Dear Diary.

It's like the old saying; "Go big or go home." In my case going home isn't exactly an option at the moment and it won't be one for a while... So I guess I'm going big.

I was given an opportunity to experience a once in a life time event where I could live in a world literally filled with wonder, magic something out of a fantasy novel or a Japanese anime. And naturally there's a catch. This said world, Gensokyou or something like that is basically an old school Japanese fantasy world. Meaning it had little to no electricity, no Wi-Fi and an old school sewage system with possible unsanitary living conditions, But hey it literally has magic and wonder so that's a win right? To be honest the thought of living in a place like that didn't bother me too much, well maybe just a little. After all, the great outdoors, hiking and camping is kind of my jam.

Packing for a long term trip like is was a pain in butt, especially when I was under a time constraint. Who does this Blondie think she is? Just because she has a mature pretty face and a slightly intimidating aura doesn't mean she can boss me around. Anyway, planning for such a move in such a short notice was quite the challenge. How much luggage was I going to need? How cumbered was I going to be? How was this affect my mobility on the move? So on and so forth.

I'm not sure what I was thinking at the time but I think it was something in the lines of stick to the essentials.

Clothes, small electronics, and camping tools. I think I made the right choice in going light. There might come a time where I'm going to regret not bringing more, but when that day comes I guess I can improvise.

Now going through the.. Portal? Gateway? A gap? A spooky door decorated in eyeballs and ribbons or whatever was kind of weird... A lot of tingly sensation mixed with a light numbness. You know how your legs fall asleep when you lose circulation? Kind of like that but it's your entire body.. I think I alsk tasted something sour in my mouth too.. ew...

On top of the "full body leg asleep syndrome" I heard a voice. Now that I think about it, I think it was my voice and it sounded like it was pre recorded on a really old school tape recorder and was being played back in repeat. "Great Sinister Footwear Chronicles" and it's apparent directions being played back. Hearing my voice from another source sounds so weird..

Now let's quickly catch you up to speed my dear Diary. According to this Blondie who's apparently named Yukari, and going through the spooky door that's apparently named the Gap altered my body and tied all the loose end on my world. I can communicate with the resident of this world without any effort.

I don't know how speak Japanese by any means, but every time I speak English the folks hear it in their own language and vise versa. On top of that going through the gap gave me some affinity to magic. Yukari said it's a side effect.. should I be worried? Wish it made me more fit to be honest.. Maybe a bit taller but I guess I can't win them all.

Anyway the moment I had my heading via a map, I made my way Scarlet devil Mansion. It took me like 5 hours to get to the Mansion what can I say, reading foreign maps are not my strong suite also I had to stop a lot to a lot to hide from little girls that were flying around. Truly this is a world of magic and stuff. Wait.. now that I think about it that Yukari lady could have just dropped me off at the gate.. She's kind of a jerk..

And now here I am. Getting a job from a vampire named Remilia and starting to make a living in the Scarlet Devil Mansion to super slowly unravel my master plan that was planted in my head by me. I guess I can call it a self inception.. unless.. Yukari.. my head hurts.

What was my job again? Oh yeah.. I'm pretty much babysitting her little sister.. I'm not the best with kids but she's apparently like 500 years old or something. Huh.. do Vampires mentally age slowly or something? Anyway I'll be starting my job in a couple days. Wish me luck Diary!
