It's a new kind of suffering; boredom without end! But surely this internetlessness is for the best- my umbilical chord to cyberspace should be wholly severed by the time I return home.
Umm, it's still unclear. The way I thought I was going to be able to get around the condition of how they give me the money for my ticket has fallen through. However, my board of education has brought in a travel agent to investigate everything for us, so that they can have the travel agent's word of honour that N yen is the price for a ticket to Winnipeg, and N yen is the cost to England. Then I can add my money to theirs and maybe get a ticket, if it's not too much.
Things that can effect whether it's too much: - whether i end up doing travel in Japan just before I leave - whether I need to pay for my own room and board during August or whether I can find a family to host me for that month.
