Ahhhhhh! Sorry I haven't updated in about a month. I have had my hands full as a part-time retail employee, University's Japanese Club President--training in the new board/setting up a strong board in the first place, Finals, applying to both Fulbright and JET programs, and now am smack dab in the middle of finals week. I meant to update more this semester, but since I am graduating on Saturday, I figured I could put off a better update until then. First of all, let me just say I have had all of these tabs building up on my computer and I thought to put them here. I am not going to make these links look nice right now, as I am technically working on one of 5 papers due by Thursday, and so just bear with me for one more week. Then I will talk about a bunch of pop culture phenomena in Japan and about Graduate School Programs I have been looking at. I'm also still open for requests on posts, so please let me know about anything that interests my few readers.
Again, sorry for the lack of updating this fall, please be patient with me.
