6 Days to go~!

Only 6 more days to go~! I can't believe it's getting close. The other day I received a letter from my host family! Each one of them wrote a letter to me and sent me some pictures of everyone! ^^ They look very nice and I feel like I'm going to have a lot of FUN!!!! Since I've gotten their letter I've been emailing with them when I can and they keep telling me to hurry and come to Japan www. My little sister yui wants to play tennis when I get there and my little brother kazu wants me to teach him my favorite games.
They all seem so cute and full of energy!


Today I came home to a surprise again..  MY JAPANESE CELL (ケイタイ電話)arrived!! It seems pretty easy to use, the menu is all in English and I've figured out how to text in Japanese, take a picture, set alarms and so on. I definitely like how sleek and lite weight it is.

Today I also decided to start packing and doing laundry~ I have a lot of clothes so I'm hoping everything will fit! lol I'm hoping that I don't forget anything ~!!!!!!!!



Well till next time! 
まったね~!

The count down begins~!

Hey Guys :) I'm starting this blog to keep a sort of diary of all of my experiences in Japan. In less then 2 weeks I will have finished packing my bags and boarding a plane for  Japan~! To say I'm excited is an understatement! I still have a lot to do before I'm ready to leave. Right now I'm working on getting presents together to give to my host family and my friends.

I'm actually leaving 10 days earlier than the rest of my group so this should be interesting and fun. ^^ www 
I'm hoping to meet up with a lot of the friends I've made from Earlham, OU and from hosting these past couple of years. I'm also planning on going shopping and get several necessary things like: a hair dryer, hair straightener, clothes, etc.. Of course I'm bring a lot of clothes that I already own (I just want new stuff hehe), but as for the hair stuff this way I'll have more room to bring stuff  and also they will work better with the voltage in Japan.

For the next 5 months I will be writing about all the new and interesting things that I experience in Japan. I'll also be posting pictures so you can get an idea of what exactly I'll be talking about! ^^ haha
Feel free to comment and ask questions any time! I hope you find something interesting here!

Well till next time~! まったね~
Rosa!
