Almost There

Hey everyone! Sorry it has been so long for me to write or do anything. It has been pretty crazy here with studying for placement tests among many other things. I just got back from Tokyo 2 days ago. I went for the weekend with one of my buddies. There is some pictures above if you are in to that sort of thing. It was awesome seeing old friends in Yokohama and kind of just relaxing. School starts here on Monday and I have only 1 more placement test. This weekend should be pretty crazy with everyone wanting to party one last big time before we have to bear down and start classes. I love being legal here by the way. You have to be 20 to do everything so it is so great(maybe a little too). Keep in touch with me, I would love to hear from everyone/anyone. PS how the hell did Iowa State beat us? That was a shocker to say the least. I got up Sunday morning and checked the score and I couldn't believe it. Also I have a new email address and it is on my phone so if you write me I will get it instantly. Just keep it short because it is hard to write English on the phones here. Hope you are all amazing and have a good one.



Love,

Chicago Goodbye

So I am sitting the Chicago airport bored, tired, and damn sad. I said my final goodbyes to everyone at Soldier Field yesterday and I am missing everyone already. It is tough. My plane is about to board for San Francisco where I will spend 1 night before I leave for Nagoya tomorrow. I am FINALLY ready to go! Let you know when I land.

Love,
Richie
