I am at my school. There are only 2 computers hooked up to the Internet here, so I am going to have my home wired on the 16th. Until then, updates will be few and far between.

Sorry I haven't had time to email everybody - it has been a busy couple of days. I didn't really elaborate on the last post much because of time, so here goes:

On Saturday night when our flight was cancelled and there was mass confusion in a group of over 100 JETs, the airline put us up in the Holiday Inn. We ended up having a blast, because there was karaoke in the hotel that night. I will post some more pictures later after I am on my own computer again. Some highlights were our rendition of "Dancing Queen" and "Baby Got Back."

So after partying until midnight, we had to be up at 4:00 to catch the shuttle. Luckily, my roomie Hilda woke me up, or I would have been screwed. Then we were on an airplane for 11 hours.

Tokyo! I am still in awe of that place. Everyone should see it at least once. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves later.

Orientation. So we walked into the middle of orientation, known as "that group whose flight was cancelled." The Keio Plaza hotel rocked. Hilda and I swam in the pool, which also had a great view of the tallest buildings in Tokyo. I can't wait to show the pictures! I didn't get much of a chance to walk around Tokyo, but walking around the Shinjuku area was probably the most fun I've ever had. Everywhere you look, there is something to see. Our last night in Tokyo, I went with a group of people to sing karaoke. We drank and sang and had a great time. Can't wait to do karaoke again!

So then I went with the Nagasaki group to our prefecture. Will post this story later, as I have already written it but it's on my computer.
