It's getting closer!

So I went to Target yesterday with Jocelyn and spent a lot of money on things I need for this trip. That was not fun.
I'm waiting for one more thing from campmor.com and then I'm ready to figure out my packing. I really like campmor.com. If you are looking for travel stuff, check them out.

Only 18 days left!

Woo Hoo!

Another Link

This is a time/date converter. If you are wondering what time it is in Japan, you can enter in your location, a Japanese location and the time you will be able to convert. Pretty slick. I think it's a 14 hour difference.

So just in case anyone wants more indepth information, I am going to post some links.

UWOSH Japan study abroad information: http://www.uwosh.edu/oie/BJAPN.html
This website is all of the information from Oshkosh, including itinerary.


Japan Information: http://www.jinjapan.org/
Good general information about Japan.

Japan Newspapers: http://newslink.org/nonusajap.html

I'll add more links as I come across them, but this is a start.

Woohoo!

Only a month before Japan! May 17th I'll be departing. This Blog is for my family, friends and co-workers to read while I'm gone, if they are so inclined, to keep up on what's happening the two weeks I'll be gone. I'm not sure how up to date I'll be able to keep it, but I'm hoping that I'll be able to post at least every few days to let everyone know what's going on, since it will be easier than trying to email everyone!
