Munch munch

Whoo today I had curry.... at the Tokyo Hilton Hotel. Isn't that so cool.
I went to lunch at the Suganami Rotary Club today, i was so tired i actually ended up ordering a coffee before the lunch and drank another one for dessert, isnt that strange. I left school after the first two lessons... becouse the third was sports and i didnt have time to change and then change back.
After the lunch i hurried back to school, becouse today was my first time at the schools badmington club. Im so tired now... the club today was from 2.30pm till 5.15pm but it was so much fun and everyone is really nice. It wasnt all "PRACTISE PRACTISE PRACTISE!!!" everyone was laughing and smiling even though we were practising very hard. Im very tired now, but i feel strangely light... eventhough i had a huge dinner when i came back...at the start everyone ran 3.6kms... i only ran like.... 600m x_x but every time im gonna run a little more.. becouse my health just isnt good enough yet. After the running i waited for everyone and did a good strech. At around 3.oopm we all went into the hall to practise badmington. I cant wait for Tuesday to go again. I have club on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday... but i can rarely go on a Saturday ^^"

ok... so i actually talked to Syu instead of mailing him today XDD that was fun ^^" im so strange, but hey im really shy. Oh and Yukke bought our consert tickets today <33 Next month we're going to a consert, there are 11 bands performing (including; Wizard, UnsraW, SCREW, zorro and many more). the tickets we're only like 3,500yen... which is about 30€, and our ticket numbers are like 189 and 190 (or 190 and 191 im not sure what number Yukke has). Thats like woah.

Ok im gonna stop blabbing for today... bye bye

~~Chuu~~

I had my first cup of coffee like ever today XDD at the rotary lunch i went to today...

i bet it tells how much i dont want to go home that even though i had a holiday from school for the afternoon today for after the lunch i still went to school. I feel like its much better for me to spend my time in school then at home.. becouse a) i learn japanese better if i talk to my friends then if i sit alone at home on my computer b) i dont like my host family at all c) i love my friends at school very much <33 d) if I am at school i see all my cute boys <333

Me and my friends went to karaoke today ^O^ it was one of the funniest things like ever XD and of course my host family got mad... because apparently im only allowed to study... you wish...

Lol i scared the hell out of Syu today because he called me a manizer XDD and i said that boys are delicious XDDD okay our mails are sometimes very strange... but thats what you do with good friends <3

People im sorry

I'm sorry everyone for not updating in such a long long time. but you all know me... im really, really lazy. We'll anyway... here we go.



23-24.9


School festival (bunkasai). A two day festival where every class and club partcipates in making something to show the visitors (parents, friends, random people). My class did a play which was acted out once on both days. I was suppose to be working with sound but i just ended up sitting on the floor watching the show and fanning the actors and everyone else XD The rest of the time we were basically just walking around visiting the other classes and clubs presentations and playes. We saw Romeo and Juliet, a j-rock version of Alice in Wonderland (where the cheshire cat was playing nintendo DS and Alice was reading a Foolsmate magazine instead of a book); it was the most hilarious thing i have ever seen, the brass band consert; it was amazing, and many other things. I even took pictures with my favourit boys, please check my photo albums for pictures and videos. On sunday Gabby came to visite my school, it was fun showing her to my friends. I had to have a speech at the ending ceremony... god how i hate speeches <_< but it was over quite quickly.


End of month nine




The end of the month we had holidays. Me and Rie visited Disneyland (check photo album), went on a Tokyo shopping trip and i did many other things. When school started again i was tired but happy and was eager to go to school again and see everyone. On the 28th i went to a consert, and oh my god it was amazing. For those of you who understand finnish visite to read my consert review.



Month ten

wow this month was full... on the third i visited my rotary club meeting and ate lunch there... hey it was a way to get out of school. Sometimes it seems im out of school more then in it ^^"
n the 6th i went to Harajuku with VV (exchange student from India). On the 10th I went to harajuku with Gabby and her friend (a 14-year old boy), we took purikura and went to karaoke, was such a fun day.
On the 11th me and the other exchange students visited the Tokyo Minami rotary clubs octobre party, at the tokyo hilton hotel. I was unable to see why it is such an expensive hotel. But the food was good and we got to eat alot XD.
n the 14th i went to Harajuku too, this time with Yukke. We went to karaoke and then ran out of money so we couldnt take purikura, which was sad ;__; but theres always next time.
On the 21st all the exchange students from my district and the next district met up and we all went to Akihabara, had lunch and took purikura... it was kinda scary. Heres one with only a few of the girls







After this we had a party with my host family, it was to celebrate Mayu-chans birthday and at the same time it was my leaving party. I was very sad to change families since I liked this one very very much.
Next week was exam week... i took two english exams, a maths exam, japanese exam and geography exam. Angelica (in the picture the one in the bottom left corner) came over on thursday evening and my host parents liked her very much.
On saturdcay 27th after school i went to Harajuku and Shibuya wih Rie and Natsumi. Natsumi had to leave quite early, but me and Rie spent some time in Shibuya, going to get me my new piercing, then going to karaoke, dinner and purikura. It was a fun day.
On sunday 28th we had a halloween party at Mike's english school (remember the language school from the start of my exchange), we dressed up and went trick or treating with little kids... it was very very fun. After the party we had lunch and me and Natsumi went to take purikura and hang around seiseki-sakuraoka. Heres one of the many purikura we took. Please visite my albums to see all my purikura






After hanging out with Natsumi for a little pit too long i hurried to Harajuku to meet my friends Aki and Shoho. We went to purikura and karaoke and also a little bit of shopping. Heres a purikura







On the 29th i changed families... and this is the most horrible part of my exchange so far.

Start of month 11

I try and spent as much time as i can in school and out with friends now.. since i hate being home. Every morning i must wake up at 5.20 at the latest and be in the kitchen to make breakfast for everyone at 6am. My room is like a fridge in the morning... but i am not allowed to turn on my heater. Im not allowed to go anywhere with friends after school becouse i need to study or some other crap... but i do anyway.. and i hang with them at school.
On the 2nd i went to karaoke with Ayano and Kanami XD it was really funny since Kanami is really shy and Ayano only sang songs by a japanese group called kinki kids.
On the 3rd i went to a rotary consert... i was the only exchange student there... (inbound that is) but it was a very pretty consert (three sopranos), from the consert i went straight to harajuku to meet Shu (Syu) from my class, and we wandered to Shibuya and went to karaoke XD What can i say i love karaoke. It was funny though... all Shu sung were love songs... i couldnt stop laughing about it with my friends.
On the 4th i went to Gabbys schools school festival... the trip there was kind of a flop XD I went fron shinjuku with keio new line... but i mistakinly took the express and ended up at the last stop which was in the middle of nowhere. Well i luckily got on the semi special express and got off at the right station. the next problem was that the bus reguired cash... and of course gabby had forgot to tell me... and of course I am always broke XD so she ended up paying when i got off the bus... I met many of gabbys friends, russel was there too.. he is gabbys "older brother". After the bunkasai finished we headed to the nearest town to eat. You would never think it so hard to find unjapanese food. We ended up eating curry... which i had had the day before and the same morning too. Russel ordered a level 10 curry (the hottest you can get) with natto, just to make it interesting... that it was indeed XD We then hurried to the train and took the same train with Russel almost all the way back... Gabby went the opposite way. me and Russel spent most of the train trip talking about Gabbys love life XD and i gave her some advice yesterday. LOL.

Well thats all there is now.. but i promise from now on to write everytime i do something. I promise. Becouse haha i have nothing better to do in my life XD

Jaa mata ne,
Selene <3
