVE IVAN SO MUCH!! I'M SO GLAD HIM AND YAO ARE BESIDE EACH OTHER!!"
...until I realized they'd probably have no clue who Ivan or Yao were nor what the hell I'm rambling about. Waaa~y too much Hetalia...my Rochu group I totally blame you.
(For those reading this and thinking "wtf is she talking about", Hetalia's an anime where countries are personified into a person. China's human name is Yao, Russia's is Ivan, and us being the crazy fangirls we are have taken to slashing countries together, this pair being my most favourite pair...SinoSoviet relations FTW).

 | 05:21 pm - Back on the job hunt I go.
So....back on the job hunt trail I go I guess...
This really, really, really, really bites. This entire summer has just been really, really, really, really cursed or something. Everytime I think I can finally breathe a sigh of relief at having everything more or less settled job-wise/financially something else wacks me upside the head and throws it all into turmoil again.
