Advertising
My friend Ikumi, who is a Gallaudet student sponsored by the Nippon Foundation, said she got an email asking her to advertise the JASS position. Apparently she hasn’t been very successful, because everyone at Gallaudet who has expressed interest has been a student who could only do summer work. But I worry about it being … Continue reading
Nail Polish Buys
So my friends Betty and Liane have kind of gotten me into nail polish stuff. I’m not as into it as Betty, but it’s kinda cool. Of course, being a sign language interpreter means I can’t have a lot of fun, but I’m trying. Today I bought some stuff: Confetti “Debutante” (pictures here, I am … Continue reading
Contemplating
Contemplating two things: 1. Switching this G+ circle to blog format. 2. The co-teaching position I was just offered at Gallaudet for spring semester.

Agencies
So I have collected the following additional possible rental agencies from the list I posted yesterday: http://www.tokyocityapartments.net/ – http://www.bamboo-house.com/en/index – http://tokyo.apartment-office.com/index.html – http://www.tokyorent.com/
Residences

Oak
I am starting to become very interested in Oak House: http://www.oakhouse.jp/eng/
Callback
Email from JASS referred to “deadline is Nov 30 and it takes about 2 months before we can have a meeting.” I couldn’t help it, I replied and asked if they meant two months from now, or from Nov 30. I suspect the former, and that a language issue caused the confusion. But if it … Continue reading
