andreas cant make it back for the party cuz he is officially employed and starts work this week, cant take leave right after you start work so he wont be here :(

on the same topic, i went for an interview this morning at the japanese embassy. no im not trying to work at the embassy (although i wouldn't mind), its a teaching job in japan.
i actually enjoyed the interview, the interviewers were nice; even the security guards and cleaning lady were really sweet. i just hope and pray very hard that i did well enough to secure one of the vacancies.
we'll see in one month's time.
