exiled from japan

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Nanaimo, 2006.01.18

I am in visa exile, ejected from Japan and staying at my mum's place in Nanaimo.

It's a long, crazy story, but the details are here. Suffice it to say that I'm focusing on creating my own visa application and am staying positive. Helping with the 'staying positive' is that there's a really good Japanese restaurant a stone's throw from here.

Amazingly, I've been able to continue working for the client in the evenings.

If it's true that our species is alone in the universe, then I'd have to say that the universe aimed rather low and settled for very little.
