FINALLY, I have an internet connection I can use in my room! Now I can start posting again.
Lets see now, these first two(ish) weeks have been nothing short of amazing. Ive made loads of new friends and explored the city (in more ways than one). I've also done my fair share of drinking it has to be said, I think I went the first ten days drinking every night.
Ive got a really nice room here with my own en-suite, air-con unit, and even a balcony! (looking onto a main road) The dorm itself is only a 5/10 minute walk to the university and 1 or 2 from the nearest 2 Lawson's convenience stores, very convenient indeed!
On the University side of things, its been pretty hectic, what with all the orientations and mountains of registration paperwork last week, things are starting to settle down now, as we all start Japanese lessons on Tuesday (as monday is a national holiday).
I've also been allocated my lab! Horrah! And it's a good'un too. I'll be researching ERAD (Endoplasmic reticulum associated degradation), which is basically how your cells handle misfolded or aberrant integral membrane proteins.
I'll try my best from now on to do a post every day, including photos, to give you a tour of my life in Japan, お楽しみしてね＾＾
