I do not have time to do this post justice, but I'm guessing that numerous short blog posts are better than long, but infrequent ones. Let me know if you think otherwise.
Last night I got about 7 hours of sleep, but kept waking up because my body thought it was day. Today we've been sitting for presentations in business dress (heels, pantyhose, suit and all), but at least we're getting paid for it. This afternoon my body told me it was time for bed, but I'm resisting the temptation to nap. They gave us a ton more books and information that I'd like to wade through and sort before leaving for Yamanashi. I'm writing this because I'm skipping the third time slot for breakout presentations (they were optional, so I'm not being bad) since the first two were not that helpful. I'm also getting a break from my darn suit.
Random Observation (from now on, RO) #5: It's not as hot and everyone said it would be, but then again, I've only been here a day.
RO #6: Did I mention that the bathroom has heated mirrors so it won't fog up? Also, the toilets are push button and have two bidet settings. The shampoo they provide is good. There's hot water and green tea in the room, too!
Hm, I wish there was more to report. After breakfast (which was fairly western style) I took a walk around the block, which was more complicated than it sounds. Nothing happened in the presentations that is worth repeating . . . Soon I have to go to the formal reception. Then hopefully I'll be able to get to bed!
RO #7: I am still a messy person. I've been here not 24 hours and my side of the hotel room is a mess.
RO#8: I love the internet. I feel like I'm talking to everyone when I post here and I love hearing from you, too!

Definitely, "numerous short blog posts" is my preference over "long, but infrequent"!
