More clouds and an update

Photo of some clouds near the ocean.

It is starting to get chilly here, although not as cold as Boston. Insulation etc is not as well put together, though, so I feel like the cold is felt more then Boston.

Work is busy busy busy. I am learning about US history to make presentations, and keep having flashbacks to highschool history classes. I am also giving watercolor classes, and getting up to date on my art history. Ditto with winter holidays. I am not sure how other people do things in my same job position, but for now I can say, become a JET CIR (with focus on events and presentations) and you will be a full time ambassador, anthropologist and researcher.

Have not been to comics shows (still not sure if indie comics and comics arts festival culture exists in Japan like I saw in Boston etc.), but I do occasionally show my printed comics to people. Most of the time they can't immediately read the English text, though....

I am settling in. It is very rainy here with hurricane season, but it means there are amazing clouds.

I'm in Japan

I'm in Japan settling into my new apartment (handed down from former CIRs) and figuring out my new job at the city office. I'm still alive, just wanted everyone to know! I am going to another orientation tomorrow.

My supervisor suggested I put a drawn/doodled self-portrait on my business cards.

Farewell to Boston, Hello to Japan

Hello all!

In July, I wrapped up work at MIT and left Boston. In a few days, I am flying out from San Francisco to Japan to work under the Japan Exchange and Teaching program. Whew! A lot of change! I will be in Kyushu.
