Have you learned any Japanese to prepare for the trip? It never hurts to know some basic words and phrases!

One of my classes at UNC Charlotte is on the history of Tokyo, and we get to travel to the city and stay there through spring break, March 4 to March 14.
Besides being a RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME opportunity I can't believe I didn't mention earlier, I'm bringing this up to let you guys know that I won't be able to visit the Board or work on missions/beta-reading stuff much over those ten days. I'm planning to buy a Japanese SIM card so I don't go completely off the grid, but I'm also working on the assumption that said SIM card has a strict data limit. So, limited contact.
Also, spending the entire trip with my nose stuck to my phone and/or iPod is both really rude and really pointless. :P
He sure enjoyed it. I'm sure it will be the same for you.
Tell us about your amazing adventures when you're done, why don'tcha?
*slinks off to pout over the fact that she has to wait to go abroad*
Make sure to tell us all about it!

実は、今までUNCCで日本語を勉強してきた。 でも、まだ話すことは上手で出来ない。 私はこの旅行には話すことを練習できてほしい。
(In case your computer/device can't display Japanese text, my post translates as "Yes, that's right. Actually, I've been studying Japanese at UNCC for three years. But I still can't get good at speaking. I hope I can practice speaking on this trip.")
(You're welcome. :D)

... that you're not going to Italy in order to find yourself, gorge a boatload of pasta, and snuggle up to Javier Bardem. In roughly that order. =]
