Getting closer...

Tuesday, 3 September 2013

As they say, shit’s getting real. On Friday I got an email saying that within a week I’ll get my visa documents (mainly the Certificate of Eligibility, which is issued by the Ministry of Justice just to say that I’m ok to study and/or work in Japan) and today they arrived safely right into my hands.


I think someone must’ve made a trip from the office to the campus gift store or something because the documents arrived in a Kanazawa Daigaku folder. (FYI, the Japanese really like that kind of folders, often you can get them for free as part of some advertising campaigns – for example I have one advertising ATMs at train stations – but you can also buy them: with cute animals, with nice views, with celebritie etc.)


It’s a bit of a pity that the actual handing in of the application has to wait until next week, when I’m back from Poland, but better late than never and it still should all be done comfortably in time before the flight. So on Tuesday the 10th of September I have an adventure called day trip to London (5 hours coach drive one way, about 5 hours in London and 4 hours coach drive back – coz any other way is not tough enough!), my second trip to the embassy and then…

Jesus, and then last minute shopping and packing, and I’m flying out! O.O I still can’t fully process that it’s so close…
