I'm back!

So, in the last few weeks, I have been vacationing in San Jose, Las Vegas and my hometown in Alabama. It's always nice to go back home and recharge your batteries.

Me soaking up sun poolside in Las Vegas.
My dad is a school teacher and I was able to visit his classroom and talk to the students about life in Japan. They asked questions about money, living arrangements and food. It was a lot of fun to go back, but I can't say I'm rested. The jet lag has gotten to me and I find myself awake at 4am and ready to sleep by 6pm. I know it'll go away in about a week, but boy is jet lag annoying while it lasts.

I have a few random pictures to upload of things that have happened over the course of last month. In the upcoming weeks, I'll be starting my Japanese II course (online, because rumor has it you practice more speaking in the online course) and I'll be doing some cultural classes offered to us Americans. It sounds cheesy, but I'm going to take advantage of everything I can while I'm living here. Can you believe it has been a year already?
