Permanent Residency
I got a notice in the mail from Japanese Immigration telling me that my Permanent Residency Visa application was approved. Yippee! Now I don't have to pay for re-entry permits when I come home from vacation. That's one step away from becoming a full blown Japanese citizen, but don't hold your breath on that one. Come on Canada, don't be jealous. I still love you too.
On a completely unrelated note, I'm currently enjoying these Italian potato chips made with extra virgin olive oil and they're not half bad.
Congratulations on getting your permament residency approved. One thing, though: I think you still need to pay for a reentry permit every 3 years. At least I know I still do, even though I've got permanent resident status.

Oops, my mistake. I'm not sure why I thought that was so, but thanks for pointing it out.
