I suppose this is my first official post to my blog about living abroad in Japan even though I'm still in the states. I'm really more curious to see if I can actually post this or not so I suppose we'll see. I leave for Osaka in two days and all I've been doing today is packing, packing, and more packing. My dad got me some of those vacuum sealed bags and I have to admit they are doing the job as I haven't even filled up one suitcase yet and most of my clothes are already packed. The nice thing about moving so far away is that I'm really only bringing my clothes along, so there isn't the usual hassle of having to pack and move a bunch of random stuff. My only real concern is running out of deodorant over there as apparently they don't use it or don't use what we are used to. I've always thought of the Japanese as clean little robotic workers, so I can't really understand the lack of deordorant, but who knows. Anyway its back to packing or slacking, so you'll have to wait for more updates. Oh and... I miss lp...sad face :(
