Well, during my four months of teaching here, I have yet to see the cliched 'standing in the hallways holding buckets of water' punishment.

Finally back from Tokyo. Started queuing from around 5:50am but when I got to the Goodsmile corner, there seemed to be 1000 people in front of me! Was really great, picked up a couple bargains from the Hobbystock booth. But the heat, oh that damned heat.... made that 4 hours of queuing the longest in my life.... ( コメントを見る » )

Hey, I'll be heading over to Japan shortly as part of the JET program. I'm placed in Fukushima, but I shouldn't have much trouble taking the shinkansen down for Wonderfest 12/8 as well as Comiket 18-19/8. Hope to see you around! :D ( コメントを見る » )
