Deleted all my old blog posts - only keeping the ones that are exchange-related. 8)
Shall I do a little intro? Nah, I never know what to say in those.
How about a brief overview of my host family + host school etc.
Firstly, I am going on exchange to Japan for three months from November 18th - February 12th 2010. (Yes, I miss out on Valentines Day in Japan - nooooooo~ D: lol)
Host family
First of all, I'm so grateful for them accepting me! :')
Sooo, I'm going to be living in Hirakata City (between Osaka and Kyoto) with my host parents and, ...my two host sisters! Shall be interesting to see what it would be like to have a sister~ (although I wanted a brother as well, but I shan't get too greedy xD )
My older sister, Ayaka, lives at the university campus. She's been on exchange to Australia before, for 11 months - so I'm not sure what to get her. :/
Younger sister, Chika, looks so cute! - haha, she's 16 & she's in the dance club at school. That's all I know about her so far lol and yes, I'm going to go to her high school :) ...I promise I'll try not to follow her around too much just because I have a feeling I'm going to be a loner at school. ;____:
If everything goes as planned, I'm going to be staying with this host family for the full length of my exchange. ^^
Host school
Kyoto Tachibana High school ^^
Private co-ed school located near Momoyama - (about an hour of travel)
The uniform is not too bad - not the typical sailor uniform depicted in manga/anime (;__:) haha, let's just say it looks quite - sophisticated?
School runs from 8:35am - 4:30pm on Mondays to Fridays, with an exception on Tuesdays with school ending on 3:40pm (yay for early day!) There's also school on Saturday - which goes from 8:35am to 12:40pm.
I have to bring 3 pairs of shoes for school. Black leather shoes, indoor sports shoes and outdoor sports shoes. T_T I'm going to buy a new pair of black leather shoes because my one is...dead. & I thought I didn't need to wear it ever again.... lol
& that's about it. :D
I have to start packing and buy some omiyage for my host family ;3
じゃ、またね～
