Money money money

Okay, so I want to raise £4000 to take away with me for my trip.
So far I only have £1,350.
Which means I have to save an additional £3,650 in the next  8 months.
So that's £456.25 a month. It's going to be a very long, boring and cheap year!!
I also take charitable donations XD.

Some costs I've already found:
Airfare: £520 (Return London - Tokyo) + £210 (Tokyo - Fukuoka)
JR Pass (Japan Rail Pass) - £2000 +/-
Accomodation (£15 a night average) - £1,350.
Total = £4,363

So at least I know I can afford my accommodation!!

Final part of this post:
Way back in April '10, my dad made me a deal: If I get a place at university for September 2011, he would pay for my airfare to Japan.
Now, I got my place at university, however, there has never again been any mention of this little deal.
Until Sunday morning!
I was essentially worrying about how much it would all be, and that I couldn't afford it. Then he remembered. So come January sales (yes, they apply to airlines too), I will be booking my flights to Japan. Then I HAVE to go.

Until tomorrow, ja mata!
