I'm leaving for Japan in 18 days. That's less than 3 weeks before I leave Minnesota, go to Chicago and get on a 14 hour flight to a place I know ridiculously little about. In the meantime, leaving my friends, family and pretty much everything I know. Except how to correctly construct a grammatical sentence. I get to keep that part of my OCD the whole time I'm there :)
Here are things that I need to do before I leave:
sign up for absentee voting
pack!
actually study some Japanese (no. seriously.- keeping the book in my room does not count as studying)
say goodbye to everyone
eat at all my favorite restaurants
visit Madison?
figure out how skype works (and buy a webcam so I can video chat)
set Mom up with a Netflix queue
set Lisa and Mom up with Facebook accounts
tell bank I am moving so they don't freeze accounts
exchange dollars for yen
talk to Verizon about canceling contract
Things I need to buy to bring with:
toothpaste
deodorant
clothes for layering
a couple of new pairs of shoes to wear indoors
Things I will forget to pack:
a toothbrush
pictures of holidays
something to occupy my spare time
Things it will be cooler to buy there:
knives
new hairbrush
