Nana to Japa

I feel like I'm getting closer with my host brother...
When I first got to Japan and the family, my host brother didn't seem to like me...he was rather rough, and when I asked him questions he wouldn't answer me...I felt really sad...but 3 weeks into my life in Japan he began to talk to me...it started when I offered to play baseball with him. At first it was really rough baseball...like he would chuck it at me with force but I continued to play. Sometimes it would hurt because it would hit me.
But as we continues the next few days I began to see him smile more and laugh more...I was glad just to see him smile...he laughed a lot when made mistakes, so began to make mistakes on purpose to make him laugh...
And now...I have less than one week
left and we're talking with each other like never before.
Last night we played hide and seek just the two of us...it was so much fun!!!

So my point is —
If you want to study abroad always stay positive. There's gonna be things that are hard to work out. For me it was my host brother, but I learned to do things with him that he liked (baseball) and that strengthen our bond.
You always change for the family, you never make the family change for you...
