ARGH. So I would lose my wallet within days of leaving. Thankfully the only thing I really lost was the wallet itself (a nice silver Marc Jacobs one, supposedly no longer being sold). My GWID, Debit Cards, and Metro Card can all be replaced at least. I also took some cash out of the wallet, so I don't think I lost a ton of money (something less than $40 I think).
Still...very....very...frustrating...
Actually, these past few days have not been the greatest. Aside from a continuation in a string of stupid, vapid friendship issues, it's now raining, so I can't retake my driver's test. I now have to wait a year to retake it. CURSES.
There is somewhat of a silver lining though. Literally, silver, as in the color of the wallet. In trying to determine whether or not I could rebuy the wallet in Tokyo, I discovered that there are like 17 Marc Jacobs stores spread throughout the city. Why there are so many, God only knows. I also happened to find out who I should e-mail if I were interested in working in one of those stores. I can legally work part-time, 28 hours per week or 8 hours per day (during vacations), according to my handy-dandy International Student's Handbook. Hmm.
On a completely unrelated note, I just exchanged $243 dollars for ¥20000 yen, which is kind of lame because I basically paid $20 more than I should have. I didn't even get small bills, I got two ¥10000 yen bills. Also, it's scary that a few months ago it was roughly ¥100 yen to $1 dollar, and now (as of today) it's ¥90.475 yen to $1 dollar.
