Quick Summary, end

Okay, the rest of the summary...

Fri: Didn't get to post, busy handling email & trying to obtain full list of local Freespot wifi locals. ( IE it turned out loathes G!maps, but there's one I didn't know of before right beside the Book Off. )
Sat.: Got keitai, plus found the groceries.
Sun.: Rained. Gave up and went to Harajuku & the Daiso again. Aside from a pot, I'm set.
Mon.: Today...

1. My mikan are already moldy, dammit...I may not be able to have any, they come in too large a supply -- esp. if they spoil this fast. My apple's still good and is part of tomorrow's breakfast.
2. Got internets today!
3. The two classmates sitting beside me don't really wanna be here. They kept chattering.
4. Overight tomorrow. Will post, with pictures if possible, when I make it back.

Week so Far in Summary...

So...

Good news: I got to Japan safely.
Bad news: Nevermind that I asked ahead about it, I have until Saturday (at best) until I get WiFi in my dorm room. ("1 week to 10 days, July 5th," was what I was told.)

Bright side? Was not supposed to have a fridge. Do.

Anyway, until then, I can use the school`s computer lab, which has Japanese keyboards complete with mystifying placement of punctuation (for those wondering), head to a manga kissa (and pay ~230 yen for 30min), or find one of the three cafes in my ku which has free WiFi.

Still working on that last one.

Anyway. This is my lunch time, so I am going to be brief.

Sat. -- Got here. Unpacked. Noticed a Book Off. Slept.
Sun. -- Finished unpacking. Found a 100Y Store, hit the Book Off and got OP: Pirates of the Grand Line. (Think "extended Q&A.")
Mon. -- Orientation, kinda. Testing. Need to review massive amounts of vocab.
Tues. -- スーパー
Wed.-- ダイソは大好き。 (I adore Daiso.)
Thurs.-- Today! Hope to find one of those kissaten after classes today...

じゃまって!

T-less-than-12-hours...

...and then I go to Japan.

I am Mimosa, and I'm doing a short stint in Tokyo at a language school. I hope to manage to blog my experience -- and may, if this works out, keep blogging once back.

Um...actually, not much to say, 'cept...

I ought to go back to packing.
