I seriously need to work on updating this thing. So last week was the snowboard trip; that was really fun. It was my first time snowboarding and I fell 50,000 times and I hurt so much but it was still really, really fun!
We came back on Monday. Tuesday I hung out with Fuyu. Yesterday I did nothing. Today I had Rotary. Tomorrow I'm hanging out with Shaki and Fuyu, but I have a half day at school. Then Saturday is nothing, yet. Then Sunday I'm going to Yokohama with my first host family to help my host sister move into her college apartment!
Oh, and the cherry blossoms are starting to bloom! Yay!

Last Day of School!
Wednesday was the last day of school! So we had our school-closing ceremony and then I went downtown to hang out with Fuyu and Shaki. We ate Freshness Burger, of course.
When the new year starts in April, I will become a third-year student. It's kind of interesting, because I started as a first-year student. Then my first-year class went to New Zealand for a month, so I got transfered to a second-year class. Then I was able to choose whether I stay with that class, so I chose to stay with them. So now I will become a third year student. So basically I've gone through all three years of Japanese high school in 11 months. Pretty amazing.
So in about two hours, I'm leaving for Rotary Ski/Snowboard trip. We're going with an international Catholic school in Tokyo. On Easter weekend. Sacriligious much. I can't spell.

Air
The weather is getting gradually warmer, and with it I feel change in the air. Ah hahahah that sounds so corny and I've always wanted to say it. But it's true. Honestly, cold weather is the most odious thing in the world. Now it's getting warmer and I feel a lot better, both inside and outside. I'm trying to put all the horrible stuff that happened recently behind. And trying to move forward, and it's working rather well, if I do say so myself.
Today I came home, after a half day, and I did something that I haven't done in a long time. I did nothing. Of course, I have lots of free time, when I read a book, or watch TV, or go on the computer. But today I just opened the window, put on some music, and lay down on my futon. Something I used to do all the time back home, but kinda got outta of the practice of doing here (well not my futon in the USA, my bed.) Then I fell asleep for about thirty minutes to Vivaldi and Brazilian bossa nova. It felt really good.
Ok, tomorrow is no school!

Today
So my original homeroom today came back from New Zealand; it was really good to see some of them; I ate ice cream with some of them after school. In music class today we watched Irish step dancing; that was fun.
My whole class was like "You're so amazing. New Zealand for one month was so hard and you're so amazing to have been doing this for six months" And I was like "Ok."
Ok im done.

"Happy Ending" Mika
This is the way you left me,
I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory,
No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love,
Like it's forever.
Then live the rest of our life,
But not together.
Wake up in the morning, stumble on my life
Can't get no love without sacrifice
If anything should happen, I guess I wish you well
A little bit of heaven, but a little bit of hell
This is the hardest story that I've ever told
No hope, or love, or glory
Happy endings gone forever more
I feel as if I feel as if I'm wasted
And I'm wastin' everyday
This is the way you left me,
I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory,
No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love,
Like it's forever.
Then live the rest of our life,
But not together.
2 o'clock in the morning, something's on my mind
Can't get no rest; keep walkin' around
If I pretend that nothin' ever went wrong, I can get to my sleep
I can think that we just carried on
This is the hardest story that I've ever told
No hope, or love, or glory
Happy endings gone forever more
I feel as if I feel as if I'm wasted
And I'm wastin' everyday
This is the way you left me,
I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory,
No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love,
Like it's forever.
Then live the rest of our life,
But not together.
A Little bit of love, little bit of love
Little bit of love, little bit of love [repeat]
I feel as if I'm wasted
And I'm wastin' everyday
This is the way you left me,
I'm not pretending.
No hope, no love, no glory,
No Happy Ending.
This is the way that we love,
Like it's forever.
