Day 3 in my stay here in Japan.
Still amazes me haha.
Right now I'm kinda bored but there's nothing I could do about it. Ai went to school and my parents are working. Tompi is here still but I'm not sure if she's over at the office or not. My parents have their own business and it's right next door. Oh, Tompi is my other host sister, age 12. That's not her real name but I totally forgot what it is because Tompi is her nickname and so that's all we call her. I start school Friday and today's only Monday. On Wednesday I have to go to the school for some meeting, I'm guessing to pick out my classes and such and to get my uniform. I saw Ai's uniform today, it's cute. -mumbles- unlike mine... But it really sucks that I won't be able to go the same school. I'm going to be all alone haha and maybe [no I probably will be] scared. It is scary. I mean she could have helped me around I'm sure. And even taken me to school. I think my otoo-san said I was going to take a bike up.
.....
A bike.
All alone.
-sigh- This sucks. I'll get used to it eventually though. And it still sucks that there's no BOYS in the school. How unfair is that? Oh, and I also met one of my okaa-san's sons. Koukai or something like that I think his name was... I'm bad at remembering names. 'Cause in the beginning when okaa-san was talking about them [in Japanese of course] that's were I got confused. I thought Koukai [or whatever his name is] was some word in Japanese, not his name, so I wasn't quite following what she was saying. So difficult. It's 11 am now. At 12 I have to go to some Rotary lunch thing. Tompi and okaa-san are taking me. haha omg I won't understand anything. I'm trying to study more, actually I was doing that before I started typing this but then I didn't feel like it anymore. Really it's just my vocab I need to work on. I'm not having much difficulty actually saying the easy sentences like, where is this and that and can I watch TV [I haven't asked that yet though haha]. I'm trying... sorta. I'm kinda lazy as most people already know haha. We are managing though. If we have difficulties they either try to figure out how to say it in english or I pull out my dictionary. It's not hard at all.
Shin-chan is really popular here. For those people who know who Shin-chan is [it's a anime on Cartoon Network for all of you who don't and it's a super weird anime] I think you'd be happy to be here if you're a huge fan. haha I know you are Kocher. The first thing they asked me when I came in their living room was "Shin-chan wa shiteru?" [Do you know Shin-chan?]. haha "Shiteru" [I know him] I answered. When I went to the book/cd/dvd/video game store yesterday there was a whole big thing of his movies. We rented one along with some other movie there. I saw Code Geass DVDs while I was there. Code Geass is one, actually it is, my favorite anime. I was excited haha. So many mangas there too. I'll have to buy one sometime. Not that I'll be able to read it...
Well, here's some news.
I just got the internet and I feel terrible right now actually. See, I didn't have the internet here at all. To get the internet my host dad had to get this super long cord to connect from his business to my room. But that wasn't enough. He then drilled a hole into his own house just to get this cord to my computer. I couldn't believe he did that! This hole isn't even that small! Not to mention im in my younger sister's room and they moved her out so I wonder how she feels about them drilling too... I feel terrible. I'm not sure if he was happy to do it... :( He didn't really seem it. He said to me then with a slight smile and in English "you owe me". I'm not sure if he's perfectly fine with the drilling. I don't even know how to thank them even more. I keep telling them they're too kind :( It's clearly not enough to express my gratitude.
Well, I guess I'll stop now. I'll probably post another later or tomorrow. OH! And I have my first vid up ^^ It's not a blog though. I'm debating whether to do blogs 'cause when they're around [which is basically all the time] I'll feel awkward talking to myself haha.
