i went to yokosuka, japan, but it’s only because i’m in a military family. at first, all i can think about is how being in a new country sucked and how badly i wanted to go back to the states. but over time, i started to love japan. when i was told that we were being stationed back to the U.S., i didn’t want to leave. i regret spending over a year staying in my tatami floored room doing nothing while i could have climbed mt. fuji, or tasted all the japanese quisine that stared right at me in the face. so to all the people that go to japan, especially to military people: soak it all up. you’ll learn to love it. do everything you can to make ur stay enjoyable as possible before your time there is up.
