A Road to Japan: Still waiting.....

Time goes sooooo sloooowly when you are waiting.........

 I'm heading into my 10th week of waiting and I have to say it really is killing me. On the plus side it's given me time to start trying to find ways of making money incase I am accepted. I just sold a load of unwanted books and shoes etc. on Ebay this weekend and made about £80 so far! *GO ME*
 
I'm also considering bombarding people with pretty cupcakes in an attempt to make extra cash. JET isn't going to be cheap and so I'm trying to find any way possible of making money (legally ofcourse! ;D) 
Until then, I am slowly withering away inside. Come on April!!! Bring us all some good news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...In other headlines, I made it to my first Kyu grade last weekend. My aim is to make it to black before the summer gets here. I've been training just over 4 years now so it would be amazing to make it there before I (potentially) leave for Japan. But we shall see what unfolds over the next few months. Gotta keep working hard! Practise makes better afterall! :)

1st Kyu! Awesomeness!!! :D

Hopefully my next JET update will be a good one. It really does feel like forever ago I had my interview. I can only hold my breath and keep my fingers crossed; whatever will be will be eh? 
Until then I shall endeavour to raise as much money as possible. More Ebay and Cupcake baking here I come!!!!!! 

I'll leave you with some amazing music that has kept me going this past week:

A Road To Japan: The Waiting Game....

So yeah. I'm waiting. Waiting, waiting waiting. It's already been about 6 weeks since I had the interview and I'm kind of getting to that restless stage now. I just want to know so that I can start getting on with things. It's frustrating that the wait has to be so long. I have at least another 4-5 weeks left before notifications will go out. I wana knooooooooooooow!!!

I'm keeping busy with work and training and also Japanese classes which does help take my mind off of things for a little while. But it's got to the stage now that every time I go into the office at work or my club etc. people will ask me "Have you heard yet?" "When will you hear?" "APRIIIIIIIIIIIIIL"

Having all of this time to contemplate my application and interview can be annoying. I keep going over things and wondering whether I should have done this differently or said that better. But there's nothing I can do now. My advice to anyone applying in the future; make sure you have plenty of things to keep your mind occupied, or you may just go crazy......
