And it was a district meeting so i got to meet all the other inbound student in the district. I have my next meeting on the 10th but it the kobe club rotary meeting, and i have to do my speech again, only this time it has to be longer, luckily my teacher are here to help me write it! :)
All is well. Lily:)

Last Night My host brother Eisuke (15 yrs old) took me to small summer carnival. The games that they play are different. After we went out to sushi house with host family Mika (mother), Norifumi (father), Yoske (9 yrs old brother).
This is the conveyor belt that went by with sushi on it, you take the one that you want. I tried octopus raw it chewy and I didn't like but when cook it much better.


Yesterday I started school at yamate girls school. I had to do a small speech about myself :S. But today I got my uniform, this is me in the summer uniform. I walk to school it takes about 25 minutes ( not all the time). I have to be in school by 8:30 for home room everyday, and you go to home room at the end of everyday aswell.
