ぜんぜん

i know its a monday and i only posted a few days ago but hey, i have a new host family. there is much to report on.

i officially named my previous host mother my japanese mother and she gave me tips on how not to look so shyish at the first meeting with the new host family along with a few other motherly things such as new soap and toothpaste. :)

new host family is nice. one daughter who goes to ohka(my school) a little boy who likes pokemon and yugioh, he gave me some of the pretty cards he dosnt use. my new host mother is a nice easy going person, as is my host sister. host father seems alright though i have not really spoken to him. they have two small birds and two gold fish.
my room is a tatami room, rather large and i have a futon which gets rolled up during the day. though it does appear to be the games room so i use it only when i sneep. i wake up at 5:40 now,even earlyer then before. and i get home at 7.
the area my house is in isnt in nagoya anymore, but its a nice area with many parks and reminds me strangly of north germany with its hills and little pockets of housing.

only one problem, .....the family hates fat people..and guess what i classify as in japan. :( my self image went through the floor at the first meeting. so damn self consious now :( my little brothers first word upon seeing me was "dekai" which translates to "huge" o.o sensei told me that i should lose alot of weight while i am with this family.:(


gotta go. another post on friday maybe sooner .
much love
