Move on hold

Des'ree arrived Wednesday then out in her notice exactlt one week later, so my transfer to Sapporo is on hold until they can find another replacement. I was due to move out of the apartment 10 days from today and had just started looking for a laptop to transfer all my files and photos to before leaving. Luckily I hadn't said anything about leaving to any of the students..although I was on the verge of it. My area manager is still planning on bringing me to Sapporo and Im quite happy to stay another month or so. I've become friendly with some of the foreigners on the local hockey team and would like to go see a home game before I leave - the next one is sometime in December.

So, it's gonna be Christmas in Kushiro. My replacement will now be my new roommate - another American called Erica. She asked Nova for my email address and has been in contact already. She's due Nov 29th. Gregg will be going home for Christmas which leaves me, Mike and this Erica girl. New year holiday starts shortly after christmas (exact date still tbc) and lasts for one week. Still not made any decisions about where to go but thinking about Tokyo.
