Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that I only have carry-on luggage.

Thanks for all of your answers! I've decided to play it safe and have an overnight layover before my flight home.

Ask post: Word for the pleasure experienced in remembering?

Upon discussion with my friend (who was an English major) the exclamation eureka! (though that's a Greek word!) comes close to what I'm looking for.

Ask post: Konichiwa

Uh...in case you didn't know, wedding guests in Japan are generally expected to give cash gifts of about 30000 yen (~$280). But I'm sure you took that into consideration.

Ask post: US TV Shows in Japanese? For free?

Niconico Douga is like the Japanese version of Youtube. They have a few US shows dubbed in Japanese, like Stargate SG-1, Monk, and Ally McBeal. I'm sure you can find a few movies as well, like Napoleon Dynamite (named Bus Otoko or Bus Man in the Japanese dub).

Unlike Youtube, NicoDou requires registration first before watching the videos. Just learning how to work the site will help your Japanese ability!

Thanks for your responses. I already had law/grad school in mind, but was curious what I could do with just a BA, since right now I don't feel like going to school yet. To me, a salary in the low 30s is generous, so if I can get work like that I'd be satisfied for the time being.

By semi-fluent I mean around JLPT 2 level, which I'll be taking in December. Related to that is the reason why I decided to do Econ: because the department offered a great student exchange... [more]
