First day of school

On Sunday I went to get fitted for my uniform, so it should be arriving soon.

So today was my first day of school. I wasn't sure about the trains, so my host father told me he would come with me. At the first station a girl with the same uniform as me said good morning. I was surprised and then she said that her name was Megu or Meg (reminded me of a certain seestor). So all three of us rode the trains together. At the third station we met up with another person from my school. Megu knew her from club activities. So when we got to the bus station my host father decided to go home. So we got on the bus and couldn't move. There was so many people! The trains were exactly the same. Everyone was looking at me and it was really embarrassing. I found out that Megu went on a year exchange to Tasmania, so she knows how I feel and she speaks some English. When we got to school I walked past my classroom and every girl in the class screamed. so. loud. So I just bowed and went on my way because I had to introduce myself to the teachers. So I did that and it was quite foreboding. But everyone welcomed me. After I went to the classroom and introduced myself and then we did cleaning. It was actually kind of fun because you just talk to friends. But at this point I was still awkward and no one was talking to me because they were talking to friends and I didn't want to interject. After awhile people warmed up to me and started asking me questions and things. So then I waited an hour because there was a test. I talked to my teachers and read some of my text books. At 10:00 I went to the classroom and sat down. As I sat down and looked at my books, I felt this overwhelming sensation of loneliness. No one was talking to me and they were all talking so fast to their friends. But then people started to once again ask me questions and it was really nice. Then it was English class. This is when I had to do my long self introduction. So I was worried about it not being long enough (they had asked it to be 10-15 minutes) and I ended up talking for 45 minutes! I talked about Canada, and food and Newfoundland music (Rattlin' Bog, I's the B'y). I did so in half English (because it was English class) and half Japanese. So I felt really relaxed. Afterwards people asked me questions, the question that stood out the most was "do you have a boyfriend" said in English. It was really cute and everyone yelled "EEEEEEEEEEEHHHH!??!" after I said "no".  Then it was lunch time. We went and changed our clothes for our next class and ate lunch. My host mother made me lunch which consisted of rice, mushrooms, string beans, chicken and salmon. Mom listen, I ate the salmon... it was truthfully delicious !!  After we did stretching for drama and I was partners with a girl names Tera. It was really fun! So for four hours we stretched, talked, and played games. This is my school life. It's awesome. After school I needed to go get a bus pass so after exchanging numbers with a bunch of people, Megu, Hi (read He), Natsuki, and I went to the train station. I suggested that we eat (because Hi was hungry) and later do purikura. So I finally ate McDonald's teriyaki burger. It was SO GOOD! I want to eat it again! Then we went for purikura. Everyone is so cute in the pictures. Later I will upload them here. And now I am home. Very tired and very sleepy. Yesterday as well I went to a game center with Tomo, Sacchan and Sacchan's nephew. And then there was a festival. I will do a post on that later too! I'm just too tired now.
I can't wait to go to school! Everyone is so nice!
