Well, it’s less than a month away! I figured I would bump this thread because I’m getting increasingly nervous and excited about it with every new bit of information I get. I’m signed up for my general orientation in two weeks, and then less than two weeks after that I fly to California for my three day orientation. Then it’s off to Tokyo and then my host family. Still haven’t gotten that info yet. I’ve been improving my language skills (I hope) and doing everything I can to learn about the culture and everything but I still feel like I’m going to make a fool of myself and seem like a total baka gaijin. Can anyone help asuage my fears???
