Current Host Family: Minami
Counselor Name: Nishiyama-san
I’m doing really well these days. I’m very healthy and
loving life at school and with my friends....
School is
amazing! Of course it’s boring like school in any country is. I’m so lucky to have
such great friends that make school interesting for me. Most times during
classes, I study my languages, read, or do nothing. I joined Japanese tea
ceremony club, which is a perfect club for me. I sit in a room, drink tea, eat
some snacks, and chat with my friends. I feel so accepted by my classmates. My
class is like one big family.
I went to a
Rotex picnic in Kyoto a couple weekends ago. It was really nice, and the Rotex
members were all so nice. I last met Nishiyama-san at the monthly rotary meeting.
He’s taking me to a tea ceremony at a temple soon, I’m really excited! I did
receive my allowance, it was roughly 90 dollars, because of my cellphone bill. My relationship with my host club is
excellent, and with my counselor excellent.
I haven’t
done anything super exciting recently. I’m just really content with spending a
lot of time with my friends, and learning Japanese. It has become a lot harder
as I have advanced. I think a lot of times the older people around me expect a
lot more out of me than the rest of the exchange students in my group. That’s a
bit of a burden. All in all, I’m really happy with my time here so far.
