Overtime?
So I'm looking to move by November, so recently I've been working some crazy overtime to build up some much needed capital. This month I'll work about 50 hours of overtime which'll give me a good chunk of change to put towards a new apartment and possibly a much needed wardrobe overhaul as western fashion pales in comparison to Japanese. When I told Ayuko that I wanted to get some new clothes to fit in better she was like, "ummmm yeah....you definitely need to do that...I'll take you shopping so you get something good. I mean the summer doesn't matter because you just need to stay cool, but in winter.....yeah we'll definitely go shopping." So its always good to know that your belief that the majority of people think you have poor fashion is blatantly confirmed by your Japanese girlfriend. Awesome. Oh and Nova is definitely on the downfall, a bunch of small unprofitable branches, mine included, have been shut down and merged with core big schools. What this means is that Nova's aggressive expansion has backfired and now they are scrambling to post a profit. AWESOME. After I move I am definitely looking for other work and I might be moving to Tokyo with Ayuko in April anyway, so who knows.

i think ayuko just confirmed what we have all been thinking for the past couple of years. we just didnt want to crush your already low self-esteem. now that she has though i'll make sure and point out all of your other downfalls but that could take years. The Shadow
I think you just post things on this blog that you know will get my heart going and you don't have to worry because I'm so far away and can't share my wisdom firsthand. Papa always said "Don't burn your bridges" as in don't quit your job until you have another, so even if you are in a big branch, it's still a job. As for your plans in moving to Tokoyo, I will wait to share my thoughts on that until we talk. Monica and I went into Hollister today and think you should be one of their models- you would fit right in and as one who helped outfit you for this trek, I thought you looked pretty handsome, and altho I am slightly biased, I do have a pretty good fashion sense, even if I am " not very hip"!!! But, the servers at Toddy's party yest had those very skinny jeans and t-shirts- I could find out their source...and then, I can send over the family reunion shirt.
love,
Mom
i agree with mom...just wear the reunion shirt...it can become your trademark...it's really cool chris...seriously it's an awesome shirt
