Yosakoi 2010

OMG…it’s been veeeeery long while since I blogged. And I was even determined to post at least once a week before I went to Japan..well NOT lol…

Just a very quick update for the ones who’re not following me on Twitter or Facebook.
I still eat a lot, study a lot, take care of myself and most important; have the greatest time of my life!! In fact, I don’t miss Holland AT ALL!! (no offense ;])

Especially during the summer holidays I had so much fun just hanging with friends, club activities at school (art club), daytrips with my hostfam, summer festivals and Yosakoi ofcourse :D I even received a medal at Yosakoi! Altho probably almost everyone received one or 7, I was really happy to receive one :D

In total I’ve been to about 7 summer festivals which are soooo much FUN! I never liked summer, in fact I hate it. But being here in Japan even summer is enjoyable ^^
I uploaded 2 videos on Youtube of the Obon matsuri (Lantern festival) where they dance the Obon dance (Bon-odori) ;D Will soon upload some more videos to YouTube and photos to my photogallery.

I also bought the application form+guide for the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) yesterday. Decided to do N5 because I think the vocabulary of N4 will still be too much for me.

Test date is on the 5th of December!! Or in Holland; SINTERKLAAS!! :DD
So while everyone in NL is celebrating and waiting for the big man to put something nice in their shoe (which must sound sooo weird to people who don’t know Sinterklaas XD), I’ll be in a pinch during the test XD
It’s weird that I can’t celebrate the holidays with friends & family back in NL this year =S

Oh right, I also went to the new Ghibli movie called 「借りぐらしのアリエッティ」 or in English “The Borrower Arrietty”. A short story but still a pretty movie just like any other Ghibli movie ^^

I recently discovered how extremely tanned I got!! （゜Д゜）
@ fellow Dutchers: Hah be jealous!! （｀∀´）
I absolutely don’t like it tho, but o what the heck, why not. Since I’m here for only 1 year I think I should do anything that isn’t me at all.
I’m actually also considering to cut my omfg long and precious hair… yes or no?

Can’t believe I’m already halfway on my exchange here.
Time flies in a blink of an eye when having fun (ToT)

Aah I’m so tired. Going to sleep now.
I’ll post again but I won’t promise that it’s going to be soon XD

お休み～～☆
