omfg, im alive! and i am still 18! wee for me! :D I have been horribly busy since my birthday and i am pooped.
actually, im kinda still super pooped right so im gonna run through this and go lay down cuz im a lazy bum.
The day after my birthday I went to my 1st host families house, Murata's, to stay for the next couple days. It was soooo nice to be back there, i absolutly adore that family to death and いいきもち~! But the entire time i was there I ended up being Remon's playmate for 2days straight also and that nearly killed me also. nothing like having to entertain a 7yo for hours on end. But it gave me much practice for Faye when i get home- i really was a bad big sister then..
But it was so much fun there. Okaasan and I went to the Showa big kite festival for a few hours. but it was kinda not worth it cuz there was no wind that day. haha but it was such a nice hot day out and we sat on a big hill and watched tint kites in the sky. so so nice feeling.
next day host mom, sister and her family and i went to Kamakura by train. I saw the big old Buddah statue, took pretty pictures and whatnot. Then we took the old local train to local cities to see more. ..BIG MISTAKE! it was Goldeen Week here in Japan and it was packed! i dont think i have ever seen SO many freakin people in one place in my life- i take back what i said about Tokyo at night. this was just insane. i nearly passed out from being squished so hard on the train rides back and forth. @_@;; We ate lunch at resturaunt near ocean and saw pretty temple.
I had to rush home quickly on friday morning to finish packing up everything to move at 2pm that afternoon. uuug, only an after being an exchange student can i say i think i have gotten the luggage phobia of weight limits(an actual comic excists for this, lol)
anyways, Kamakura-san took me to my new family, Kimizuka. they live in Kasukabe and right near station. Their house is kinda weird but I got the Japanese room! YES! i finally live japanese style! though, after a coupl nights im not to happy about the futon deal. those are to big to deal with every morning and night.
The family is really nice. Mom, dad(dentist), son and daughter (in their mid twenties). I feel kinda awkward with them all though. but it just new family feel.
Last night was the Psycho le Cemu concert. all im gonna say for now (cuz im pushed for time and that deserves its own entry), that was the freakin cooolest concert ever! and we all cryed at the end. PlC forever! (and i kinda got illegal video clips of it. lol..)
Today was all day at lame D2770 meeting. Jose(Mexico) gave his farewell speech. im to emotional and think to much i think. i got teary eyed cuz 1.one of us is leaving now and 2.we are all leaving soon..
AL! thankyou for the freakin sweet birthday shit! i loved the birthday cake of mustard sandwitchness and fushigi yuugi goods and that adorable card. you didnt have to ToT i am SO not worth the luv. *hugs*
school tomorow. blek.
