O NO! I jinxed myself. My bro just told me that my cousin will be going to Japan in SEPTEMBER instead of August, which means I'll be really hard for me to go. :shamefulcry:

Shutpid job.

Better to avoid August anyway, although I know you teach so you're looking for what fits in your schedule.

Yesh. I can do two weeks in December, one week in March, all of June, and two weeks in August. That's my vacation time, but only the two weeks in Dec and the one week in March are paid vacations.

I think any of those might be preferable to August as far as the weather is concerned. I'm sure you can read more about it...

You could always use sick days. My aunt, who is a teacher, is always sick, the week before or the week after, spring break. ;)

Yea, I was thinking of doing that, but September is really awkward because it's the beginning of the year, which is the toughest time.

Yes. Not a good idea. That surely will piss off the direction and not good for the students too.

You could always go in mid October. It's still 20C in Tokyo IIRC. Which is not bad. During spring you have sakura though. :rolly:

Yeah I went in early October. The weather wasn't bad. It rained a bit because we caught the edge of a typhoon. Otherwise it didn't cramp our style. But yeah spring would be nicer ^_^

October is my birthday, so I might be able to swing that off. What's considered spring there? April/May?

Sakura are from March to May. Depending where you are going. Where do you intend to go? Just Tokyo?

This is some crazy shiet....you need the Rosetta Stone to figure what this Engrish means:

I found this profile at one of those social networking sites, read the caption

:lol:

Seriously. They should stop making those stupid translator software. They don't even work 5% of the time.

Anyway, good luck krim. I think she says she's collecting husbands all year round. When beginning a new year, she starts looking for new ones. :hehe: :beaten:

Well, when I was planning to go with the cousin, than the locations I could visit were somewhat endless (I have a lot of money saved :victory: ).

I'm not too sure now.

Isn't that in August? If so, it's more within my grasp since Japan is out of the picture. :shamefulcry: O! Btw, my flight back to Canada from China makes a stop in L.A. :hehe:

@Toshi-kun: Can't see that pic from work, so I'll comment when I get home. :doh:
