First days in Japan

Hello Dear readers!

Has been a while hasn't it? ♥

I've been so busy arranging my life here that I didn't find time to blog. Also my motivation for it was a little down since I could think of 10 other things that were more important. Gomen ne!
But yeah, here I am now and finally found time. Ok actually I should be studying now! Got a kanji test tomorrow! The school's quite strict. Got homework EVERY day and have to turn them in the next day. besides that I've got at least 1 test every week. But it's fine I guess. That way we'll at least learn japanese more efficiently. My class actually consists of about 22 students of which 19 are chinese and 3 not. Nice one! Chinese means at this place easy kanji learning, what makes it harder for us non chinese since it takes us longer to understand and remember the kanji.. D: It's really giving me a hard time! Especially since I have to study some of the old Kanji because I'd been learning them in a diffrent order, so I don't know all of the kanji they learned before, urgh D:

But yah, enough about having a hard time at school for now :D

On my day leaving for Japan my flight had 4,5 hours delay! UGH! but okay, that way I had more time to spend with my family what actually was very nice!

It was especially hard for me to say good bye to my mum since we've always been like good friends and I knew that she'll be all alone at home. So I really felt bad leaving her (;A; ) Suprise Suprise, we both cried when saying good bye. The good thing, she'll be visiting me here in Japan in the encd of March. I'm sooooo looking forward to it! We'll be going together to Kyoto since I've got holidays the same time, hihi! Aaaaaand it'll be her birthday! So we'll be celebrating that as well! HAPPY! ^__^

↓my plane when I left. there was so much fog that you couldn't nearly see ANYTHING! O__O

Arrived in Japan I managed to buy the wrong trainticket hahaha since I mistook the names of the train, skyliner and NEX. JUHUU! So I had to change trains at Nihonbashi. Fine. Easier said than done. I had 2!! have suitcases + a heavy bag for my carry-on luggage and my LV-Handbag. On my changingway I manage to break my bigger suitcase.. >_>

Finally in Shinjuku I took the wrong exit hahaha although I've been living in a hotel on the same side as my apartment is, I still took the wrong exit. Those of you who have been in Shinjuku before, they know how hard it is to get to the other side if you have taken the wrong exit. I dragged my luggage some 100 meters until I finally could take a cap to bring me to my apartment. Thank god it didn't cost more than I had planned for it.
After leaving the cap I was able to get my key easily and enter my apartment. I was positively surprised since I started to imagine it as being worse. But actually it's really fine! I'm happy with it. The room is a little bigger than I had imagined, just the kitchen is a little eww, but it's alright.

Btw I have already changed some things, like bedding sheets and stuff. Bought also cutsey stuffs so I would feel more at home. I'll show you when I have completed my purchases here ;)
Then I'll make an apartment-introduction-entry! ♥

Also to feel homely right away I bought these things at a store nearby:

muumi! Part of my childhood and origin! lovely!
So I arrived at 28th, 4.5 hours too late, what made it impossible to go to immigration bureau for my alien reg card. Wanted to get it right away so I could get a mobile phone. So, FAIL! On 29th I was supposed to meet friends who were here on holiday, 2nd FAIL! One of them was ill (;_; ) luckily he got better soon! So I just made some purchases for my apartment like cooking utensils and stuff on 29th. After that on 30th I went to an Exte Salon with Conny! Nicola helped us a lot at that point, THANK YOU! Honestly! I'm so thankful! After the exte we went to Karaoke, was really fun! ♥
On 31st I met two friends! First V. and later on Severine! A lovely girl who's attending the same school as I am. She's also writing a blog, so check it out here: Petit Pain d'Epice
We are really similar and I've grown to like and to value her! It's always fun hanging out with her! We've already taken maaaany purikura, but I'll show them to you later ♥

So since it was New Years Eve we went to a hairmake and after to Ikebukuro to meet Conny and her friends there. We went direclty to an Izakaya. Was so tasty and so much fun! ♥
They still met some other friends before 00:00 so Severine and me went to Shinjuku for Karaoke alone. Since we both can't sing at all it sounded terrible haha, but it was fun!

We parted at about 1 o'clock and I made a visit to a shrine near to my place. It was soooooo crwoded that I couldn't see where the line started and where it ended! It was sooo crazy! So I decided to let it go and went there at about 9pm on 1.1 instead. (accompanied by Severine ;D)
Finally pics taken with my better cam, the Nikon one! There were still people lining up! O_O

So now, I will talk about the last days more in my next entry. Too much going on to write about it all in just one entry! Hope it's not too boring to read.. ^^;
