Wow, so many comments. I feel so loved. :) First of all, Happy Birthday Bella! Hope you had a great one and got everything that you wanted. For Daisy, yeah, Japanese TV is really, really weird. Especially the dramas and kid shows. The supposedly tragic dramas are actually the funniest thing on TV. Especially since I can`t understand a word they`re saying. Oh, yeah. I found Shugo Chara. It plays at 9:30 on Saturday. For Anna: Sorry you don`t like big high schools, poor Anna. :( I don`t get how ping pong is a sport either, but whatev. It`s really fun going to a Japanese high school (I`ve only gone twice) even though it`s big. Maybe I like it `cause I don`t have to actually participate in any of the classes(yet, as I`ve said, I`ve only gone twice.). School might be cancelled tomorrow, `cause of the Typhoon. Also, I don`t have school next week since everyone else is testing so I`m not sure what I`m gonna do.........
The train ride is actually really relaxing even though it`s long. Everyone`s almost always either sleeping, reading, or texting(ugh, I hate texting, it`s so RUDE. It`s the most annoying thing. It always puts me in a bad mood, don`t know why.).The train only gets crowded right before Keisei Tsudanuma and Matsudo and other major stations. Everytime I get on a train I think I`m on the wrong one. Sooo stressful. Which reminds me, today I saw two Americans on the train on my way home from school. There was an overweight white man and a thin African American. They looked sort of lost, but they were so cute and funny. (not cute as in good looking, the other cute.) They really made me laugh. One really doesn`t see very many foreigners here. They just aren`t that common. So my school is a really good school, they have TONS of teachers who speak English. Also, the uniform is way cuter than most, but I look like a total catholic schoolgirl in mine. *sigh* All the Japanese girls look so much cuter. They`re all also in pretty good shape. *sigh again* So I`ve made some friends: Ami-chan, Lena-chan, Lina-chan, Asumi-chan, Toki-chan, Mae-chan, Yuna-chan, and Matsuda-kun. And there are some others but their names continue to elude me. I`m taking Japanese twice a week at school while the others are taking English. This weekend I went to an AFS orientation. There I met Japanese girl scouts(who actually looked cute in their uniforms). I had to give a speech about my country and sing the national anthem. I hated that. Though I met some nice people. Cindy and Marcella from Germany and Piyumi from some country that they speak Swahili(or something like that). I also became friends with So-chan. She`s a Japanese girl who is going to Australia as an exchange student. She speaks English really well, especially for a 15 year old. Um, what haven`t I talked about.......Natto is really icky, I didn`t like it. If you could send me an ipod that would be great. I really miss music. You don`t notice but there is almost always music playing in america. But if you send me an ipod, send it with some songs already on it. It may be hard to buy new songs. I also want a stuffed animal :( But I`ll just buy one. I`ve been buying charms since I came here, I bought a hello kitty, a stuffed squid, a japanese protection charm, and a stuffed dog. I hung them on my purse. They sell charms EVERYWHERE. There was one more thing that I wanted to say, what was it. Oh, yeah. Everyone here loves disney. They love disney channel and singers and products and disney world. One of the first Questions I`m asked when I meet someone is if I`ve been to Disney world. They also like high school musical. they played the music at my japanese highschool. There is a bakery down the street called Tincar bell. Yup, they like it. They also like Tom Cruise. Well this is extremely long. i think I`ll end it here. Also, to my family. I love you and miss you. I also miss my friends. I`ll blog again soon. And I can`t remember if i`ve already said this but I loved your comments. Bye-bye!
