I'm having weird dreams these days about flying to Japan, and being rejected at the airport. Somehow I think that's because Japan is so far away from home that I never truly believed I would make it there some day. Now it's only 2 days left until my flight takes off and I still can't really believe it. I'm also terrified something will happen after my 12 hour flight to Japan and they'll send me back home again. Not very likely though... Let's just think happy thoughts, shall we?
I arrive in Tokyo four days before my school starts. The first day I'll meet up with my landlord and he will show me to my room and and give me the keys. Not entirely sure if he will also help me set up a japanese phonenumber and other practical things, but we'll see. I decided not to tick the "yes" box for sheets, blankets and pillows on the room application form since it was so expensive... So I'll have to go look for that stuff on the first day too. If I can't find anything in regular stores, I have in worst case scenario researched on how to get to IKEA, haha! Would it be horrible if I ate meatballs and potatoes on the first day in Tokyo? Probably.
My bags are now as good as packed! A few stuff needs to be added and a shirt or two cleaned but overall I'm finished. All that is left is for my room in Sweden to be turned into a usable spareroom for the rest of my family. I think I will shed a tear or two tomorrow... In my opinion my family is the best family one could ever have, and I will miss them sososo much. For my friends I had a farewell party last Saturday. I think it's hard for us all to imagine not being able to see eachother for an entire year. But even so everyone is very happy for me and the journey I have ahead. And we got Skype for a reason.
If I got time I will write to you before I leave, or during my stop in Moscow. Otherwise once I've settled down in my room in Tokyo. Either way - talk you to you soon!
