Today I am going to attempt to make it out of Japan. Flying stand by is SO annoying. Yes, it's cheap, but the amount of years it shaves off my life is not worth it sometimes. I'm going to leave soon to take a $15, three hour trip to the airport. Once there, the desk agent will tell me they can't help me yet and I'll have to come back 45 minutes before the flight leaves. If I'm lucky, I'll get on the plane. If I'm really lucky, I'll sit in business class. If I'm not lucky, it's a three hour $15 trip back home and another three hours and $15 to try again tomorrow. My plan is to go to Portland for a few days and check out some schools. Then I'll head off to Salt Lake City to visit my brother and sister-in-law and go skiing for a few days. Then it's back to Japan for a week before taking my final trip back to Pohang. It'll be amazing if it all goes off with out a hitch. I'm hoping it will, starting with today.
