JET Program

Status: Thinking
Quote of the day: None

I just received an email from Helen, a wonderful friend I've known since 5th grade. We've been both interested going to Japan and learning Japanese since...forever. It all started with Sailor Moon ten years ago. We started watching the show, started reading manga, started drawing and eventually, started to learn Japanese. I actually had applied for the EAP Japan program at my school, but the program I was specifically applying for was canceled. I still have my recommendation letters too!

With that said, my desire to visit Japan have not diminished. One day, Helen and I were talking about it, and decided that we should apply for the JET program. We can live and teach in Japan. In the email, she asked me if I was still interested and my response is "definitely yes." Going to Japan is one aspect, but I've also wanted to experience living on my own in a different place. I think it'll be an awesome adventure. Helen, let's go! After all these years of hoping and planning, I hope we will make it!
