BIG UPDATE!!
Okay well , last weekend I had my general orientaton, and it was fun!!! (inside jokes incluide: Guzman/Gooseman, Chicken, Albatross, GHETTOH, swaggah lmaooooo)
I was there for 2 days and had a blast with everyone! There was a girl there that went to Okinawa too, and like all the foreign exchnage sutdents were BOMB lol.
So yeah, apparently everyone and there mother is going to japan!! lmaooo, like legit everyone there was going to Japan.
On to other things!!!:
I took almost all my finals!!!(and cleared out my locker lmaoo)
and i bsically failed my math final…jesus; and i’m taking my french final tomorrow during his class…he’s such a weirdo
ANYWAYS: my luggage is still too small…my mom is so cheap lol, she’s such a miser!(not really but she is when it comes to luggage);
I still dont kno who my host family is…like wtf, i’m so depressed lmaoo, i wanna buy them something!!! I WANNA KNOW WHERE IM GOING!!!
And well tomorrow, i’m going on this crazy “expedition” of saying good-bye to all the teachers! Last day of school is the 5th!!!!!
NOTE: since i do not kno where in Okinawa, i’m staying I cant promise that i’ll be able to blog over in Japan. What I think is prolly going to happen is me just writting in a journal and then transfering everything here :[
HOWEVER, nothing is set in stone yet so we will see!!
(lol, sorry if you felt like this was rushed, because i still have TONS of stuff to do!)

Anyways, i haven’t found out about my host family :[ AND MY MOTHER still has to take me to go shopping for clothes(for myself and host family gifts) and to get my drivers permit…and the only weekend i have open is this one…
- next week: Orientation (May 30-31st)

- …this means I basically screwed.
And right now, it’s Thundering, and if you don’t have a crazy spanish family, this is what happens: We go like army move and shut off EVERYTHING and cover the mirrors…..by shutting of everything i mean TV,lights, and computer..because I might get electrocuted…..
