Tadaima!
So I've finally returned to New Jersey from Japan to face the grim reality that the rest of my natsuyasumi is going to be boring and disappointing compared to the insane business and fun I had in Kanazawa. My flights were long and really boring... they sat me between a really fat guy and the air conditioner, so one half of me was freezing cold and numb while the other half was pressed underneath of a hot sweaty man who needed to take half of my chair in addition to his own. I tried speaking Japanese to some Japanese people, but they just spoke to me in English so it wasn't very fun...
I spent the weekend in Tokyo with friends, and it was a great end to the most fun month of my life. It was a long time since I laughed like I did in Tokyo, and I've never laughed that hard so many times in my life. We had a really great group of people studying together in Japan.
Now that I am back, I'm going to try to finish up my sketchbook and scan it, then upload the scans and the photos of my trip. I'll post a link as soon as it is underway, as well as posting a link to Leo's site again once he's all finished. Since I wasn't able to update this blog last month, you'll see that I just now posted my emails that I sent out, so go on and read them if you want.
Oh and I wanted to say thanks to Bronwen, the first person I talked to after I got home. Our conversation went something like this:
Matt: Hey!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bronwen: Hey Matt, when are you going to Japan?
Matt: .......
