I decided to start writing on here again. Cleaned up all the old posts for a fresh clean start. I've definitely had a fresh start on life by moving here. It's been rather nice to not have to deal with any old drama or have to fight off new drama. It's equally nice to not have to be around the people that have brought drama into my life. I thought that this move would be terrible and that I'd be miserable, but it may just be the best thing to ever happen.
For one, I have a wonderful best friend here. Akane is her name. I met her on the first day of school. She's an exchange student from Japan, and she's staying with my sister's friend Jamie for the rest of the school year. She's a lot of fun, I think she's so brave for coming to America for the next few months. I think it's funny that my mom always told me that I'd never use Japanese outside of school, and boy was she wrong. Akane makes me want to learn even more Japanese! I hope to visit her in Japan after she goes back.
A lot of the things we've been doing together are new for her. Like, they don't have school dances in Japan. We all went to the first back to school dance, and she loved every minute of it. I can't wait for the big formal dances. Since we're both juniors we both get to go to
prom and I can't wait for that either. The next weekend she came over to my house and I showed her how to belly dance, something else she's never done. She told me she loves dancing, but she doesn't know how to dance well. She loved it though. We went to her first American mall too, and that was a lot of fun. I had her try a fish taco from Rubio's, and she said it was super delicious. (that's another thing about California that I love. There are so many different restaurants that have amazing food.)
Everyone is really nice here and the people I've been talking to and hanging out with are real sincere people. They think I'm weird when I proclaim my love for them, but it's true. Kids in Indiana don't act the same as the kids in California. I don't know what it is... maybe it's the sunshine and nice weather... something in the water maybe? Whatever it is, the rest of the world needs some. I adore the people I meet. Travis, Alex, Anthony, Ryan... they're all wonderful (and
they're all guys...go figure) and if any of you are reading this, I love you in a non kinky sort of way.
I really do love my new school. I don't feel a lot of school spirit, but I certainly enjoy waking up every morning to go to school. When I was going to Jeff I really hated waking up and getting on the loud bus to be locked up in a windowless basement all day. My classes are okay. I wish I could've had some more intense art classes, and I miss Japanese so much, bu
t everything here is pretty good. I signed up to join the photography club (which Akane is joining too!!) so we'll see how that all works out.
I've kind of given up on the job hunting recently. I'm just going to wait for all of the online applications to expire so I can resend them because it looks like nothing is really going through. I've tried several places but no avail. Oh well. I'm sure I can just do house work to get some extra bucks around here.
Well, I think that's a good update for now. I'll try to write more often... if anyone other than Lucas actually reads this...
Ciao my beauties <3
