I just received a notification that my welcome packet from the University of Kitakyushu has arrived at my house (thank you Japanese mail tracking!), but I'm three time zones away at the moment so I'm waiting for a friend to scan and send it to me.

I actually started a countdown on an app on my phone; it says it's 46 days until departure (or d-day as I've started to abbreviate it). This is the first time I've put it to a number and forty-six doesn't sound very long! I swear, some days I'm more excited and confident, while some days I'm more nervous. On those days I think I should probably be studying more...
