Tokyo Orientation

This is my last day at the Tokyo Orientation before I ship off to my new home in Takarazuka, Hyogo. The last couple days have been a whirlwind. Traveling here went smoothly, although I suffered a pretty rough bout of exhaustion once I first made it into Tokyo. I went out on Sunday night with another friend in the program and some old friends from our time studying abroad in Japan. We had yakiniku, and then wandered around near the school we went to.

I have been very surprised but also proud how well I remember everything here. It's almost like my memory is a video, as I have absolutely no problem navigating the streets of this city. My Japanese has dramatically improved since my last time here as well, and the ability to communicate and read my surroundings has had a major level-up.

I have several pictures and some short clips that I've taken since I arrived, but it's a little too much for me to sort through now. When I do get around to that, I'll definitely post them on here.
