For those of you who have seen a japanese high school drama or show like nobuta wo produce youll know that theyll have classroom festivals where you decorate the classroom and do a dance or whatever. Our theme is disney lol soooo gay not ganna lie haha but thats okay but our so kina gay haha its this band that irritates me but i guess the songs okay. But the band deffinataly kills me inside. Why japanese kids like it IDK. Hazuki doesnt like it like me. good things someone agrees with me.

Well...Where should i start? They put me in a sophomore class which is fine cause their all awesome and soooooo cute. I teach middle schoolskids english or atleast help read lol and I go to regular class with students that are sophomores. I wear a uniform..yes. There okay lol. On the firs day everyclass and everwhere i went i got `KAWAIIIIIIIIII!!!` Honestly i felt like a celebrity. I think its not cause i am cute its cause their amazed that there is a gaijin (forigner) in their school.
My first day i got about a million praises but i was pretty quiet and thought i couldnt make friends.
Second day was less praises but i got to make friends and everything. I had fun talking to everyone and talking during class and being a rebel lol.
3rd day
I had to teach junior high kids english cause exams for　high schoolers demo(but) the 8th graders were cute. One guy asks `can you cook` i replied yes i love to he goes can you cook for me? haha so funny and then later he asks Why am i so cute, what a cute little boy. This other boy who goes `do you like me` , what a cute little boy. This other boy who goes `do you like me` LOL their sooo sweet its amazing
People thought i was half american half chinese but i dont think i look like it? i think they assumed cause im from america lol. So i met Yamapi and JaeJoon (not really、in case you didn`t know their famous asian people) They asked what famous japanese guy i liked hahaha i said Yamapi was my favorite and he`s ikemen (cute guy) and he goes `Oh Im Yamapi!` I laughed sooo hard, now i call him Yamapi his real names Genta-kun? Same thing about I said i like jaejoong and this kid goes oh Im Jaejoong haha. I found a japanese girl who loves korean bands like me haha YEAH!!!
People are so nice here everyone is so cute and funny. I LOVE IT =)
Theres one guy that looks like he`s in a rock band. But he`s in 2C which means he doesnt want to go to college because A and B classes want to go to college any others like C D to go to college any others like C D & E don:t and he`s my age (junior). I`m in 1B with lovely sophomores xD There taking exams right now so i have to teach english with an australian exchange student named Jamie, he thinks hes helllla tight haha anywho bye now.

Change of Host Family

So yesterday i sent pictures to my coordinator in Japan. Then today i got a phone call saying my host family canceled last minute -___- How disappointing. Is it because I wasn't what they were expecting? Oh well, so my new host families in Kazuno, Akita.
I have little info on them but here's what I have:
Last name: Katsuyama
Father
Mother
girl 17
boy 12
girl 10

I looked up Kazuno, Akita, looks like I'll be in a rural area. Oh well nothing can be done. I'm a little bummed though not because I dont like my new host family its just the sudden change.
