Oh hey Typhoon.

So today's Friday... or so it would seem. That's right. We had a day off of school on Wednesday because of a typhoon. Which means (as Dartmouth never sleeps) we have school tomorrow.... Saturday. Am I bummed out? Yes. Which reminds me, I tried to explain the word "bummer" to my homestay parents... yeah they didn't get it lol but they thought it sounded funny.  So on typhoon day I stayed in like we were supposed to (even though it was relatively sunny- I invite those of you Las Vegans to think back to that happy day when school was called off for a snow day.. and then it didn't snow. Good times.), skyped for a couple hours, ate a little, slept for two hours, and read Harry Potter for the rest of the day. I've been on a pretty bad Harry Potter kick ever since we watched the last movie. Thinking of going backwards. just read the seventh now gonna start on the sixth. OH wait the best part about having school tomorrow is that we dont just have class. we have a test. but we dont just have a test. we have a two hour test and then ANOTHER hour of class. Starting at 9am. Dartmouth for the win. If I am not mistaken, however, Dartmouth is then treating us to lunch. So that's fine.
Anyway though, today we did a traditional Japanese dance workshop!!! So much fun! We all put on kimonos and learned a short dance and did it to music. It was rather hard to walk in mine, it was really tight. Japanese traditional dance is very interesting. Also, I had to write a comment about it in the book afterward as a girl representative--thank you Ezra for the help. Other than that though, not a whole lot has been going on here. Just the typhoon and school. Ugh test on a Saturday. Alright complaining over. It was lovely and cool today which was rare but nice. I have learned the word for to scold- gami gami iu. it's pretty much anytime you're yelling at your kid, that's what it's called. YAY. That's all for now!
Jya~
