Waseda University: Classes

Hi hi~ remember when I said I was going to write this post in Japanese? Totally forgot that before I wrote it. Oops.


In this post I'm going to talk about the class system at Waseda, signing up, how classes work and ultimately how the system ends up failing the student if they change their mind.…

Japan: The Backup Plan

Heyo~! I apologize for the lack of vlogs these days, the weather has been pretty rainy so I haven't dared to bring my camera out of my apartment. 
I'll most likely make a sort of compliation-type video of places I've seen, things I ate, etc!
This post is going to be about the plan that …

#TOKYOVEGANFESTIVAL

Happy October everyone! September totally flew by~ To kick off the beginning of this month, Sayaka and I attended a Vegan food festival in Tokyo, held in Kiba Park. 
The festival was from 10am to 4pm, but Sayaka and I attended with the Tokyo Vegan Meetup.com meetup group, and so we all gathered at…

Finally, Classes Begin! (VLOG)

Today was my first day of classes! 



I took a short vlog documenting how my day went today! 

My first class started at about 10:40 am, so I walked to campus and tried to find my class. The classrooms were a little difficult to navigate, but eventually I found my classroom and had my first class! It w…

Karaoke Nights

I've come to some realizations about my myself, how I feel about Japan, and the way I want to approach my Youtube videos from now on.
I made a little 'clothing haul' video but after watching it, I realized that it's really not who I am. I'm not really some wannabe big Youtuber …

Art Museum and Chill?

Hi there~ I am finally back with another vlog, really trying to get the hang of vlogging!


So I decided to head over to Lily's to stay the night, and I'm really glad I did. Lily's family has welcomed me with open arms and have continuously told me 'If you ever feel lonely you can com…

The Good, The Bad and The Ugly

After the last vlog I took, I've sort of put my camera away for a few days, for a few reasons. I've been feeling pretty ill since arriving in Japan, which I'll chalk up to the changing weather and jet lag, however I've also not been in a 'vlogging' mood. 
In this post I'…

Settling In & Cafe Shy

Welcome back to another post! 

So in this episode, the blog post will be vastly superior to the video (in my opinion) because I filmed kind of randomly. I have been feeling a bit under the weather since arriving to Japan, and I think the weather has a lot to do with it. It rained a lot yesterday so…

Flying to Japan~

Hi there~ I've created some vlogs you can view on my channel 'Sincerely Alice' on Youtube
My most recent video includes details of my flight~

This whole journey really became real to me as I sat in my seat on the plane. The gut feeling of nervousness finally sunk to the pit of my sto…

I Got Accepted Into Waseda University!

I'll try keep this post super brief, but yesterday while I sat on the plane coming back from my vacation in Florida I received an email congratulating me and welcoming me to Waseda!

Of course, I ended up crying my eyes out right before takeoff and probably concerning everyone around me. It was …

Journey to Waseda: Study Abroad Orientation

My first official Vlog! Sorry for the awkwardness and the hiccups, I'll have to work on being more natural in front of the camera.
Hope you like it!
