Hey CKTey,
Cool. I have another mate bringing a larger laptop thenMine's the Studio 15.
Haha kshoo... sama geng ya... in fact I should bring my current 1210 but my parents want it so that they can use it to have video chat with me when i reach there. Comments on Studio XPS 13 are not so positive due to the heat problem and the rest of the small laptop line up are not so tempting, in the end i choose this 16 -.-
Wow! I have not been around a few days and the posts increased so dramatically!!!
My computer has almost reached its end period, almost everything is in bad state now. I am still thinking whether I should be buying one here or in Japan. The price of notebooks in www.kakaku.com looks tempting... It is the standard price Japanese used to compare while they are doing online shopping.
So how's your preparation? Do let us October people know what problems you are facing...

I was just checking out kakaku.com more into detail. I realized its a price comparison website. seems really good too. All the stores can ship, and most of them do COD(cash on demand), so you don't need a credit card. And some will allow you to pick it up in the store. Pretty neat, I will keep this website in mind. Thanks kouki!
Oh and the netbooks seem a bit overpriced in japan compared to the US.

Congratulations! You probably got my room! I just got a chance to switch from a single room to a couple room in Shugakuin (somebody cancelled a couple room), so one single room for a girl became free. We'll be dormitory mates

why do you prefer a couple room to a single?
Because then my husband can stay at the same room as me when he is in Japan.

Aww...now I have to travel VERY early in the morning alone. Happy for you though!
dude, you gonna stay in oobaku too? Please wake me up also haha
I'm at ohbaku as well, don't forget. Hoping very much to form an early morning travel buddies group...
I just got back home to find a large envelope from Kyodai in my mailbox. Inside are a "we're so glad to have you" letter, a letter about what I should expect financially, the official Handbook for International Students and a questionnaire I have to return regarding placement for the Japanese course. Now I finally feel like I'm really leaving in three weeks...

No problem, after you wake me up!

Don't wait for me if I don't show up in 10 minutes after our scheduled meeting time.
I have a good and valid reason to be late, I need to sleep.
Because then my husband can stay at the same room as me when he is in Japan.
oh so you dont really have a roommate...only when your husband is visiting...that'll be nice...huge room
I hope he will be visiting often, and for a long time (and somewhere deep in my heart I hope that he will stay there permanently), but yes, I'll have a bigger place to live, and that's nice!
Oronen, it's nice you got an official letter. I still didn't receive anything, neither from the embassy nor from the university. I guess my package will also arrive soon. Anyway, the three weeks will be gone before we know it.
>>> Malaysians,
I went to Embassy today to collect my visa, but until just now I found out that my visa expiry date is on 6 Jun 2009 and the issue date is 6 March 2009. Just 3 months of stayin Japan?
What expiry date stated on your visa? I'm wondering whether embassy printed wrongly on my visa? but there the year of stay is correct : 2 years.

Ms Yin has already foreseen this.
Please refer to her e-mail dated 24 Februray 2009.
Q: OMG, I've applied my visa but the expiry date is in May/June!!!A: Don't worry. The expiry date simply means expiry date for your entrance to Japan. In other words, you must enter Japan before the expiry date.

really hope can ask u guys lot of the application matter, if you guys go out, pls dun forget to mention here!!!
Hi all,
really nice to meet so many ppl here especially from Malaysia!
i am also going to apply MEXT this year and from engineering background as well!
from you all information, during the time in university, i have a chance to work as research assistant with my lecturer and with a professor from a japanese university.
recently, i have sent email to that professor and he has agreed to accept me to do master under his supervision.
hence, i would like to ask that do i have any advantages if i apply for MEXT scholarship?
Do i still need 2 sit for the exams which conducted by the embassay even though i had obtain the letter of acceptance?
Besides, regarding to the field of study and study program in Japan, can i ask professor there to send me a sample or i need to create a new topic by my own?
i now feel really headache abt it especially is the study program part, i really hope that somebody who had obtained the scholarship can give me a hint of it!!
