SHIYUN IS BACK FROM 3WEEKS JAPAN AND SHE ABSOLUTELY LOVES IT!the whole trip is simply too long to recount everything!2 weeks hamamatsu was incredible! yurika was sweet and nice and she had a really cool team of softball friends! like aya, kaho, hitomi, nanami... they were really great. japan schools are really more relaxed than here. they just have like homework which can be done in a day. and projects to them are like... non-existent? so when i was doing projects on the comp she asked me what i was doing and i found it quite hard to explain. hahai have gotten used to the いただきます!ごちそうさまでした!いってきます!いってらしゃい!ただいま!おかえり!thing. and all the あのさ~ 知らん thing. WAHAHA. can't say that my jap really improved but i learnt quite alot of things. like お前気もい!is the worst thing you can ever say to a girl. thanks, kimura jun.japanese schools are smaller but they have some really good-looking ones in there. johnny potential, shirotayuu lookalike, kimurajun, ishikawa... but unfortunately most of them have quite a bad attitude. oh well. school festivals are really really cool. its really like what you see on tv. and i'm really glad my host had an oniichan so i could go to a koukou and see their school festival. it's FUN and you get to lug alot of candies home. i miss hamamatsu. its the nice suburb town which is relaxing and fun. and it was sad to part with my host. tokyo was different though. it was always a mad rush, keeping track of time and stuff like that. but still with the group it was interesting and hilarious at times. i gotta say the bunch of us were quite... interesting together. HAHA. at least i got to go to harajuku! and see lolita ppl and shopshopshop! and asakusa, and disneyland! loved that. sat around 16-17 rides in 10h, PLUS shopping! and i got to eat cinammon churros. =) it's really different when you're out with friends. the highness is in the air. disneyland's night scene is really very pretty, its so pretty you could cry. not the first time there but its always a new experience. SO. here i am back in singapore. with the homework. and SIAs. but japan was so memorable, with the stuff you learn and the friends you make. rarh. hosting japanese students in end july! お楽しみ!i WILL go back again. and probably visit hokubu!and so, i never regretted my choice of japan over CAP. i mean, i don't know how CAP would be like but japan was definitely awesome. working on my CLEP xiao shuo. )=shiyun.
