whee! i haven't blogged in a long time(:

it was super fun yesterday and today(: hee! the jap school was so cool! ^.^ it's really really different from nus high(:

okay let's see... i dunno! there's just so many things to talk about! xD

yesterday:
well. went to the jap sch feeling all weird and everything. it was really awkward; and i couldn't find sayuri at first. but i decided to go explore so i found her in the end(: so. yah. took attendance and everything then there was the opening ceremony. it was so funny! we were like sitting on stage so everybody's looking up at us and it's really really weird! =x so yup. so we went to class and everything. then lessons started.

uhh. O.o i couldn't understand half the thing they were talking about. luckily the first lesson was maths so it was easier to understand. at least the symbols were the same. and the teacher was really trying hard to explain some things in english. but all the problem solving in jap was cool!^.^ hee. oh did i mention? they have 10mins of break for every 50mins of lessons!(: haha.

oh and you know they have like a fixed seating position and for each subject there are usually a few diff groups in the same class so there were people from other classes coming to the classroom and everything.

and the girls were really nice(: like smile-y and everything. (and they're chio too! :))

oh and there's air conditioner everywhere, except the taiikukan and all the obvious places that wouldn't have aircon.

so next we had some japanese culture lesson (while my class was having english) and i learnt to play some really fun games!(: haha. there was koma or whatever it's called.

then it was karaaaaate! (my class was having japanese; pheww. i didn't have to attend) haha super cool! but we didn't get to really fight! we were having some umm. practice drills? haha but it was really fun!(: oh. and i never learnt how to tie the belt properly. mine always untied halfway through. (we wore the thing over a shirt lahhh) and the robe thingy was really heavy! O.o

then we went for science class. ahaha. did this experiment that involved a scary bunsen burner that i didn't touch throughout the experiment. but the ball of fluff (iron) was kawaii!(: and apparently sayuri's group's experiment failed. xD

then it was... whoops. i forgot. right. lunch! haha they eat in the classroom and it was really cool cause it was like. everybody was eating together, in the same place and the class was really united! for lunch, they join their tables together so it forms long tables(:

then they have like a break (umm. directly translated as time for anything you want to do xD) after lunch. sayuri had to go for some committee meeting so i stayed with mizuki (a super nice girl!) who stayed in class. the guys were playing cards! hah! fellow card addicts! and some girls were doing some cheerleader dance that was very nice to watch! it was super cute and they were carrying pom-poms!(: haha! super cute! and during the break, lots of people go to the taiikukan. the girls were playing volleyball! and the guys were playing basketball and badminton -.- and the sports equipment is actually free for them to take lor! they don't even have to ask a teacher.

next... is it english conversation? i dunno! but the EC teacher was really nice and funny!(: and that was the only lesson i fully understood cause the teacher was teaching in english xD

then there was social studies. uhh. i didn't exactly understand O.o

oh and after each school day, they have to do some reflections thingy and somebody has to announce the lessons they have next day (?) basically, housekeeping matters. oh and their timetable is actually a three-week cycle! O.o

right. so... i didn't go for their club activities =x but sayuri had to go so ayaka (another super nice person! i told you everybody there was super nice!) walked me out. oh and almost the whole sch takes the school bus! the rest take the taxi (i think)

right. so that was the end of the first day(: it was super fun! it was like a totally new environment!

so today:
the principal invited us into his office! which has this classy clock that was really cool! O.o and all the teachers came in an said hi and talked to us for a bit. we were early, you see. the school buses weren't here yet.

so. first period was english. i half understood... because this was different from EC. the teacher's a jap teacher teaching mainly in jap. (explaining in jap)

next was pe. they're doing swimming now! O.o i didn't swim; and luckily i didn't cause all of them are like pros or something. anyway sayuri had a cold so she didn't swim either. so did the rest of her friends who didn't want to swim. it was super funny! cause they all said they were sick; then they ended up playing with the pool water so the coach didn't believe them and was looking at them weirdly xD

next we went for some jap culture thing again (while they were having jap lessons. phewww) and we learnt this amusing game! haha! it was actually quite fun! and we got to tour their library for a bit. O.o most of it was in jap, but i found some interesting-looking detective story. i could barely understand the summary xD best find of the day: the whole harry potter series(:

next was moral education. umm. something about being courageous and doing what's right or something. i didn't exactly understand the passage they were supposed to refer to. so i was sort of daydreaming xD sayuri also said "taikutsu" so i guess the communication thing was exactly the problem xD

next was lunch(: i bought the bento coupon in the morning! so i went to collect my obento. haha. it was beef rice with some weird thing that was actually nice and watermelon. whoops! six bucks gone xD but i was good food so it's worth it(: just make sure my mum doesn't find out xD

next was cleaning time! so cute! they actually have a designated cleaning time every wednesday xD the whole class just mops + sweeps + wipes the classroom and their part of the corridor outside xD the girls all wiped the classroom floor! haha! it was quite fun! we each took a rag and ran with the rag pressed against the floor. uhh. sorry for the lousy description. just imagaine, yeah? xD then we were having competitions about who can do it the fastest! haha!

we had break again so we went to the taiikukan. and they started pointing out sayuri's crush xD some pro basketballer O.o and sayuri insisted that he was really cool. and asked me if i saw his face; if i did i would think so too! but i didn't see his face so too bad xD then we got our own little spot and started playing volleyball. haha. quite fun actually(: just that i'm lousy at it xD but you can't blame me, it was my first time! and really. almost the whole school was playing bball/volleyball/badminton/some weird ball game.

next was history. O.o O.o O.o O.o i vote it the most difficult to understand class, ever. they were talking about some jap artists in the first part of the lesson (presentation by classmates) then the teacher started talking about the meiji period. whoo. couldn't understand more than half the things xD

then we had 10mins break; and the girls started pointing out all their crushes to me xD super funny; but they all looked the same to me O.o okay. maybe it was cause we didn't dare go near.

next was maths, again!(: i vote it the most interesting lesson, ever. and the teacher's super interesting too! haha!(:

then it was the end-of-day class meeting again. so they reflected on their day, and had some super cute guy that announced the lessons for tmr.(as in cute in the little boy way. he was half my height! xD)(okay i was overestimating myself. he was.... shorter than hanisah:)) he was really really cute!

then we took a class photo(:

and we went home! haha! my mum could pick me up! whee!

): tmr's the last day *sobs*
