So I had my first orientation yesterday! J It was soo much fun! I
got to meet the other 5 exchange students! Julia: Brazil, Bruno: Brazil,
Francois: France, Carlos: Mexico, Callie: Canada! I had a great time with them. I haven’t done the no talking for a month
with my family at home, but I’m dropping chatting unless they are in Japan with
me, due to the only way we can communicate! J I miss my home, I will be the first to admit
it! I’m not ashamed!! I love my home and my life in new York, but for me it was
realizing that going to Japan has been a dream of mine for a long time and
having it finally come true is an incredible chance, I can’t spend it on the
computer worrying about what my friends are doing! Compared to them I’m doing a
lot more interesting things! J
I am slowly learning to hang with the family and enjoy the time! I had a lot of coffee last night and so I was
kind of wound up, but my host mom, and sister had some good laughs with me;
like the word for to buy is cau pronounced cow! So Miho (my host sister) and I
said we are going to buy a cow; cau cow! J I had a great time. I do want to say I am going to try to stop
responding or commenting…so if you comment don’t expect that I will comment
back! Same with chatting! I love you
guys but, I have to do this! I really appreciate
everyone support of going abroad! A big thank you goes out to my parents, and
sister! I had my “first day” but I only
ended up having half a day! J
I got my schedule and it is crazy! I
have biology and Chemistry….I have 2 maths’s, I have 2 English’s: one all about
like translating between Japanese and English, and then the other all grammar! I am enjoying my time, but not the public
transportation, got lost today! UGH!!! I hate buses! :/ I lost my great grandmother the other day/
today, so that has been a little tough today for me! I know she is in a better place, due to the
fact that she couldn’t remember who anyone was, I remember we would stop in
when we were in the town she was in and she couldn’t remember my mom her granddaughter
say nothing about the great grandchildren! I cried every time we said good bye! I will slowly get over this but for now it is
on my mind! Well I will sign off now!
Sayonara,
