Godzilla Head
Added 2019-10-27 16:03:04 +0000 UTCHello patronites! How was your weekend? β€
I had a bit of a crisis this last few days so I decided to take some days off. Went to see the Godzilla head here in Shinjuku and thought I could share a bit with you! Are you a Godzilla fan? This is pretty close to my home, about 12min walking! π
It was very refreshing to have a weekend-off! I've been working non-stop since before the travel and I actually thought I would have some time when I got here, but nope, it was the opposite actually XD
So basicaly this is the summary of our first month here so far (almost):
πΈ 1st week: Registering our home address and Lia at the ward office and making our health insurances card. Patreon work and basically trying to figure out life here XD
πΈ 2nd week: Still figuring out life, going to the orientation classes from school and then actual classes have started, doing some more bureaucratic stuff + Patreon work
πΈ 3rd week: Adjusting a bit more to life here, met some online friends (not online anymore), studying A LOT (everyday we have homework to do + normal studying + Japanese classes from Monday to Friday 13h30 to 17h). More normal work and then I got sick but I'm better now XD
πΈ Current week: Got a few business offers, had a meeting, internal crisis, more studies and more work. I'm now finishing this month rewards and getting next month ready! π
So, it's been AGES I didn't study anything. Feels very good to be studying something I really enjoy π But also, it's very tiring with work and all XD With my classmates I talk in English or Japanese, but in classes it's 100% japanese all the time. It was very difficult at first but then you get used to it and it still amazes me to realize how much my japanese has improved with barely 3 weeks of classes ONLY. I was literally only capable of understanding a few words (thanks to animes XD) and now I can already order food (very important ok?!), do shopping, have casual (but very limited) conversations with neighbors and ask a few questions (and understand the answers!). So I'm very happy about it!
What I'm definitely not happy about Japan, well, at least Tokyo, is how expensive everything is XD That's why I'm working even harder! I definitely need to earn more here πΈ I'm accepting ideas π
That's all, sorry for talking so much! But thought you could enjoy some life updates β£
Love you! π
Comments
(I'm very sorry for now seeing this D:, usually I get emails when you make a post or reply, and for a bit I didn't get it, but now figured out it was my email app acting weird #datmileslife? #datgodotlife? XD) See now that's interesting to hear and I'm definitely curious about that, on things that are hard to find information about in Japan that they only tell you when you live there :o, As for friends there in #Vedotokyo, Well, from the outsider perspective, word was that Japanese people usually love to test their english out, and I initially thought Ms Moon fox would've helped you get set up for living there while you were in Brazil since she lives in VedoTokyo but i guess that didn't happen till you were living there (Saw the IG story where you finally met face to face :o ) As for what i call "Conversation Japanese" well there actually are apps and programs that help with specifically that very effectively, and I did send one to you AND the homie in email......but i guess you didn't see :o (im on my PC typing this out :p ) but i do understand what your sayian tho, that real-life experience is another level of difficulty that prep never fully prepares you for 100%, (As for the allergy ;_____; See if Japan has something called "Claritin", its an over the counter allergy medicine, and whenever I personally have allergies that usually helps, https://www.amazon.co.jp/s?k=claritin&__mk_ja_JP=%E3%82%AB%E3%82%BF%E3%82%AB%E3%83%8A&ref=nb_sb_noss_1 also, I'm confident that magnesium would help with trouble breathing, arythmia, anxiety, its been the one thing ive never paid attention to and once i did it made a dramatic difference, so if you haven't been taking it i really do HIGHLY recommend it) As for the #vedochat, yea im down for sure, but in aboutttttt a couple of weeeks XD, friend of mine who lived locally here for years is moving up north on the 15th of November, so we've been hanging out every weekend till he moves, so afterwards ill have time for sure (as I assume for you with #vedoschool that the weekend would be best for this) No worries on talking too much, this has been the most we talked in like 4 months! XDDD, and take ur time on the messages ^_______^, just once you don't forget to eventually read and reply im alright :p XD ^_____^ (back in school for this semester as well, so I know how it is with work and school draining free time)

2019-11-01 15:00:11 +0000 UTCThank you, Ricky! π Sorry for not being clear on this post! I'm studying only japanese! Patreon work is my work dedicated to Patreon only. Normal work includes everything else like dealing with social media, finishing costumes, preparing future plans, organizing my schedule and other works (like ads for companies and other collabs) aaaand the list goes on! XD I'm getting contacted by some modeling agencies here in Japan that are interested in my work! I've never did modeling professionally before (outside my own work), so I have no idea how it's going to work! π But I'll post about it when I have anything sorted! Edu will start to work here on this weekend! Yaaay! No problem about the Q&A thing <3

2019-10-30 15:28:30 +0000 UTC#vedozilla is definitely one of the greatest so far π€£ Anyways, I totally agree with you ππββ Japan is very different depending on the location and specially different if you're LIVING here (instead of being a tourist). Japan is very strict to MANY things and full of little rules that normally western countries don't have (or any other country besides Japan). Even with prior preparation, there are things you live only after getting here, no one will tell you, you can't really find all the informations on the internet. And for us, that don't have family or friends here and with sooo much specific things going on, it's even harder to find proper information :') I was studying japanese back in Brazil to be capable of reading Hiragana and Katakana (which I'm definitely capable of), but TALKING, LISTENING and UNDERSTANDING is a whoooooooole different story XD I do know how to read hiragana and katakana, but sometimes I have no freaking idea on what it means XD It's COMPLETELY different from Portuguese, so well, not much I can do! Only time and much study will help on this case XD To be abroad in a country you don't speak the language is very hard. No prior preparation can actually prepare you for that! XD You never know what is gonna happen. For example: I got sick. There was one specific day the allergy was so bad I got troubles on breathing. HOW DO I GO TO THE HOSPITAL IF I DON'T UNDERSTAND AND AM UNCAPABLE OF TELLING WHAT I'M FEELING π€¦ββ Real life struggles π Anyways, I talked too much! I'm definitely wanting to do another video chat session with you at some point, so we can talk properly! I still need to answer all your messages, will do that on this weekend after this little chaos of end of the month passes! <3

2019-10-30 14:50:14 +0000 UTCI'm glad to know you and Eduardo are doing ok in Japan, and that you are getting better in your Japanese. What are you studying besides Japanese? What's the difference between "Patreon work" and "normal work" (i.e. do you have a job in Japan besides your Patreon work?)? Is Eduardo doing tattoos over there? (yeah, I should have checked my Patreon posts before and put this questions before Friday for your Q&A, my bad).

2019-10-29 01:43:03 +0000 UTCDefinitely appreciate the post, number 1 reason im even here in the first place, also #vedozilla, I say this in a joking manner, but like, at this point, you could be on a desert island with everything possible and there would somehow still be 500 million things to get done and some crisis XDD ( again, joking/teasing intention XDDD) I guess I'm surprised to hear that the adjustment to life was difficult or took so long since there were tons of "prep" beforehand :o (like even in brazil you all were living all about Japan XD and i think i remember you saying you were studying Japanese in Brazil) like I thought you all would just roll in to Japan and naturally fit in with all the prep, but #datvedolife I guess. Glad you finally establishing a structure/routine there ^^.

2019-10-28 17:13:51 +0000 UTCI'm a HUGE Godzilla fan! That is so awesome right there! It's also amazing how much you have been going through, learning a new language and adjusting to the new lifestyle. Keep up the good work Danielle, but don't go overboard. Love you too. β€
