Japanese Girl Part 2.

So she's here. My Japanese girl. In some ways it's compeletly and totally awkard. I'm afraid too, once we've finished introductions like "Hi, look at this, look at this" I'm not going to know what to do with her. I mean, I showed her my anime, which she loved, and I showed her my "Seventeen" magazine which she enjoyed looking at the pictures in. She's also amused watching me play my DS, "Pokemon Diamond" to be exact. According to her, the music/and scenario is the same in Japan. Though all the Pokemon have different names.

Such as. The Pokemon above is called, in the English version of the game, Cleffa. (Then Clefairy, then Clefable I think, as it evolves) But in the Japanese version it's name is Pi. So, when my Japanese girl said 'I love Pi!" it kind of threw me for a second. But it's also my favorite Pokemon too! Yay for cross-continental likes!

It is fun though. I'm really glad we chose to do this (host a student). The only downside is that at this moment my moms in a hospital with her gallbladder out. Which, I learned in Japanese is "ShuJuzu" Like Shoe, Juu, like in Juice, and Zu, like Zoo.

I also learned how to make origami swans. Only they kind of come out retarded because I can't fold anything straight. I get the first few folds correct, and then blggth. I mess it up a little and it comes out with an uneven head. Poor crane.

I also introduced her to sledding, which was fun, and we made a snow dog, though it's face has fallen off. :(
