Mina and I are excited to go shopping today. Might spend some money... Mum told me to, so... :) Haha. Anyways, I'm also very excited to go to the Karaoke Box. Sounds like we will have a ball of a time.
Who is it who wants me to memorize the Lord's Prayer in Japanese? It didn't say who...
Manjit, the sounds here are different. Crows even squawk differently! There is a dog next door that barks a lot. You can here motorbikes riding by at all hours of the day. Fashion here is different. Lots of daring choices! It smells like... I don't really know. It's very humid, so I guess it smells like rain or something. :) The house is on the smaller side, but there is enough room to move around. Right outside the house is a green tea field, then the city (the mall included) in the distance with Mount Fuji in the background. It is so huge!
Emma, thanks for checking out my blog. :) I don't know of any trips yet, but then again, I've been here for only three days! I hope I get to see Tokyo. That would be awesome! Don't know about Tokyo Disney, though. Mum says that it is basically the same as the one in LA, which I've been to, so I won't be crushed if I don't go.
I figured out how to work the A/C, so the bedroom is warm, but manageable. I've gotten used to the heat. I've also gotten used to waking up early. I seem to get up around 5:15 every morning, but I have to wake up at 5:00 on school days! It takes two full hours to get to school!
Hope Victoria is going well. I can't wait to tell you all about my shopping expedition tonight! Or maybe tomorrow night... I don't know. :)
Your 'till the chocolate chips!

ReplyDeleteWhat has been your favourite food so far? What about Mina? What is the strangest fashion statement you have witnessed so far? Have you been to any of the corner stores? You should try niku-man. How are you managing with the ha-shi (chopsticks)? Keep your eyes out for a new pair for me, please. I am interested to hear what the schedule will be like at school. I wonder if there are any site seeing trips planned for you girls as a group. Mt. Fuji is pretty amazing isn't it? Love you lots, have fun. Mum
