Host Information

こんにちは!! Hello!!

So I have just recently got some very exciting news. I know who my host family is and I also know my school. In my family I will have a host mom, dad, and an older sister. They have 4 cats (which is fine by me since my family has 2). When I was looking at some of my forms, I noticed that my host dad is not only going to be my councilor, but he is also the president of my host rotary club.... no pressure there.



 My school is so cool. The uniforms aren't the cutest, however they are not sailor uniforms (which I am thankful for because I don't really like that type). and I was looking at their website and it looks like they have a lot of clubs so I am looking forward to that.





I must say that I am a lot more nervous then I was before. I was thinking about it the other day and I can't believe how quickly it is coming up. Only 1.5 months and then I leave! I can't wait!!!
さよなら!! Bye!!

Quick Update

こんにちは!! Hello!!
Some exciting news! I got my host city!!! It's name is Kakegawa and it is located in Shizuoka Prefecture

I have also gotten my flight tickets!
I leave on August 22. I depart from Vancouver at 6:00am (which means I have to arrive at 3am, which means we have to leave the house at like 1:30am.... it's going to be a long day). I arrive in L.A. later that morning. I will then have to spend the day at the airport because I don't leave till 3:45pm. I will then arrive in Tokyo at 7:15pm on August 23. A total of approx. 26 hrs. I'm tired just thinking about it.
