So we arrived in Michigan last night. We had an hour flight to Hong Kong, a 14 hour flight to Chicago, and a 45 minute flight to Kalamazoo. United left my luggage in Chicago so I had to borrow clothes from Al and Maiki. Al, Maiki, and I got to our foster family's house last night. Their house is really nice. It has two fire places, two living rooms, a gym, and stuff. The three of us share a room with a bunk bed and a queen-sized bed. We have our own tv too and there's wi-fi! We live in this small suburban town, it's so like the movies! It feels like we're really in some American family. Kanina, we had to go to the vet coz "our" cat, Nova, needed her shots. We were even in the room with Nova when she got her shots. The vet was so pretty pa, Maiki and I wanted to take her picture, haha. So we're leaving in about 10 minutes to go to the mall. Tita Beth, our foster mother, is gonna leave us in the mall while she goes to a host family meeting. We have to get our own dinner and then we're free to do whatever we want. Tiff and Mars share the same backyard as us. Their house is literally right behind ours haha. And Isabel and Gianna are near us too, we might carpool pa to the games.
We had our first practices today and it was sooo hot. We had practice in the morning and then had lunch, then practiced again in the afternoon. Apparantly, the guys who cut the grass in the field are rather hot, so we had nice scenery. Tomorrow we're gonna go on a limo ride through downtown, then we get our uniforms.
Our foster brother, Michael is in our room now. We were playing a board game with him. Ok our other foster brother, Joseph just came in. They finally know our names haha.
It's such a cool experience to live with another family, especially in another country, with another culture. I almost feel like I'm living in Tree Hill. Hopefully there'll be some Nathan Scotts in the mall!
