Bonjour! Hallo!
Today our group added two new members, a girl from Germany and another girl from France! I'm so excited to meet all of these people from around the world. I never realized that I would be meeting people from other countries by doing an exchange with Japan! I'm trying to learn how to say basic phrases in everyone's native language. Dutch is new to me! Here's what I've learned so far:
Hallo, mijn naam is Sarah. Hoe gaat het?
(Hello, my name is Sarah. How are you?)
Hey, it's a start! Anyways, I will be leaving for L.A. in sixty-seven days. In about ten weeks, I'll be in Tokyo! All of this just completely flabbergasts me. Time flies by so fast. It was only six months ago that I was added to the AFS Japan 2013-2014 group on Facebook. Now the members are all my good friends. On the AFS Japan (general page) I spoke to the exchangers who went on the 2012-2013 trip to Japan and I learned a lot of useful information. I can't wait to join the kyuudou club (archery) if my host school offers it. If not, I'd love to take shoudou (calligraphy) or maybe I'll get brave and take a whoopin' in kendou (wooden sword fighting.)
