Next 2 Days of School!!! :D

The next two days of school I had class! I went to many different classes and met so many new people! My fellow peers have also stretched my knowledge of the Japanese language and I have started to write down new words and phrases in a notebook. Yesterday, I joined the Track club. I met really cool guys that enjoyed running just as much as I do and it was a lot of fun!!!! However, it has been 4 weeks since I last ran so afterwards, I was super tired!!!! Today, I had swimming class for the first time and it was a little difficult. But, I love how precise and organized the Japanese are. After school, I helped Mr. Pratt (An English teacher that is not Japanese) with talking and answering some questions from Japanese students that want to learn more english and are actually going to New Zealand as exchange students. I look forward to experiencing my first weekend in Japan!!!!!! :D

First Day of School!! :D

Two days ago, I rode a bike with Yuuki and went to school for the first time!! It was so cool!!! I met a lot of the teachers in the English department and sat in there for a while because Yuuki and everyone had to take tests and Ms. Ogawa needed to set up my classes for the next two days. Yuuki's class is making food for the school festival that is coming up so we practiced making food!! It was a lot of fun!!! Mama (Yuuki's mom) made giyoza that noght and it was so good!!!! Also, Yuuki and I watched One Piece Movie Zero!! It was really cool!!! :D

1st Day In Japan

I finally made it! :D I'm in Japan and it's so awesome!! All 3 of us went out to lunch with the members of our host families that came to pick is up! :D Mike and I both got tonkatsu. Mike also introduced me to Calpis (カルピス), an amazing and delicious drink of awesomeness! :D In addition, I went grocery shopping with my host mom! Then we had ominomiyaki!!! :D Also, I'm so tired right now!!

Korea's Pretty Cool

Good morning. We're currently waiting for our flight from Incheon to Kansai and yesterday has been crazy! We missed our flight from here to Osaka yesterday (wasn't our fault) because the previous flight was delayed. Asiana Airlines was gracious enough to let us stay the night at a hotel for free. It was a little hotel and it was very interesting to see a little bit of Korea. This morning I had kim'chi and it was really good. Mike and I are a little disappointed though because so far, no one in Korea has given us a nudge in our backs lol we're all okay and can't wait to get to Kansai and then meet our families!

Excitement!!!! :D

I'm super excited to go to Japan!!! I leave tomorrow and fly from Spokane to Seattle. Seattle to Seoul, Korea. And then Seoul to Osaka!! :D
