Japan? Job?

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA, my brain is gonna explodify. I'm SERIOUSLY considering moving to Japan and teaching English. I KNOW I've considered this a ton before, but I kept away from the idea like the plague, cause I didn't think I could do it. But yappari I think it's a job that I would really enjoy. I really LOVE teaching English whenever I get the chance to Japanese friends I had in Japan, and then Saori. I love English. And language classes were always the most fun classes to take in school.

Reasons I want to move to Japan:

  • The TV
  • The food
  • My love for the language
  • I think I'd love an English teaching job
  • My love for a certain musician that I've made a goal in my life to meet and be friends with someday (haha, I know)
  • Being the coolest guy in any crowd (duh, cause I'm an American)
  • A girl named Maki Saori

    Reasons I don't want to move to Japan:

  • My family doesn't live there
  • Some things are expensive there
  • I'd be an outsider

    The family thing is the biggest thing for me to consider. I'd miss them a lot, but I know for sure that my mom and dad would be so sad without me around. Some people don't have great relations with their parents, but I have a very close relationship with both of them. I'm the most important thing in the world to both of them, and I know how much it would hurt them for me to move away. But I gotta think of my life and do what makes me happy. They would understand that too, but still... The pros are outweighing the cons.
