If that helped, then that's good. I know I seem to come off as brash, but there really is a line between fantasy and reality that people who are interested in Japan tend to blur to fit their liking. I've met several people with high profile degrees who have tossed those 4+ years of schooling away to partake in ESl type work overseas. Not that there is anything wrong with teaching a foreign language, but it would definitely help if you're actually a teacher and/or care about teaching. To use something like that as a vessel for a means to and end (in this case just getting to a foreign country) doesn't sit well with me.

My father still tells me (even though I have a job/attend university) "Find what you love to do, and learn how to make money doing it." If your interest is in computers, and you want to go to Japan, something as simple as what spicytuna proposed as your plan of action for making your dream come true. If your heart is set on teaching English, then more power to you. There needs to be more people like you who actually care to do the job they signed up for.
