Day Six-- Nagasaki

I overslept by 25 minutes. Good thing everyone else did, too. So Mrs. Kitahara drove us to to school instead of taking the bus. <3

I hurried upstairs and glomped onto Marsha. Uwaah, I was so happy to see the group!

Apparently everyone else went out to dinner, were attacked by cookies and peach juice, and looked at their house on Google Earth. I watched an Angelina Jolie movie and wasn't given anything to drink.

Anywho, we were very popular at the school.


First was chapel, so we went and attempted to sing along with the sheet music they gave us. We were introduced, and the students freaked. According to Hikaru, they were very impressed with Alea, Marsha, and me.

We watched a video on Kwassui before taking a tour.

Girls stared at us as if we were aliens, and many said "Harro" to us as we walked past.

We met up with the class we meet on the Moodle, and I was stuck next to Sumiyo, who was INCREDIBLY pleased to hear from Hikaru that I like Pokemon.

We talked for a bit and then played the game "Fruits Basket" (from which the manga got its name). Basically, there's a person in the middle who names a type of person (i.e., people who like ramen) and those who fit that description must get up and sit in another chair. The person without a seat is the next person to choose.

I was made it the last rounf, so didn't have to say anything. ^.^v

We had math class. Joy. Geometry. I don't remember anything from Geometry.

Then we played Karuta, a fun card game.

Lunch. I had udon. I'm sick of udon.


Then was social studies. The teacher was nice, but I felt bad for hime that none of his students would be quiet.

He was teaching us about the supply-and-demand curve, and drew an example (it made a curved 'x'). Then he drew one part and asked us to finish it if the graph represented the supply and demand for ice cream in spring and fall.

Sarah stood up immediately, walked up to the board, and finished the 'x' VERY proudly. But that wasn't the answer.

So Jeremy stood up as well and went up there to help. But he couldn't figure it out. The whole time, the teacher and the chaperones were repeating "parallel. Parallel, Jeremy" but they still didn't get it. So Asher stood up, marched to the front, drew a line that was parallel to the one there, and bowed. xD

After that, we went to the junior high and did origami--again!

After making a crane or two, I took Sarah's cootie-catcher and transformed it into "Taylor's-uber-jetlagged-sleep-deprived-cootie-catcher-of-fun". Yay.

Then we returned to the class and Hikaru, Azusa, Tiffany, Rachel, Marsha, Alea, and other homestay girls went to the mall. One of the girls' father work for the mall or something, so we got free tickets for the ferris wheel.

We bought candy and did purikura, and I got change. xD Yay for arcades and their change machines.

Hikaru and I went home and watched TV. <3 Doraemon, Crayon Shin-chan, and Music Station.

(Naichau Kamo reached #2! Yay MM~)

We had dinner at 9.

They looked at me funny when I didn't use sauce. They also told me to stop saying "huh" or "eh?" when I don't understand because it makes them uncomfortable.

Tiffany got horribly homesick today, and even I cried a bit. I really hate this.
