I had a few minor panic attacks on the plane, but I needn't have worried so hard. An eleven hour plane ride and an hour and a half bus ride later, I arrived at my host family's house safe and sound.
It's very hot here, and things such as sitting on the ground take getting used to. Even things like the shower and the toilet take getting used to. Earlier, I showed the scrapbooks I had brought of my family and friends to Mama-san (my host mother) and Fuka-chan (the 12 year old daughter). They enjoyed them very much. After pronouncing the pictures of me as a little kid "kawaii!" and the pictures of my cousin Steven and friend Jeremiah "kako ii, nee!" I got to see photos of them.
This afternoon, we're going to Universal Studios Japan. School doesn't start for a couple more days.
Well, wish me luck (though Mama-san did give me good luck tea at breakfast) and I'll see you at the next post!
Wait, did they just say Jer was cute?
ReplyDeleteI am so glad to hear you got there safe! I miss you already! Please email! I hope you're having a wonderful time! Good luck! Love you! *hugs*
(actually Mom said): I agree you are still kawaii, and I'm hoping Steven and Jeremiah can feel complimented as well!
ReplyDeletelove, Mom (who needs to use Bram's gmail account until I set up my own system/email for posting comments)
I miss you loads!
ReplyDeleteKakoii means cool or good looking. So yes, they can! My host family thinks Steven is very kakoii.
