Today I got up and talked to mom. At about 10:20 I left to go get the train to Toyoda to visit Motegi Sensei. Motegi Sensei and Naho's husband, Riki, met me in front of the bank across from the train station. We went to KFC for take out. I had 3 pieces and some fries. I told Motegi Sensei how mom doesn't like KFC because it's guarbage. She laughed and told me not to tell her! LOL
Hey Mom!!! I ATE KFC!!!! And I liked it!! as always. LOL
After lunch we watched the olympics on tv and I got to hold Naho's baby. His name is Rion (Leon) and he's 1 month old. I got lots of pictures of him and of me holding him. He's so cute!! He's like a little rag doll, little button nose and you can do anything to him while he's sleeping and he won't wake up. He's sooo cute!
We watched tv for about 2 hours and then Riki drove Motegi Sensei and I to Hachiouji so I could go to a fishing store and buy a present for Kasai Otousan ( my host father). His birthday is on the 14th. I bought him some lures, it cost me about $17. Then we went grocery shopping for dinner. I helped make dinner, we had Curry. It was a little too spicy for me...so I had to add more rice to my bowl. I ate it all though so that's good!
Okaasan called me at one point to tell me that she had talked with my other host families and that they had decided to meet for lunch with me this coming Friday the 15th in Hachiouji at Bikkuri Donkey. That's when the battery in my phone died.... Motegit Sensei let me use her phone to call my Okaasan back. So I am supposed to meet Okaasan at her house this friday at 11:30 and we'll go to the restaurant together. Saori is going to be there too so I will get to give her the gifts I brought for her in person! I'm really happy about that. I'm hoping that Mamiko will be able to go as well. I will also be able to give Otousan his present when I go to his place before the restaurant.
The day went by fast, we did a lot of talking and gawking at the baby. We talked about my schooling, about the baby, Motegi Sensei's trip to Korea two months ago, Driving in Japan and what the various signs and marks mean....it was fun.
OH! the baby sounds like a cat...he makes all these cute little noises that really do sound like he's a cat. So they call him neko-chan (neko means cat). He's so cute! I'm so happy that I got those pictures of him.
Tomorrow I get to meet Mamiko (my host sister from the third family I stayed with here). I'm going to meet her and her friend Yoko (who I supposedly know....oops., I hope I'll recognize her when I see her.) at about 2:30 in Shibuya. I'm looking forward to it!
Well that's it for me today.
Have a good day everyone!
baby! motegi sensei,
