Heated Toilet Seats are the Bane of my Existance.

September 27, 2008

Hey, at least the title isn`t overly boring. I`m sure at least some people reading this got a laugh out of it. Though the mini-rant about it will come later in this (sure to be a mile long) post. So, because it`s sure to be a mile long, I`m putting it under a cut.

More General Things (Because I Suck At Making Decent Titles)

September 21, 2008

I`ve moved host families! I really like my new family. The mom and dad are really nice and funny. Shiho, my host sister (who`s in class 1-A), is a lot like me. Then the one of the older brothers who still lives at home, Ryouma, is nice (even though he doesn`t really talk much). The [...]

For Those Who Don’t Know (And a Random Little Thing)

September 18, 2008

For those who don’t know (and that includes you, Grandma. Haha.), the link to my Youtube account is in the sidebar on the left of the main blog of this site. I’d take a screenshot, but I’m lazy. But the link says ‘Video Blog (My Youtube)’. It’s the third link in the ‘My Blog’ (which [...]

A Bit of a Story, Host Family Things, and a Video Blog!

September 17, 2008

Okay. I’ll start with the story, even though it has to do with the video blog. Basically what’s going to be in this entry is what I talk about in the video blog, but maybe a bit different? And a bit more detailed, since a bit more on the story has happened since I put [...]

Just A Random Post

September 15, 2008

Well, because it seems like my mom is going to think I’m kidnapped if I don’t update even when I don’t have anything interesting to update about, here I am.
With nothing much to talk about.
Today I don’t have school, because in Japan it’s “Respect for the Aged Day”. And then next week on the 23rd [...]

Confessions Of A Foreign Exchange Student

September 10, 2008

Okay. My titles are really getting lame… I guess I’ll give a basic rundown of what’s happened since I last updated? (Whenever that was? Well, I know it was before the gaijin outing I went on, so I’ll start with that.)
On Saturday after school (yes, there is school on Saturdays. But only a half day.) [...]

I Think I’m Turning Japanese

September 4, 2008

Yeah, I know, it’s really lame to use a song title. But, yeah…
Since my last post I’ve started going to Japanese school for real. As in classes and everything. Every morning I take the 7:35 train from Goushi station to Isesaki station, switch trains, and go from Isesaki station to Komagata station. After that is [...]

I’m a Japanese School Girl

September 1, 2008

Today was my first day of school, ya~y! Well, not really. I just sort of went and then introduced myself three different times and then left. Though it was interesting either way.
I got up at 6, using the alarm on my Nintendo DS (who would think it would come in handy that way?), and went [...]
