Welcome to my blog! Follow me as I dive into an adventure filled study in Japan!

A typical Japanese House

I've seen typical japanese houses in movies, but I wonder what it's like to live in one! Here's a run through of the house!

Tea?

Nice bedroom! I'm gonna miss the typical American bedroom! I'm gonna sleep on the floor and pack up my futon in the morning... -_- I've never had to stress about making my bed in the morning...

Cherry Blossom legend.

Sakura trees are so beautiful, right?! But they're more than just beauty in the eyes, myths and legends of the tree will soon catch your ears.

Yummy Wagashi!

I really like eating Mochi! For those of you who're new to Mochi or Wagashi they are a type of sweet dessert consisting of a bean paste core and soft bread like cover. I've tried making a lot of mochi, here are some recipes that I've tried!

She's such a cutie! Little girl in Kimono!

I've always wanted to try on a Kimono! But I'm really short so mine would have to be custom made.

Tokyo Disney Land!

I went to Tokyo Disney Land which was really really close to my home.
It was really fun! Only me and my Host-sister!
We went on lots of rides! My favorite thing was the 3-D theater thing, it wasn't just 3-D it was like 4-D!!! You could feel what was happening! It felt so real! Water sprayed at the audience, wind blew etc! I had so much fun! My favorites were the Splash mountain and the Space ride...!
It was my first time in Disney Land! I'm so glad I went to it!

Maid Cafe?!

Hey you guys! So a while back I went to a Maid Cafe in Akihabara with my host-sister Karen-chan...it was O_o

Yep...they're so cute! They way they talk is so high pitched it's hard to understand even to native speakers like my sister! All the people in there was so outgoing including the customers! I had a blast around real otaku's!
What encouraged me to to Akihabara was after I watches Densha Otoko with my host sister!
Akihabara was so much fun!
The maid cafe was so expensive though! 1000¥ for a table and you have to order at least 2 items per person...I probably won't go there again...it's not that I dot like it, everything was amazing...but I just can't spend that type of money... -_-

Last day of school...

My last day of school was on the 7th of July, I went to school for 2 weeks only! But I had so much fun! The students gave me farewell presents! So thoughtful of them, we took class photos too! I really miss them!
I almost started crying when I left...I
Loved that class!
They're known to be the loud class of the school. It was so fun being with them! Class 2-F! Yeah!!!
I went to Tsukiji Market with my family last week. It was so fun! We live really close to it but I couldn't believe I've never knew about it...
There were so many different kind of fishes! I was so fun! And Dangerous!!! My host mom said it was like a different world, not Japan anymore. You have to stop for the people there, it was really dangerous!
I had sweet tomogoyaki, very famous at Tsukiji! It was so delicious!
Afterward we ate breakfast at a sushi belt place! It was my first time an it was so much fun! I ate the most...I had 10 plates of sushi, and one plate of jello...
