１月のlove song
January is slipping by so fast. Its a bit intimidating to tell you the truth. Im using my phone to post a mail this time so bare with me.
on the 11th we went to the freezing yoyogi park to practise soranbashi which is a famous japanese dance. It was so cold though. And the outbounds came like 2 hours late. So me, Gabby, Fernando and Annabelle excused ourselves a bit earlier hahaaa.
The 12th was a Rotary consert that we all took part in. And thats where we had to perform soranbashi. We all (excluding the boys) met up at 10 to practise. Except that i was late, because i took the wrong train. It was actually kinda hilarious(→o←)ゞ proves how much of an idiot i am doesnt it. Well anyway after the concert was over i ended up going to karaoke with Natsumi inspired my the music the school bands played at the concert. We sang KAT-TUN of courseo(^▽^)o there was a huge window in our room and people stopped to look in ヾ( ´ー｀)
well anyway the next day i went to harajuku with Gabby and we waited in line for 3 hours to get into the Jhonnys shop there. Once we got in i bought so much.
Haha theres a finnish exchange boy in my school though hes going home in a few days. Anyway our japanese teacher gave us tickets to kabuki which we tried to go to on wednesday but failed to get tickets. So we went to the movies together. We went to see Im legend which turned out to be sort of horror aka big mistake for me who is affraid of anything even remotely horror. Well we went to kabuki the next day and i ended up sleeping most of the time (^_^;)ゝ
gah the 15th, 18th and 19th school we practised our show for sundays talent show in yoyogi park. It was so cold (;_;) but i survived.
We had a big rotary event on sunday. Where we had a talent show and danced soranbashi. But we only had 15 mins to eat so i couldnt eat any dessert. My group berformed SMAPs "sekai ni hitotsu dake no hana" and a finnish song "paivansade ja menninkainen". It was great fun. We practised from 10 in the morning and i went home at 7 in the evening. What a long day it was (·ω·)/
after school on monday i went to harajuku with a friend of mine from the temple: Eri. It too was great fun.
and on that day a boy i like sent me a message after i had sent him a "do your best in football" message. His message was like "thank you <3<3" it had animated hearts. That confused me a lot haha. (-.-;) damn you japanese boys and damn you valentines day.

Your bodyline
MINNA KONNICHIWA
and now you answer, konnichiwa.
Okay so I've been addicted to this one song really badly. Here check it out peoples:
Okay so my school started on the eight but since everyone had exams i got out of school at about ten am. And then decided to head to harajuku before lunch. Well i was walking down the almost empty harajuku street and crossed the road at the traffic lights near Laforet (shopping mall). There were two guys standing at the same lights... both with hats and sun/glasses on. One of them had blond just over shoulder length hair and the other darker hair...well I've come to the conclusion that I saw Kamenashi and Teguchi from KAT-TUN that day at harajuku, and i am 100% positive it was really them. Well later the same day (after I had had lunch) I went back to Harajuku this time with Gabby, and we went to drool in the idol shops, went to karaoke (and peered into every room to see if kame and teguchi were there). Oh and we ate a crepe too, i love those things. I guess its because i like sweet things hahaha.
Oh yesterday i found out what the discusting smell is that sometimes takes over the house. Its when they cook fish in the inside grill. I Tell you guys IT STINKS.
Well anyway, today after school i went to yoyogi park with Gabby, Annabelle, Annie, Fernando, Katharina, Rie, Miyuko, Natsumi and Makiko, to practise Soranboshi, which is a japanese dance and which we need to perform this saturday. Terrible stuff i tell you. Well me and gabby and Annabelle and Fernando left early, because it was cold and we had been there for like an hour and a half before all the japanese came... and we were like... not our fault you guys are an hour and half late.
lol okay, im blabbing about useless things again. I have a operation called "ignore all the boys in the class" going on now. Lol i laugh at how much Shu tries to get my attention, he smiles at me and tries to make me look at him... and if i look at him i just look straight through him XD its funny, and yes i know its mean... but whatever. His own foult.
Im gonna be quiet now okay, sorry guys XD

In the evenin i went to the embassy of Finland for a Independance Day party, and met alot of people and talked to alot of people. It was fun. I ate finnish food too. On the 7th I had my Japanese exam in the morning and after returning home and eating lunch i grabbed my bags and headed to my first host family for the weekend. I had missed them. They'r so great ^__^ On saturday it was a holiday from school, possibly because of the exams, but i was not on holiday, i had orientation at the Olympic Centre, everyone got to know what country they get to go to next year, all the outbounds that is. Nobody is going to Finland which was a shock... but neither is anyone going to Mexico. I dont get it, but whatever. We had our own little party after everyone got to know and everyone had brought a xmas gift for someone. Mine was for Makiko and i got my gift from Natsumi, its called secret santa. We danced and ate alot. And one of the ROTEX dressed in a christmas tree costume that had candy stuck to it that we could grab XD it was fun. After the orientation me, gabby and Natsumi went to karaoke in Shinjuku, which was fun. On the ninth I slept until like 2pm. I was very tired, dont blame me, and its impossible to get a good nights sleep in this temple.
Dec 10th-16th
I returned home after school, i had a geography exam and oral communication exam. On the 11th I had my healths exam. On the 12th I went to my rotary clubs christmas party and watched old men dance flamingo. That was hilarious... seriously. You guys have no idea XD On the 13th was my current host familys rotary clubs christmas party. There was a pirate magic person there XD it was hilarious. His assistant was cute though. On the 15th I went to Disneyland with Maki (Rotex), Rie, Urara (outbounds), Gabby, Annie and Lucy (inbounds), it was really fun eventhough for the whole day my tummy was killing me. From Disneyland i went to Gabbys host family for the night and the next day we headed to harajuku. It was all great fun.

I postet my christmas gifts and letters to Finland on the 17th, that was expensive. On wednesday after school i went to Harajuku with Gabby and Annabelle.

Though on the second i was told that i need to get out of the house and not just stay inside so i went to the packed harajuku which was scary. I was there for 30mins and came back, through much trouble. On the 3rd i went to my 3rd host familys house for dinner. They live in the middle of nowhere but are very nice and fun. It was alot of fun. On the 4th me and gabby went to Harajuku and got our hair done.

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

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,

Traditional kawaii land
I know this is a bit late since this happened on sunday but whatever.
I went to experience some traditional culture with my two sisters: Chie and Chisato
We went to a nice temple I dont know where and joined in a few traditional japanese games. One of the games was hosted by my host mum. The games are a bit hard to explain but ill try.
Game 1
This is a game only played on the 9th of september.
There are 11 cups with a smell in this is how they are divided:
Cup 1: 2
Cup 2: 3
Cup 3: 3
Cup 4: 3
You are allowed to test smell one of cup 1 and one of cup 2. So when the game starts there will be 9 cups. This is the way the smells are divided:
Cup 1: 1
Cup 2: 2
Cup 3: 3
Cup 4: 3
Now these cups are passed around at a random order, and your job is to list them in the order you think they are in. Might either be easy or hard to understand. You write your answer on a paper and if you get more then 3 right your good. (I got two)
Game 2
This game is called moon something or the other.
You have two smells, and there are three cups of each. The smells are called moon and guest. You are allowed to smell Moon. Now when the game stars the "smell mistress" (we'll just call her that) randomly pics three out of the six cups. These are passed around and smelled. You have to guess the right way they are. There are of course many possibilities on the order. You write your answer on a piece of paper again (got two again)
This is the way the games are played. It was kind of hard to sit still for these... becouse theyr not the most exiting... but they were still intresting.
We also went to a tea seremony.
In the evening we went to a cinese restourant with my family (missing Takashi, Hiroko, Mayu and Ryuta), please check the pictures from my gallery.
Me and Yutaka came to the conclusion that Shigeru-san is a serious tobacco addict and that Akira is also an addict.

Rotary orientation
きょはロタリのオリエンタチオン.
Today was rotary orientation, or more like a rotary party. But of course nobody told me it was a formal orientation so i went in the normal shorts ad band t-shirt look with my creapers of course. It was funny how everyone else had very formal clothes and shit. But hey im different.
We listened to speeches for about four hours.. intresting ne... but we also got a presant. A book about Japan, a badge and a jukata kind of shirt. I have no idea what it is called, its is blue and has mt fuji on the back. Lol.
After all the forman things we had a dinner part, for like 2 hours... and all the inbounds and outbounds had to have a speech. Lol everyone thinks i have a rockstar attitude XD and maybe i do. At least i hope i do XD Im so bad. I ate myself sick again becouse these was chinese food (i love chinese food... especially since all i get to eat is japanese food). And the chocolate cake im in love with ^^"
We ended up taking thousands of pictures after the party becouse we love our friends XDDD

The land of kawaii is way too hot
Long time no update nee? But now, under my mums pressured email i will update my blog.. which is kinda annoying XDDD
Its been three weeks since ive been in tokyo and it has been about three weeks since my last update, gomen nasai. I have added pictures and such since then though, go look at them please.
Well anyway to what ive been up to.
I have been and seen many places since my last update, so ill start at the very begining.
The day after my last update i went to Akihabara with my host brother and sister. Akihabara is the one must see place for any manga and anime fan, as well as anyone intrested in cheap electronics. There are hundreds and hundreds of anime, manga and game shops, cosplay shops, electronic stores and department stores. We visited a maid cafe, which are also one of the known factors of Akihabara. The cafe was one of the cutest things i've ever seen, wit hyoung japanese girls in cute maid dresses in a room decorated with pink banners and such. We also visited a cute store full of cute things... japanese brads like hello kitty and such. A few days later they took me to Harajuku, first time for both.
And this new week of course brough with it the start of language school. And already I have learned some new things, as well as tried calligraphy and karaoke and such things. But i am very glad when high school starts, becouse at the moment I have way too much free time on my hands. In the start there was a bunch of cute little japanese children at school with us, but they were learning english... just as we were japanese. We cooked with them... made sushi and other fun things. They are so cute.
Ive been to Harajuku quite many times now... i have spent so much x_X And my family will agree with this ^^" I have made three japanese friends, Maki, Rie and Haruka, they are all so cute and really sweet too <3 I will be going to Shibuya with Maki before high school starts and Rie is in the same school as me.
Last sunday-tuesday me, my host family, and my hostbrothers family went to Kamogawa, to the sea side. Ah it was so nice. On sunday we went to a zoo, Ichihara elephant kingdom, where i saw some exotic animals and had a tshirt painted by a elephant... i know its painted by an elephant becouse i stood in front of it wearing the tshirt while it painted it XD it was so hot though, but we got showered by the elephants too hahah. The hotel room was very nice, traditional japanese, with nice sliding doors and even yukatas. We ate some seafood on sunday and some of it was still alive on the table until we cooked it.
On monday we went to Kamogawa seaworld, where i saw loads and loads of cool sea creatures. We also went to see a Orca, Dolphin and sealion show. They were really nice... we got really wet becouse one of the orcas used its tail to splash water all over us ahahah ^^" but it was fun. We ate french food lol.
On tuesday we went to the beach, of course we had been swimming everyday before that too, but in the pool. On this day though we swam in the sea... and it was nice and cool. Though i got my shoulders and feet (the bottom of them) a bit burned... as well as getting a sunstroke and staying home on wednesday.
The rest of the time has been school and sitting around. i have seen alot of places though and been to eat dinner with my host club and things like that, but most of the time has been school and staying home, since it is way too hot to spend time outside.
I am very happy when autumn comes becouse i cant stand this heat XDDD This friday is the en of language school thank goodness ^^" But i must have a speech... which i have to remember off by hard... not very fun nee? Two pages of writing... in japanese. Very nice...
well ill go update the rest of my page now, please check it... and thank you for reading <3 Jaa, Mata ne <3

The rest of the time has been school and sitting around. i have seen alot of places though and been to eat dinner with my host club and things like that, but most of the time has been school and staying home, since it is way too hot to spend time outside.

Day one in the land of kawaii
Uww I arrived on thursday morning around 8am at Narita airport. Three men from Rotary plus some Rotex and a soon to be finnish exchange student came to greet me at the airport. It was all very fun and seemed like they really wanted to see me. when we got out of the doors the heat was astounishing, it was so hot I could harly breath, but it's been like that everyday. Everyone in my family seemed really nice from the start, and they seemed to be willing to take me to all the places I want to see <3 Bless them. We had a unformal welcoming dinner, with most of the family and i liked the food very much. Only thing is that the japanese eat so much x_X and pickled plums... ugh...
On friday we went to the foreign registration center, the embassy of Finland... where no one spoke finnish. We also visited Roppongi and a Japanese style park. In the evening Hiroko-san took me, Mayu-chan and Ryuta-kun to a restourant to eat with Mayu-chans friends family and after that we went to the japanese festival. There was alot of dancing and other fun stuff, like fishing for gold fish and eating shaved ice. It was so much fun, and mayu and Ryuta looked so cute in their yukatas. Later we were sitting around with people studying japanese and watching a chibli film XD
Uww saturday was the traffic day. We went by train all around tokyo. Stopping at Shibuya, Tokyo center, Akihabara, Ueno, Shinjuku, Harajuku and back to Shibuya. It was so much fun to see all the different parts of Tokyo.
Sunday, what can I say, nee? We went to check out where my school was located... and where my language scool for next month as well as Olympic center were. But hey after this me and Chisato-oneesan went to Harajuku to shop, and man i tell you, it really is heaven. I was shaking like hell. When we went to this shop and i tryed on this outfit people actually stopped and said things like "so cute", "just like a doll"... so i ended up buying the outfit XD check out the shopping section please <3 In the evening we went to a traditional japanese restourant for my official welcoming party, it was so much fun. I really enjoy my family.
On tuesday Hiroko-oneesan and Chie-oneesan want me to take them to Harajuku ^^" yei, more shopping <3
uww and i heard my next host family lives in a temple XD
