Right now I'm hanging out with my sister and my foreign sister. We went shopping today, I spent way too much but I think every once in awhile you need to indulge, especially when you haven't went clothes shopping in a long time. My mom gave me like $50 for school clothes and I spent more like $120 or $130 and I still want to go back next week for a couple other things. I'm soooo bad! But it was fun. It was a little awkward with Sakiko but she would just go off on her own and do her own shopping. I felt bad because a lot of the time, me and Jessie would be off together because we have similar taste but it seemed alright in the end. Sakiko even found a couple of things she liked. She's nice but the language barrier is hard to get past, I wouldn't want to have a one on one conversation because I would be afraid I couldn't relate what I want to say to her but lukily Jessie was helpful in that department. I guess it's a little harder for me since I've only seen her twice but the rest of the family has had time to adapt and learn how to relate to her. Anyway, it's not just her, most of the time I feel 'uncomfortable' around anyone who I can't or who can't understand me. For example: old people, young people, slow people and foreign people. This does not mean that I dislike these people, on the contrary but it's just that my verbal and communicational skills are lacking.
I'm not going to say anything else. School starts in a couple weeks, that just doesn't seem right! It feels like I just got done with school. I suppose it should be good for me, to get me out of the house and mingling with people.
See ya. jc.
