Day 2 in Japan - Tokyo Orientation actually starts


Today was the first official day of work, and I actually enjoyed it! Had the Welcome/Opening Ceremony, then the keynote speech from the guy on the JET Life video, who was actually completely hilarious, human and probably made me feel better about being on the program than anyone I have talked to or anything I have read so far. Afternoons seminars were pretty good, the dinner was fun and it was nice to meet people from my prefecture. Ended up going to karaoke with a bunch of Hyogo dudes and had a blast. Met lots of nice people and, reassuringly, lots of people in the same “not much Nihongo” boat as me. Bed time now! Sleep!
