Goodbye Canada > Hello Japan!

So, it's the morning before I leave and our flight is delayed. LOL, great eh? well, that's alright! WOW THOUGH! it's finally that day! the day I've been planning for the last two years .. and now it's finally happening! I am so excited.

5 days left before departure!

Sorry guys! I haven't updated in a while! Here's a list of what has happened.
- Lots of email from host family! My host mom told me to call her and my host dad mama and papa. I feel so love <3
- Bought my luggage and packed.

- And had my going away party with Ria today!

5 more days until departure and I am soo pumped minus the fact that I have two exams left to do on Tuesday and Wednesday. I leave on thursday :P

Done deals!

okay, my mom is done paying for my whole program. This exchange is set in stone.
25 days until departure!

Host sister emails me!

I woke up this morning and looked at my inbox to find that my host sister has emailed me! I wasn't sure if I was going to email them but I am glad that she emailed me!

I'm really excited to meet them all! I'm so glad my host sister loves fashion also. She's planning on taking me to Harajuku and Shibuya :)

I finally got my passport :)

Host Family Information!

I went to our orientation yesterday and they finally gave me my hostfamily information :D
I am soo excited! No pictures with it though, but that's alright.

My host dad is a researcher, my host mom is a Labo tutor and I have a younger host sister. Her name's Mau and she's 12. They also have pets; they have a dog, rabbit, bird and turtles. Their home is in Kanagawa ken, Nakaharu-ku! I have to take the train to Tokyo everyday :)

I'm sooo excited to meet them! Only 31 days until departure.

Okay! things are finalized! we just need to pay off the remaining $1400!
My orientation is this Saturday May 8, 2010 noon :)

I'm pretty pumped. I have my friend Ria going to Japan with me but she's doing 2 months, I'm doing 1. And apparently there's another girl going but I haven't met her yet! I'm soo pumped though :)
