So, yeah, I'm still a bit bitter at being in Miyako, but of course I can deal. However, I did just apply for another company (actually turns out to be the same company that's picking up the elementary contracts in Miyako this coming school year), and while if hired I'd be taking a pay-cut of 10K Yen (~$100) a month, some of their locations are open "immediately," and one is in Ageo City, Saitama Prefecture, which is about a 40 minute train ride from Ueno station on Tokyo's Yamanote line. THAT is an awesome fucking placement. I figure with all the money I spend on getting somewhere interesting, hotels, etc. in order to have fun while living in Miyako, if I'm living in a city that itself is pretty big (~220,000 people) that is also near Tokyo, I can start spending less money on more important things than travel expenses. Plus, Saitama's capital, Saitama City, is PGH's sister-city and who knows, maybe I could get onto something with that. I've got 20 days until recontracting, so while I'm cutting it wicked close, I'm a bit hopeful that 100x more fun is in my near future.
Oh, plus, Interac took me off my favorite school (Miyako Kita, the one full of all the bad kids) and is now throwing me at Tanohata, about an hour to an hour and a half and (I'm guessing) ~1500 yen/trip away, for 2 days a week. Fucking hell.
