Coming to an end
My trip to Japan is quickly coming to an end. I have had an incredible time without a single idle day.
The exchange program ended on Friday last week. Thursday I enjoyed a big party with the "study pal" group at Poole, Friday I partied with Tom, another ex A.I. Soft intern and friend from Canada, and other friends, Saturday I went to a live house event with local bands to see my host brother's band and my host brother's younger brother's band perform.
I spent Sunday packing and after a teary goodbye with my host family, set off for Tokyo on the overnight bus. That has to be one of the most uncomfortable ways in the world to spend eight hours! Tiny seats with no armrests. The gentleman in front reclined his seat until it rested on my knees!
I spent the next few days in Tokyo graciously hosted by my host mum's sister and their family. On Tuesday I cut off my golden locks for a job interview on Wednesday.
Wednesday night I headed for Matsumoto and on Thursday I visited my old office, practiced with my old breakdance crew, and went to a party with some old friends.
Today it's back to Tokyo, then on Monday, back to Canada!!

Yeah, I cut my hair :( I was trying to grow it down to my ankles. Haha. Actually, I wanted to keep it long for a little while longer. I don't have pics of the haircut developed yet, but you'll see the real thing soon enough :)
