too happy, maybe?
(in this post: post-APs sentence long celebration, to do list, and upcoming dates!)
AP tests are over (actually they were over last week... w/e) and I now have time to think seriously about exchange stuff :D
So. Things. To do! (and have done, for some...)
- Get a Dictionary. Fortunately I have done this already :D I got the pocket webster dictionary (which can be accessed from http://amzn.to/95V6Jx if you're interested at all) and am highlighting and doing other fun things in it.
- Get a phrasebook. I didn't think that I would need one, but looking at how much I know thus far, it's definitely gonna be a good idea... heh. still have to go to Borders to scope them out.
- Host family gifts! this one's tough... I think I'm going to make a photo/scrap-book about life in America, get some UMich stuff, Michigan-related great lakes stuff, lanyards.... practical stuff :D
- Other gifts! Little stuff... candy, photos.... magnets? o__o
- Packing... bleegle bleegle. I have to get clothes... shorts... summer clothes besides T-shirts xD
That's all the important stuff for now.
Oh! I should probably show off my YFU goodies. My shirt is currently in the wash so I'll do that in a separate post.
(it's XL.... bound to be interesting hehehehehehehe...)
And one last thing... I have my Orientation this weekend :DDD I'm excited. I don't know if it's only Japan-bound students (probably not, as I have seen from the feedback on our Facebook forum) but I am sure it will be awesome either way.
JBSD luncheon next week. whoot whooo!
until next time :D
