The Truth
Well, everything happens for a reason I suppose. If I were working in healthcare at this time, it would be pretty much be a battle every day I assume. Anyway, we wanted to leave Japan. But now, seeing as how most flights are cancelled, or even if they aren't cancelled, this isn't exactly a good time to travel let alone move. So, therefore we are... not stuck in Japan, but we will be here for the unforeseeable future. That's only my opinion of course.
We’ve decided to stay in Japan for at least three more years. It may be more depending. If nothing else, I hope that we can get back to the city. You know, Tokyo. A little more English is allowed in Tokyo, but still not enough for me to have a healthcare career.
My Studies
BUT, I'm in Japan NOW, and I don't know what will happen. I'm worried we may lose communication with other countries. I'm a conspiracy theorist. Anyway, I'm here so I should study. I don't know how long I can keep working in a nursery. Plus, with the virus, I don’t truly know how long my school will stay open. I want to learn Japanese so that I have some chance of working from home.
What I'm Using to Study
I do hope that this time I can continue to study. I want to be able to do everyday things alone. I want to go to the doctor alone. I want to volunteer at a hospital, I want to be able to go shopping and ask questions. It's the little things that truly matter.
Plus, like I said, I want to work online. Ever since I moved to Japan, I have disliked working as a teacher. Preschool has been a little better for me. But it’s truthfully not the job itself, but more the people I have encountered at these jobs. I think it's a Japanese thing, but eventually if you are not Japanese, that type of environment starts to wear on you. In my opinion, its best to stick with the foreign staff.
Good luck on your Japanese studies. If you're quarantined it could be something to help you pass the time. Have fun!
