Thank you so much for listening in with us over this past year. As we reached our goal of creating for 1 year, we're taking an indefinite break to see if this is something we'd like to continue in the future.

What is Greek life? What is a "サークル?" In today's episode, we have a fun and in depth conversation about our experiences in University between USA and Japan. We compare everything from living situation, tuition, social life, and more!

[FYI] there are two parts in the episode I (Sakura) would like to clarify:

1, When I mentioned the word "pre-game," the word I actually meant to use is "Tailgate."

2, The actual main difference between community college vs (4-year) University is that community colleges offer an Associate's degree which can be completed in 2 years. While it is common for students to attend CC for a few years to save money due to the drastically lower cost, they typically do so as they are able to take accredited courses to transfer into a four-year degree at universities.

While we have an episode focus on making a career change, this episode focuses more on getting a position that you don't have experience in yet and how to get yourself un-stuck in your current role.
