Yup, I am still alive.
Sorry for not posting that often , to be honest I totally forgot about my blog.
my last post is almost more than one month ago ... (whoops sorry....)
anyway lot of thinks happend.
hmm where should i start....
ok .... got it
The best season in Japan is autumn ( yhea... in The Netherlands EVERYONE HATES AUTUMN)
Well if you experience(d) japan in autumn you notice(d) that the sky is blue without any cloud, a bit chilly but it is not freezing. (not yet)
Autumn is also the best season to enjoy being outside , going to a park and enjoy nature.
A few weeks ago my host family and I went to a German Village park ( it is 'suppose' to look like a German village, super cute haha)
next to the park there was a 'ramen noodle town' ( best to describe as a place with many ramen shops)
when it is becoming dark there was a illumination show
So after playing soccer in the park , we went to the big slide which is REALLY high
the big slide
Another activity that we did was minigolf well I lost haha, but for real,my little host brothers are EXPERTS in mini golf haha.
so wen it was getting dark we went to the ramen noodle town for some good ramen and yup... it was GOOD , after a good meal we went back to the german village for the illumination which was breathtaking.
(pictures below)
after seeing the illumination we went home, everyone was tired haha but it I had a lot of fun.
Another highlight of last month was the 60th year anniversary party of AFS Japan.
It was really nice to see everyone again ,and meet new people.
we had to represent our country on a culture market (best way how to describe )
which was first a bit confusing, because lots of us didn't have anything with them except their flag (or not even that haha)
luckily and had some dutch candy ( pepernoten) and dutch licorice left , which both where all eaten (haha happy me it was so heavy in my bag ).
Also a family member of the Japanese empire came ( I thought it was his niece.... )
and on top of it the talent show , i didn't expect to participate in it but apparently they had a lack of people so my chapter ( AFS students are separated in chapters al over japan for ex: Tokyo chapter, Keiyo chapter<--- my chapter , ect) was chosen to join a song , let it go in your first language special... ohh well I have to admit I never saw the movie Frozen , neither the song I know.
luckily I had to sing the Japanese part with the other Keiyo members ( which I was really happy with , the rest were singing solo )
After the talent show we had a dinner in a huge room ( which was necessary I think there were around 1000 people )
the dinner was pretty fancy but delicious on the end we sang a song (closer to you) and went home ,
I went home with a friend from canada ( for now on I will call her misses Canada and her host mother we stopped by a huge tower to see the view from a high level (literal ) which was absolutely beautiful.
Something else to tell hmmm ???
