Michigan Nikki on 18 Apr 2006
I made it safely back to Michigan yesterday, with my plane getting in 20 minutes early. US Customs agents were able to remind me of America’s well known attribute of having incredibly polite people. There were some creative maneuvers done in-between a bunch of JCMUers regarding our luggage and weight and the costs [...]
JCMU Nikki on 16 Apr 2006
Well, classes at JCMU are finally over!!! Today was the closing ceremony, where this semester Dr. Johnson had an actual speech, and the distinguished guests who came had either short boring speeches or longer interesting speeches. That and I actually got a certificate this time around (last semester those of us staying for [...]

Traveling Nikki on 12 Apr 2006
Sunday April 9th was day one of two that Brian and I had to use up the two remaining uses on our Seishun 18 tickets. After our speech and before our final we and I think everyone else at JCMU was just itching to get out of the dorm building. So, because the [...]

Well I’ve just talked to someone at Northwest Airlines (whose computer, just as I gave them the data on my flight, crashed and then I had to wait like 15 minutes for her to reboot), and changed my flight to April 16. My aisle seat is now gone, so its going to be 12 [...]

Well today we had a big meeting for all the students concerning departure information. The usual blah blah then is when we have to leave, you have to have your room inspected. Well, I knew that people had to be out of the dorms on April 16, and with my flight leaving April [...]

April 1 saw the fourth and final field trip for my Japanese Civilization class. Our destination: Hikone castle. I wasn’t especially thrilled to go there, mostly because I’ve already been there once and it was pretty disappointing the first time. I’ve since been to many other castles in this country, including Himeji [...]

I’m getting another roommate. Yes, #5 in 8 months. I received this email from Karen the other day:
We are possibly going to have 2 new female B-Program students moving into
the Residence. If they do, they will be your new roommates, and will stay on
here after you go home. While we are not sure [...]

So my previous blog post about going to Kyoto to see sakura, I just tired to post it at 2:06am here in Japan, and an interesting thing happened: it wouldn’t show up on my site. I couldn’t figure out why, until I saw it told me it was a “Scheduled Entries” that would be [...]
