japan (finally)

Sorry for not updating my blog. (forgot i had one, hehe...) Anyway, I'm in Japan now and "all is well" is an understatment. My host family is really nice. The fact that they don't understand much english means I have to speak all japanese. (we actually understand each other fairly well) In other news, i think i broke a world record. Within four days of entering the family, i turned my brohter into an otaku. Day two i showed him Code geass and Claymore and within three days he finished bouth. Thats 26h of anime. (even i can't do that, and the only thing he saw prior was DBZ and Conan) PS: the second seasson of Code geass starts on the sixth.

I'll be starting school next week so i can't wait. speaking of wich, i had a vary amusing conversation with a friend of mine over e-mail:

1) i visited my school taday. im gonna frigin die! we pray at least three times a day and have require mass two times a year. he he...we`ll see about that. hell hath no fury....on the bright side i get to keep my red hair and guaged ears. they thought my hair was natural. that makes me so happy because i want looking foreward to stripping it and since so many exchange students have guages that are too big to be taken out and look pleasant, i get to keep my guages as long as they are clear. if you`ve ever seen a guy with 0 guage you know what i mean.

2)O.K, I'm not even going to talk about your school. (the torture) but, despite this being the otaku birthplace there are suprisingly many people who are still stuck at pokemon and conan. (nick's host siblings for instance don't even know conan, i think. i recomended elfan lied. hehehe) turns out, i somtimes know more about japan then japanese people. anime excluded. (why not cut udon, what katami is, so on) anyway, it's good that you can keep your hair, but nothing is worth praying 3x a day. (that's why i hate catholic schools)
well, try to survive with minimal mental damige if you can,

3)i am not! do you hear me?! not going to pray!!!! dambit!!! i would like to see them try and make me! mwa ha ha aha!...let the blood bath begin.....anyway, im starting to relate to your observation on the japanese culture. however my host family reads manga, so they at least they have good tast in that. the anime on tv is absolutly dispicible though! and why is everyone still stuck on conan? that was popular in america for a while but not this long.

PS: conan is over 900 episodes long (yes, not 90, 900)


well her family dosen't belive so it should be fine.

I hope this makes up for not posting for a while.
