Preparation. Preparation. Preparation.

Again, feeling better than I did yesterday. And so does my little laptop. Bless 'im. I suppose what has crept up on me today is the need to get myself organised. I know that I don't leave until June, but preparing myself both emotionally and materially can only be beneficial. This has meant that I've scoured the web for sites on Japan, and it's culture and language; purchased some books on the language (although I need to track down something on the customs) ; have found a fellow blogger who also happens to be a teacher in Japan (on the JET scheme) ; and finally attempt to make some sort of list for items I need to buy.
