Okay...today was a totally random day. My host aunt came to visit us from Yokohama seeing as yesterday was an important 'family day'. But that's not what I am calling 'random', what was random was all of us (host mom, sister, aunt, grandma, and me) going to Karaoke for 2 or so hours. Everyone sang a few songs and I learned that my Host aunt has an amazing voice. My host sister had a sour throat so she cracked a bit, my grandma liked the old, old Japanese slow songs, and my host mom's voice was good...but extremely loud. XD
It was fun though. We went out to lunch at a sushi bar and then dropped off my host grandma. My host aunt, sister, and I went to Jusco (a popular mall with locations throughout Japan) for a few hours and then came home. Host aunt left by subway to Nagoya eki where she caught her Shinkansen headed home. (Okay, I laughed. Shinkansen's spellcheck is 'chunkiness' XD)
I ate a breakfast style supper and am now off to study some more. I'm stuck studying these 70 pages from a vocab book for a Japanese test next week (including the other tests). There are roughly 10 or so on each page so you do the math...the worse part is that most of them, I'll probably never use. *shrugs*
