Waddaaaap!! Thanks for all the well wishes people! Like, seriously. Much love.

Well, I made it. I'm freakin' in Japan. Day 3 I believe. It still feels unreal but I'm slowly starting to get my feet on the ground. I've gone around and done the family thing and had my obligatory helping of sushi. I spent all day today and checked out apartments and despite my uncle's advice to take it slow and steady, I signed papers for a place near Ikebukuro. It's a brand new loft-style apartment and it was too sweet ofa deal to refuse. The rent is cheaper than what I was paying in Vancouver as well so, like, wth. So that's one thing outta the way.

Last night I was wandering around in Ikebukuro and checked out bookstores, electronic stores and whatnot. It's been an inspiring coupla days let me tell ya. So many amazing reads to get through and story ideas to comb over before I begin to write and draw. THe cell phones here are rediculous as expected. I'm aiming to get one where you can flip the main screen sideways and watch TV on it. FOR FREE. I haven't taken any pics yet mostly due to the fact that I need a new camera. My comp is still boxed up as well and I haven't tested if it survived the plane trip over. I'll worry about that later.

I think the little things have been most rewarding. I saw a girl on the train today who couldn't have been more than 10 years old and was with her mom but was decked-out in a black navy jacket, short skirt, b&w striped goth socks and a leather shoulder bag with a skull and cross bones on it that read "GLORY OR DEATH". Word, sistah.

Aight. As soon as I settle into my place and have shit set up pictures will commence.
