new news

I know this is going to sound strange, because i complained about everything over the winter. That was because it was the winter and i was cold (i didn't use my heater to save money) and lonely (all my friends moved to Tokyo). Well i extended my contract until June. So i will be staying about two months longer. There were three teachers leaving on the same week for my area and they couldn't replace us all. So i said i would stay for the following reasons:
1) I have a girlfriend and new friends now... these people are going to show me around to all the fun places that i may have missed.
2) It is the spring time... in Japan the spring time is very beautiful, with many festivals and the cherry blossoms blooming. Also, i get a week off of work for a huge holiday called Golden Week.
3) I have alot of money... it is amazing how in just one winter of hermitage (sp?) you can save a buttload of cash. All thanks to free online video games and dollar movie rentals (RIP).
4) because i am saving GEOS they are giving me a full years of Paid Sick days +1. So on my last working day at GEOS they will pay me (upfront) for 11 working days. Plus, they are sponsering my Visa for another year. So on my way back from China I can stay with Dave for a lil bit... or i can comeback no problem this year.
