Just called Geos, the second company I interviewed with, and I somehow got a job. I'm a little surprised, but it's certainly a boost. However, I have no idea where I'd be placed and, honestly, I don't particularly like their business tactics. I have a week from tomorrow (when I get the contract and associated materials) to mull it over. In the meantime, I'll hear from the job I am more interested in tomorrow, and, if I'm really feeling a glutton for punishment, I have an interview starting Thursday with Aeon - a company even bigger than Geos.

I still really would like to be in Tokyo, but it doesn't look like that's going to happen. Everyone keeps telling me it should be so easy - I don't know why I've had such a difficult time... Anyway, if I'm placed in Hiroshima I should have a good time, and after a year I can try to find something in Tokyo. But I haven't gotten the job yet...
