So it's been a while, hasn't it? I technically have internet, but until my charger arrives (supposedly tomorrow) I have to use it on my TV. If you've never used TV internet - it's a fucking pain in the ass. It takes fifteen minutes to write a five sentence e-mail, because you have to do it on the remote. I don't recommend it.

Anyway.

Training took place in the mountains of Fukushima, so internet access was impossible even if I'd borrowed someone's laptop. (As it is, I'm on Giovanni's laptop - the only thing I've liked about this experience has been being placed with someone from training.) I'll post pictures as soon as I can set up my own laptop, promise.

Joytalk, while they seem a nice company, is incredibly disorganized. They clearly wanted to keep the training to a week to look good for the Boards of Education - we could have done all our training in three days for all we actually did. Coming back from it wasn't much better - the plans to have the train lists and to be met by people at the trains were scrapped because e-mails didn't come and papers weren't given, etc., etc. The whole thing has been really worrying, really. But things seem to be settling a bit.

I'll have more to update with as soon as I can use my own laptop. 'Til then.

She liiiiives! Fukushima, eh? That's hella far away. But my friend lives/lived there so I want to visit one day. I have never heard of this Joytalk company... must be a small up and comer?

Oh my gosh, *squishy* I have been thinking about you. I was hoping things were going well for you, but hopefully as things get less scattered, it will improve.

Stay safe and try to have fun ♥

I am probably going to kill them in their sleep, if it brings you any comfort.
