100 Days of England - JET medical [Day 20]

Apologies for the radio silence.

A lot has been going on, but mostly unrelated to JET.

Classes have finished, my coursework is handed in, and I have just one more exam to sit before I'm done with uni.

Girugamesh have announced their break-up, and as a result I have added two more shows to take the number of European shows I am going to up to 5. I've also booked a return flight to Tokyo before I fly out with JET to attend their last gig with my friend Daisuke.

In slightly more JET related news, I had my medical the day before yesterday. It cost me £90 to book it a few weeks ago, and Larni booked appointments at pretty much the same time, and went together to do exactly the same thing I did 2 years ago for my Year Abroad medical. Including an X-Ray at the hospital which I will be invoiced a further ~£70-ish at a later date.

The x-ray results should take 3 days to about a week to come back to me, at which point I will go and pick my medical form up from the doctors, who have kept it, and I will send it to JET along with my ICPC which I received weeks ago.

Today, we (Larni and I)'ve spent the day preparing for a party we're hosting for our friends from our Japanese class tomorrow. I.e. tidying the wreck that our house became during deadline season!

Today is day 20 of 100 days of England. We have 80 days left!

100 days of England [Day 1].

It might have gone past midnight, but whatever!

This blog died when I returned to England, but I'm going to be picking it back up again thanks to the fact that I shall be returning to Japan as a JET at the end of July! In fact, in 99 days!

So, I decided I'd do a little countdown, and my best friend, and housemate, Larni, who has also been accepted onto JET will be joining me. I'll be posting a link to her blog later :3

I guess this is also going to be the master post! I'm going to aim to post everyday, but since there's going to be people that just want to skip to the important, JET related bits, I'll leave links to those days here when they pop up!

Right now I'm just slogging through the last part of my degree, so I won't have much about each day to comment on, but hopefully there will be something, and for particularly boring days, I'll post some past info about the JET application or something!

So, watch this space for new adventures!!

Today was day 1 of 100. I have 99 days left.
