Count Down: Officially 5 Months




Today is my mother's birthday!

I have been watching many YouTube videos about Japan. I'm so excited! It feels hard to contain it sometimes, I feel like I have not stopped talking about it~
Some of the channels I have been watching are Rachel&Jun, Chris Abroad, Sharla in Japan, and a couple random videos from various collaborators. I'm going to try my very best to video my time there but my top priority is this blog <3
So far I have a date for the exchange meeting that I will have to attend on April 6th and I have heard back from four of the twelve scholarships I have applied to. Of the four I have received one, so pretty good odds so far and every little bit counts.
I have been practicing writing Hiragana and mostly have been focusing on learning to write them. I have applied a little to reading and installed the Japanese keyboard on my phone. I hope to be able to at the very least be able to recall the Hiragana and maybe Katakana. My friend let me barrow his textbook that he used when learning. I really need to start reading it!
Only five more weeks of the semester and then I have a ten week summer semester. I'm excited to start packing but it's a bit too soon for that (=^o^=)

I Am In Japan!

Good evening! It's currently Sunday night and about 10pm at the time I am typing this. The past few days have been a roller coaster, and the only thing on my mind has been trying my best to document it all. I keep getting little snippets of video, I just can't do it all justice. Japan is already a super strange and interesting place. I'm American so everything is always strange but here's a small list of oddities I have noticed over the past two-ish days. -Having to ask for bags at the supermarket -A lot more floor-oriented furniture -Pachinkos -Everyone talks low and quick -There is a remote for my lights (pretty neat) -Crunchyroll is restricted in Japan -Convenient store food is actually pretty amazing Honestly, I woke up feeling terrible. I was sick, homesick, and miserable. But, like all good daughters, I listened to my mommy and talked to some of the people I traveled here with. I was a sobbing puking mess, but it was okay. I'm okay. I'm not going to lie ...
