Shizuoka AJET

Well this is a big week here as it's recontracting week. Hopefully the awful weather we had yesterday didn't affect any decisions. It's almost unfair that the decision has to come this week, with the mix of that weather and the already unsettling winter blues. But whatever you do, turn in your form and don't look back. Second-guessing yourself will get you nowhere. And for you first years, whether you do or don't recontract, don't let February get you down. February is a rough month, especially here, but it will end and then spring will be right around the corner.
Also, Yuki Matsuri is coming up. This Friday, many of our fellow ShizAJET members will be heading up to Sapporo for a weekend of fun in the snow. If any of you have any last minute questions about what to pack, where to go, or what to do while you're there, feel free to ask an AJET officer and we'll do our best to get you an answer.
Finally here are my suggestions for 3 things I think you should do while there:
3. Tour the Sapporo Beer Gardens. The tour itself is nothing special, but you get some cheap samples at the end who doesn't like that?
2. Check out the Odori site during the day and the Susukino site at night. The Odori site is not lit up very late and the Susukino site is more spectacular at night so that's my suggestion.
1. Ramen Alley. Do it. Butter/corn ramen. Do it. I ate 4 meals in Sapporo and 3 of them were in ramen alley. Just do it.
Have a great time!
