That way you can fit this around whatever activities you end up doing. They pay pretty well too. I made 30 dollars for an hour session and I did this about two or three times a week.
3. Buy deodorant. Japanese deodorant sucks, they don't use the stick kind there.
4. Bring condoms, I kid you not Japanese condoms are small as hell. I had to borrow some from another American who was smart enough to bring his.

I have to get a job because I can't afford to pay monthly rent without one, haha. Plus I'd like some spending money... as much as I would love to go around exploring, I can't afford it, unless I get every single scholarship I apply for or something.
I'll keep tutoring in mind, though--I'm not so much worried about the job part as I am the interview, haha. (My keigo = fail.)
At points 3 and 4: LOL XD I will keep that in mind. I don't plan on having a lot of sex over there, but it would really suck to be caught unprepared.
