These are the original e-mails I wrote to my friends back home while I was in Japan. There is plenty of stupid, silly stuff within these e-mails, but at the same time they do contain some potentially useful information about Japan and a look into the adjustment process of one student's first journey abroad. Please excuse all the typing mistakes in the e-mails, but I originally wrote these e-mails in a hurry since there was so much to be told, and I really didn't feel like going back through and editing. I know at times it may appear I don't speak English from some of the stupid mistakes I made, but I can assure you that's not how I normally write (well, actually it's pretty close, but please don't make fun of me). Also, as you may soon discover, I have a real problem with making new paragraphs. I have single paragraphs that are longer than some of the research papers I've written. I don't know how this happened, but again, I'm too lazy to go back through and fix it now, so just deal with it! You can scroll down and read the e-mails in order, or you can click on the links below to go directly to each one:
