Wow! It's been a while since I last posted!!

Obviously, I know that nobody would be reading this yet but still, it's been nearly a month since my last post!!

There's been a lot going on in Japan.  Recenlty, on the 11th of March, Eastern Japan experienced a 9.0 magnitude earthquake.  Also adding to the devestation, a horrific tsunami occurred after the earthquake.  As a result, the nuclear powerplants in Fukushima had exploded, causing radiation levels to rise to dangerous levels. 
So many peoples lives have been taken as a result.  Some still missing, some still alive but left with nothing other than themselves.  As an aftermath, those who have survived this devastation are facing the crisis of shortage of food, water, shelter and medicine. 
After just over 3 weeks since the devestating earthquake, it is still extremely big news here in Japan. 

 I know that, in order to recover these areas, it will take many days, months and years, however; I truly hope that this will be all over soon and that those affected will be able to rebuild their lives and that something will bring them happiness.

My thoughts and condolences go out to those in need in areas of Fukushima, Miyagi and Iwate prefectures.

Busy busy!!

Well, 2nd post.  As this blog is most likely to be about my adventures while in Japan, here goes.
It's been 2 weeks exactly since I've been in Japan and I must say, I am busier than ever!!
I've been to countless castings already within these 2 weeks and it's been so enjoyable, it sure has kept me on my feet though!!

I'm going to take on these jobs with my fullest ability and with the greatest determination that I have.  I'm also going to enjoy my time doing this and let these jobs take me where they will take me. 

I'll take it as it comes. 

I'll be off to Kyoto on my own tomorrow.  Quite nervous about getting around on my own in a city I've hardly explored before.  Although, I feel that you can never really get too lost in Japan.
I guess it will be a fantastic experience. 

I would love to post photos up here soon but unfortunately, I won't be able to for a little while(unless I take them on my smart-phone)since I'll be using an old fashioned disposable camera.  Hopefully someday soon, I'll be able to get a flashy digital camera with all the high-tech options :)

The Beginning

Well, this is my first blog post.  I know that nobody is going to read this...maybe one day someone will look back on this post.  I guess I'll post things like my adventures in life after school, fashion, cooking, daily findings and my random thoughts.  Here I go on my journey, through the nooks and crannies of Japan!!
