For elizabeth

Like the title says, this one is for elizabeth.

So Ebeth, haha i'm too far away for you to hit me for calling you that, you wanted to know about my classmates. here goes.

The girls in my class are all really sweet, strangely dressed, tiny little people that have voices too big for their bodies. the girls that sit on either side of me are really kind and they always help me and soon i'm going to meet up with Juu-n san or Jusu san for drinks. Juu-n has an emo fashion sense with a really bubbly personality. i can talk to her more easily because her voice is really loud. Jusu on the other hand is a tiny lace-y type fashion girl with a predisposition to falling asleep randomly.

Oh, and all my classmates are korean except Akadi who is russian and Lenamarie who's from illonois. but they're across the class so i can't really ever ask them questions.

and today, a little good news, despite how i've felt i'm actually in the mid-high range of my class. a few of my classmates got told that they weren't really level 2 material but with me my teachers just want me to study more. that i can do. plus, it's nice to know that my speaking is above par for my group.

ok, back to topic, the boys here are mostly all handsome and all of them are ridiculously smart. i don't know whether it's the difference in culture or the difference genetically but i think asian boys look better. They always dress up and their hair is always perfect and they have such smooth skin (aka no freckles) and i don't know how many other reasons. but it's really really true, seeing boys in suits and styled hair is kinda nice. i didn't really think before about how little effort american boys put into their look until i got here. it's really admirable too, what with the heat and the crowds, that these boys can maintain the perfect look all day without ever getting frazzled. it's daunting. after about an hour, i look like i've been awake 3 days without showering.

anyways, i lied in the last blog. i am going out tonight. Roxanna and chloe invited me to get a few drinks with them and steve and teguu. it sounds fun but, if my family is reading this, don't worry people out there in mommy and daddy land, i'm not going to drink too much. i have culture class in the morning and the last thing i want is to get a hangover when we're going to spend the whole day on our feet.

anyhow, love you Zabe.

Your best best

Falling asleep randomly? Interesting. I wanna know more about the Russian girl, maybe I should send Vlad over to visit with you lol. But I know what you mean about the boys. Those boys in their suits get me every time. There is a reason I like downtown so much.
But it sounds like you've got a good class, and I'm glad that you're in the higher part of the class! That's AMAZING! It also sounds like some of your classmates will be good friends, which is another good thing!
Oh snap I'm late for class.....LOVE YOU!

So I thought you would laugh at this, Vlad told me that Russian people don't go to Japan, because he doesn't go to Japan. I think my little vlady is crazy.
