Oh Man, Is Anyone Still Out There?
I've been soooo freaking busy that words cannot describe fully how busy I've been. @-@
I moved on Tuesday and Wednesday, despite a horrible cold/allergy thing, and despite having to truck all of my luggage through neighborhoods, buses, and ekis. >.> At least Betsy and Nathalie were nice enough to help out. Because of course, my host mother wouldn't offer any help.
Now, here's a funny story that I'd like to spin about my host family. I had told my host mother the previous week that I was moving, and the reason I gave was that I needed to stay here until June. She was okay with it and actually talked with me about it.
This week rolls around, and I tell her that I'm moving this week (I had already told her that the previous week) and then she got angry and told me how I never gave her enough notice for anything, and was going on about it. I withstood her stupid little rampage and was like, 'whatever.' Anyway, on Tuesday, I was still really sick, and told her that it was that day that I was supposed to be moving out. She got angry, too. Whatever. She said that she was busy on Thursday because of Rei's Entrance Ceremony to Kindergarten.
O...kay? What does being busy on Thursday have to do with me moving out on Tuesday? Not like I even asked for her help. And then she started saying things like, "Why didn't you tell me sooner? You knew you were going to be staying until June from the beginning." And she started using all these words that I really had no idea what they were, and was horribly confused. Uh. No. I didn't know I was staying later until I decided that around Feb. And at that time, I was already trying to move out of your stupid house. Grr.
Anyway, I return to the house and move things into my suitcases. She seems nice that afternoon. I fill up my suitcases and get ready to leave and make the mistake of asking her if she could please carry the smallest and lightest of my suitcases the 2 minutes to the bus stop for me. Apparantly, that was a BIG MISTAKE. A simple 'no' would have sufficed, but she started going on and on about how I always ask her things too late, and that Kensuke is going to be coming home soon, and Rei just woke up...blah blah. She ended up saying, "You're just too late. You're always too late. 遅い過ぎる。いつも聞くのは遅い過ぎる。" Geeze. Okay, woman.
I left the smaller suitcase at home, and then waited for the bus. Nathalie was on it, and I fumed at her, and we were angry. GRRRR. We dropped the stuff off at my dorm, and then got lost together trying to find a secret way back to the eki, and then found a Denny's and ate dinner. XD;;
This adventure will have to be continued at a later time, as Betsy and I are hungry for lunch.
