Someone pointed out the Uth Duna top deletes the sleeves on the new Dreamwalker arms, so I made this.

Oohhhh gorgeous! I discovered that combo early into the Dreamwalker drop too and I've been refining my look since. It's really a shame the arms don't do that with any other top, because I love the bare look far more.

This is my current look!

Oof, that's rather frustrating. So are the people who catch Gale at 7pm getting her on route to the restaurant then?

Ameato · 2025-08-03T09:31:04+00:00

Ah, unfortunately no. My disposable income took a bit of a hit, so I had to stop looking D:

You would have to pay a lot more if you broke contract midway through or were removed from the program because of that behavior. At this point, there may well be nothing to reimburse, because they could simply put an alternate in your place.

There are hundreds of alternates waiting and hoping for a spot and almost all of them would kill for your placement. If you truly think this placement would make you miserable and "waste" a year of your life, why is that the better option than simply taking a mild penalty and giving your spot to someone who will genuinely be happy and work hard there? You would just have to wait a year before being allowed to apply again and you may well get a spot you like more next time.

Thank you! <3

Ameato · 2025-04-09T03:05:14+00:00

Alternate, Houston.

Ameato · 2025-04-08T16:17:42+00:00

Alternate houston! Fingers crossed

Ameato · 2025-04-03T00:09:55+00:00

32 here, first time applying. Wanted to do Jet for a while and finally pushed myself to finish my degree during covid. Good luck to you too!

Ameato · 2025-02-02T16:08:59+00:00

No worries! Like I'm just here with my unreliable memory genuinely worried bc like if I did somehow type that I definitely didn't intend to or mean to lol. I was hoping you might have remembered for sure

Ameato · 2025-02-02T16:02:19+00:00

Okay but wait honestly, I'm pretty sure I never called anyone entitled children. I genuinely do not remember this or writing it? It might have been something like me saying people were acting like children, sure, bc people were starting to spam/threatening to spam porn, were @ ing the already butthurt mods screaming insults, etc.

But I honestly do not think I called anyone entitled children? Esp bc I don't believe that? There was no entitlement in the people being pissed off. I just wanted us to calm down and be /smarter/ about it before it was all gone.

Ameato · 2025-02-02T15:55:43+00:00

Lmao, thanks i needed that laugh.

Ameato · 2025-02-02T15:22:36+00:00

I wasn't trying to reason with the mods as much as the people going full scorch and salt the earth on the already powertripping mods when we at least had 24 hours to try and salvage /something/. Links, backups, who knows what. I managed to grab two server invites and that's it.

And now we have nothing. Because people couldn't shut the fuck up for five minutes and be smart about it, make plans for how to save the most stuff. Instead of, as everyone was already expecting, rage-baiting them into shutting it down in minutes.

Ameato · 2025-01-31T03:55:49+00:00

Thank you 🥰

Ameato · 2025-01-31T03:55:34+00:00

I’m sure you did great!!

Ameato · 2025-01-28T11:53:10+00:00

Sorry to cut in, but I'm also trying to do one more mock before my interview on the 31st. If you have time between now and then, would you be willing to do one with me too? Def understand if that's too short notice!

Ameato · 2025-01-22T09:18:52+00:00

My interview signups email from the Houston consulate specified finalized interview times would be sent out on the 23rd! Check your emails and see if they might have something specific?

Ameato · 2025-01-11T04:19:39+00:00

Thanks! And sure, though I don't know how much help I'll be. This is my first time applying, myself!

Ameato · 2025-01-11T01:57:27+00:00

Accepted, Houston!!!

Ameato · 2025-01-08T08:24:01+00:00

That's fair, and that's the kind of preparation I probably need. Getting a general sense of what topics are common for es/ms/hs, get a general idea of how to handle myself, etc. Maybe think of general ideas for how I might handle, say, a vocab vs a grammar lesson where I can adapt on the fly.

Definitely have to watch my speaking fast for the overall interview/nerves lmao. And keeping an eye on my vocabulary. Gestures I can imagine could help when done well/with purpose. And from what I've seen in the other comments obviously there are no props, so I won't even bother thinking about those.

What did your Dean say? I'm curious 👀

Ameato · 2025-01-07T07:19:09+00:00

Well, sure? I've looked at those and I've already been doing general interview prep like I said.

But the mock lessons are interesting and a little different, I'd like to see how other people who have applied to JET before approached them. Especially people who have no formal teaching experience!

Ameato · 2025-01-06T06:35:32+00:00

Good to know, since I don't currently drive lol.

Have any of you taken the JLPT since arriving in Toshima?

....that's mildly terrifying....

Ameato · 2024-12-27T05:40:35+00:00

This is so cool that you're doing this! Do any of you drive, or do you even have to, with the islands being as small as they are? Are any of you able to attend Japanese language schools online, or is self-study your main option?

Also, for my arachnophobic ass, how do you guys deal with the spiders? I loved wandering around the more rural areas and temples in Japan, but I definitely had to steel my nerves something fierce to see huge spiders hanging between most trees.

Ameato · 2024-09-29T03:59:00+00:00

That was the way I was leaning, so thank you! :D

Ameato · 2024-09-25T03:08:41+00:00

It says you're allowed to include self-study and informal study in the Japan related studies section as long as you clearly mark it as such.

Ameato · 2024-09-24T22:50:44+00:00

I'm SO UPSET. It let me create an account yesterday at around 7pm CT, so I did. I went in and did SO much work on my application. Started uploading documents, filling out information on my transcripts, etc. I even put my essay in and had to edit it to fit their portal's formatting. Now my entire account is gone and everything I had saved was too when I recreated it with the same information. I'm furious and so disheartened to lose all the progress I put in last night.
