12月!!早いね!

WOW!! Super sorry for not posting in the LONGEST time! November seriously came and went and (tah dah!) December! This month has been crazy. Last month of the year and things. My schedule has consisted of class, some dance, バイト and trying to hang with friends and eat dinners with the family.

In my spare time I have been planning for 冬休み, winter break. Last week I had some midterms that I had to do. This week was the last day of classes. I seriously had only 1 class later in the day (since it is Wednesday) and I went... dedicated to school, I know ha. Tomorrow is the official start of winter break and my mom is coming to visit! exciting!

in 2 days it is Christmas! Christmas in Japan is interesting. It is DEFINITELY commercialized here and everyone goes and buys presents of course. My host family has a fake Christmas tree set up on the tatami floor room with some ornaments...super nice just like I have at my house ha :P Some of my American friends have told me that their host families do not have anything Christmas in their house so I guess it depends.
My host kids also know who Santaさん is and ask questions about him. My family will have a Christmas party get together which should be nice.

I am excited for break, to see my mom and meet up with some old time friends!

Over winter break I will be going on a skiing trip and traveling around Japan a bit. I will give more details when I return!

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!! :) メリクリスマス、よいお年よ!

The new year in Japan should be cool to see so I will talk about that later! :D
