5th post: Daily life begins

So it really had been a long time since I've posted, but that's a good thing. Ive honestly been too tired at the end of each day to post anything, so forgive me. But that also gives me stuff to report on. So off I go, not looking for spelling errors.

so in the first few days the entire class is pretty much accepted me. I've joined the kendo club and I'm going to their meetings whenever I have time. last weekend was a very fun weekend, for I went to an English lesson at my host brother's school. sunday was also very fun for I went to the church again and with a couple of the boys the same age as me I went to a game center for the first time. they have a taiko game and that was very enjoyable. I pretty much spent my entire sunday there. this week has also been very fun and very busy. yesterday I went out with a couple of classmates to a Chinatown that is near my school. I've also been able to talk to a lot of my classmates who are very interesting and nice people. also this week I went out with another exchange student and his buddy to the surrounding city. We went to osanbashi, and also I ate a Japanese crepe for the first time. on our way back to this train station we were able to see some street performers act who were very interesting as well. I'm also finally remembering all of the names of my classmates. they are also appreciating the American candy at that I am giving them that I took with me to Japan. I can't stress enough how friendly all of my classmates are in my class for they've taking an immediate liking to me. in the near future I'm hoping to go to karaoke and also to a Japanese McDonalds which everybody highly recommends. my weekends off until my departure are also jam packed with very nice and I gotta have a full schedule and do lots of things while I'm in Japan.

I just now realized that I haven't taken barely any pictures recently so I've been taking a lot of pictures, mainly of food. I can't help but walking to the convenience store and stare in awe at all the different kinds of bread that they have. I've also taken a liking the canned coffee and all the different kinds of drinks in the vending machines that are scattered around the cities. my host mother has also been cooking Japanese meals every single night which I'm very grateful for because they're very delicious. speaking of food I've regained my appetite and can eat plenty and plenty of Japanese food.

Time for a picture dump.

But either way, I'll really try to do this. If I have time. But I'll try my best.
