I have probably said this before, but I think I'm allergic to Japan. Or maybe just Tochigi. At the beginning of this school year (April), I had breakouts. Not bad ones, but breakouts like I haven't had in years, since I finished a regime of Accutane (I'm pretty sure it was. It was a long time ago, in high school.).

When I went back for summer vacation? Cleared up in two days and didn't come back for a month. Now that I'm back in Japan for a little over a month? I'm having the breakouts again. I came back with Retin-A this time, and I've been using it. It hasn't been doing much.

I don't want to be allergic to Japan, guys. OTL

In other news, I'm appearing in the "fashion show" at my school. The hilarity? The kids participating will be showing off their sporty shorts that they've been making. I will be in the chemise la reine I made earlier this summer, complete with corset (which is not yet finished) and petticoat(s) (I haven't decided if it's really worth it to bring both, since bringing the outfit at all will be quite the trip).

And in other other news, I'm taking not only the JLPT, but the kanji test level 7. Mostly this is to help motivate me to learn kanji in preparation for the JLPT. There are only 640 kanji on this test, as opposed to the 1000 or so needed for JLPT level 2, but 640 is better than the handful that I know/can remember now. So.

I think I'm allergic to something here too, or maybe it's just all the DUST in the air, but I have not been able to breathe freely since I came here almost a year ago and it SUCKS. >_< I hate stuffy noses and random sneezing!

I know! My nose randomly started going off on me, too, like a week ago. I thought maybe the skin thing was due to IDK eating so much rice or something equally laughable. But with my nose added into the bargain... I think I'm allergic to Japan DDDDDDDDD:

YEah, I've been having skin problems, but I think it's due to higher levers of chlorine in the water drying out my skin.
But yeah, every day it's stuff. and I HATE IT >_
