Flying back to Canada!

Hello! The day has finally come!!! I'm flying back home!

It has been an eventful year. I've made so many friends, seen so many places, and done so many things during this one year. I'm really glad I wrote it all on my blog because when I look back and read older posts, I realize that I've already started to forget some of the things that happened.

I don't think anything could have been better. Sure, I could have done without having my tooth die and without tearing my MCL, but looking back now, they brought along other experiences, like visiting a dentist and a doctor in Japan.

I am not yet finished with this blog. Technically, my blog's name is "What happens in Japan..." and when I return to Canada, that no longer applies, but after I've safely landed and recovered from jet lag, I intend to write a few posts about my readaptation to Canadian foods, Canadian weather (apparently, it snowed for the first time yesterday), Canadian culture, etc. I think it'll be quite interesting to go back and experience what they call "reverse culture shock".

I am going to have to leave you to go finish packing so this will be it for today. Next time I post, I'll be sitting cozily at home, perhaps sipping hot chocolate and gazing out at the falling snow from the window.

I'm leaving Japan but since I know I'll be going back again (and again), I won't say "Goodbye", but rather "See you later!".

Here I come Canada!
