How was it!?

Ghost · « **Reply #26 on:** June 25, 2012, 06:14:59 PM »

The nervous part was introduction in front of the entire staff. SEIRYO is a bigger school now. I went to visit Seiryo before, and this building is really new in comparison. but um. I basically drew and read all day. I helped Pin and Katie(two teachers teaching English) teach juniors nd seniors english. Um... My homeclass was funny. The boys were there first and then when the girls came in they kept asking me questions and were giggling like crazy.

As far as the 7 classes I remember:

chemistry: they had an exam, I didn't have to take it. SoI drew(teacher literally said that was okay)
History: The teacher looked over at my doodles and just admired them for a minute before teaching again. (the class noticed the expression on his face lolol)
Japanese: doodles.
Gym: They had a soccer lifting test. So I derped and played volleyball with a soccer ball before we played a soccer game.
ENG: I helped Pin teach. There was this one super giggly girl. She was funny. She kept talking really fast in Japanese, and when it was my turn to ask something she'd say, ''OKAY COME ON'' with determination.
Computer class: read a book.
Math: lololol I skipped it and went to help Katie teach Juniors to speak english. Hey, I was told I didn't have to follow the schedule.

So yeah, I had to introduce my uncle to google translate when we got home. And I told him I'm better off helping teach english and drawing in the art studio.

The reason why I drew and read was because the material they were learning was stuff I knew about and that I didn't have books/notes for. I was told a lot of exchange students sleep in class because they don't know what's going on. Herp, I didn't sleep, nah. Too active for sleep. I passed out at 8:15 PM >>;

This saturday I'm heading to Shizouka-Shi Prefecture(Shimizu) to stay at my grandfather's until July 9. Why? I'm not going to the school next week. Nothing but exams that I couldn't study for. So instead, I'll be derping around away from the computer and play with my friends Aya and Moka. I'll rarely be on. Prolly playing with fireworks or pokemon derping on the DS or going to the arcade or something awesome. I'll return to my Aunt's house on July 9. I'll finish school by July 21 and I don't think I'll be on as much then.

At Jiji's(Grandpa) for two days and then going to se my cousin Kouta on Saturday c:

Ghost · « **Reply #33 on:** July 22, 2012, 09:02:48 PM »

I'll be on and off here from now until the 27th. By the 28 my parents are coming to Japan and we're gonna travel around. AUG 1-2 I'm at my cousin's place to attend a festival(Northern most part of the main island. Which is near the southern tip of Hokkaido) after that I guess I'm travelling around and derping.

Ghost · « **Reply #34 on:** July 30, 2012, 05:40:11 AM »

Now that my parents are here, we'll be traveling like crazy. Went to Tokyo and got a new camera(because my current one is ooooooooold)

Tomorrow, I'm heading back to Tokyo and we'll be gone for four nights and five days. During then, I will see my cousin Kentaro and attend a festival in northern Japan(AUG1-2).

I have no idea what I'm doing at all other than that and going to two onsen and a world heritage site.

As for the camera, it's epic. Japan's tech is advanced for things like computers and media(not really homes because the houses are modern-traditional). The res is a 1610 and it zooms into 20x(normal cameras have a range of 5 to 12.5). It takes 3D shots but only shows if you have a 3D screen. It is not a touch screen or a hybrid(hybrid being buttons and touch screen) but I don't really care about that. And it's red. They didn't have it in blue so I went for red.(Because black,white and silver cameras are boring). Tomorrow, I will do magics with that camera. It's charging right now <3

Nebuta Matsuri was just AAAAAAAAAAAHMAAAAAAAHGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWDITWASSOBEAUTIFULANDTHEFLOATSANDTHEMUSICANDOMAIGAWDYESYESYESYESYES.

I was with my most favorite person in the world, Kentaro(we're close cousins). We saw the Nebuta festival in Hirosaki and Aomori. But two days isn't long enough for me to be with him. I wanted to stay longer but we had other things to do. :c

After Nebuta, we stopped at Sendai. This major city was hit by the tsunami along the coast line. People are trying to stay away because they are still getting 6.0 earthquakes every month. There weren't any earthquakes when we were there. Anywho, we stayed near Sendai for the night and then headed back to Shimizu. The exact day we got back, the Shimizu port festival started. Two guys were in some really bad cosplay. One as pikachu and another as a DBZ character. A street was blocked off and lots of people were dancing. I caught videos of some dances. Tonight's a fireworks show for the Shimizu Port Festival, so I'm gonna play with the fireworks setting on my camera for that lovely display <3

AWESOME

Ghost · « **Reply #37 on:** August 06, 2012, 03:58:12 AM »

I am absolutely terrible with fireworks pictures trolol

Anywho I was in Shizouka today and got two shirts that make no sense at all. One says something about sounding an alarm and the garbage man is gonna kill us all, and then the other is a blue shirt with random phrases. About halfway through it says something about the passage turning the speaker/reader on. I dunno, but these kinds of shirts are funny as hell.

Tomorrow, Prolly not doing anything. The 8-9 I will be at an onsen somewhere. and then the 10th I go home. Sadly, I won't get to see Kouta again during this trip. And I'll see Kentaro next year... ~~Has a really close bond with Kentaro.~~ But yeah. Sad this adventure is almost over.

I was in a food court with my parents and grandfather. And We were waiting for my father to get back. I had to sneeze and I did three times. GOD FORBID I SNEEZE. BECAUSE APPARENTLY THIS OLD LADY LOOKED SO FUCKING FURIOUS THAT I SNEEZED.

Yeah, I was sitting in a chair minding my own business. And then I had to sneeze. And I covered my mouth and nose and wasn't looking at anyone(chair across was blank). And my mother tells me the lady next to me was mad at me. What for? The hell did I do to her? And then my mother says that she acted like I put a big blob of mucus in her food. The fuck woman? When I looked right next to me, the lady quickly turned her glance the other way. Just, wow. She was so furious because I had a need to sneeze. Why do these people exist everywhere, especially Japan?! What a bitch.

*EDIT* /rant

I'm going to an onsen today and staying the night. The day after tomorrow I have a 13 hour flight back to LAX and then a 2-3 hour flight to SEATAC. And A bus or taxi ride home and then DERP. AUG 11 we get our fat and happy dog back from boarding.

Ghost · « **Reply #39 on:** August 10, 2012, 09:47:55 PM »

Back. Enough Japanspam lol.

Flew on Singapore Air again and watched a movie and then fell asleep the rest of the flight. Lol

At LAX, there was daylight and I was just behind the wing. Took a video of the landing and take-off. Uh, other than that, took pictures of forest fire smoke, Spanaway and some clouds c:

Yeah, we flew over Spanaway. I took a picture of the lake and caught my house in it too. Looooolderp.

So now I'm derping on a bus heading to Lakewood
