Before our story begins…

So, blogging about your trip seems to be the thing to do, and I’m told that I have to keep my frienda and family updated on every tiny little detail of my life in Japan. Well, honestly, that’s probably not going to happen, but whatever. In any case, I am planning on keeping a blog, and updating it relatively often. Whether or not this will last beyond the first day, week, or month… who knows.
I’ve said it again and again that it really hasn’t hit me that I’m going to be in Japan for a year, away from my friends and family, and until yesterday, it’s been true. Yesterday, though, we had a going away party, and it hit me quite a bit as everyone slowly trickled out and finally it was just me, alone. It was a bit depressing, really, realizing that in a week, they would all be thousands of miles away.
That said, I am still looking forward to going. I’ve said many times that going to Japan is both awesome and horrible. I know I’m going to have a great time, but I also know I’m going to miss everyone back here in the USA. I’m not nervous or excited, really, but I am a bit depressed, which is problematic because this is the time when I need to be getting things done.
More later (hopefully).
