Second blog

Hey hey,

It's been exactly ONE week since I last used this website.  In that time, I've worked out how to edit and colour the blog's layout. To be fair, this is a VERY simple website and I bet I won't even have problems uploading pictures... That remains to be seen...

I found out that I was accepted onto the JET programme last Wednesday and have since told my family, closest friends and work. I just hope it wasn't a premature decision on my part as I still have to wait for my visa and certain other bits of paperwork. SHOULD be fine though...

Nothing more to report this week as it's been much like any other. I'm still working on my basic JAPANESE, revising my Spanish for my trip to SPAIN and thinking about what to do with the stuff that stays here when I leave. No way I'm storing my books and clothes in the BASEMENT...

Catch you next time, BYEEE...

My first blog

Testing...Testing...

Okay, as this is my first ever blog, I shall attempt to keep it simple. I hope that this will become the epicentre for my thoughts and discoveries on my life and new experiences.  The catalyst that made me start this venture in the first place was my acceptance onto the JET Programme.  I've only told a handful of people so far but everyone else will find out soon enough :D

I'm not keen on using Facebook so this will be my alternative method of communicating with my friends and family (this and skype so get your webcams out!).

It's gone 9pm on Wednesday 20th April and I feel like there's an awful lot to do before I fly out to Japan. I'm anxious and excited but mostly anxious. If I don't get my paperwork out on time and lose my place, I'm heading out to teach in Spain instead!
If this blogging malarkey works, I shall endeavour to keep it up :) For now, I bid you adieu x
