LIMBO: Is it really a bad thing?

Here I am, with only five days left in the US. The infamous Limbo is upon me. About two weeks ago, I received my student VISA. It followed with much excitement, and a little confusion. I've always heard it's extremely difficult to obtain a Japanese student VISA, however after about 5 minutes in the empty, Kanji filled room, I was instructed to return the next day at 9 am to pick up my Student VISA.

After I returned from Atlanta, not two days later I was on a plane again to Florida. The bulk of my family lives down there, so I decided a visit should be in order before I leave the country for a year. It was quite enjoyable, I stayed with my grandparents, who took me out to eat many times. (Who doesn't love going out to eat?)

Now that I have returned home from Florida, I've been spending my final days here pretty much doing absolutely nothing. It's making the wait a good deal longer, but all that will change tomorrow. I will be making a drive to Charlotte in order to pay some final fees to my university and catch up with some fellow class mates.
