Day two

Today I got a bigger dose of this city. It’s big and spread out just like Calgary. My neighbourhood is pretty quiet, I think its an older neighbourhood. My host father and I went to the weekly meeting,
The subway is probably the fastest thing in the entire world. And its so smooth I don’t even know how it’s possible.
I finally met the other exchange students today. There is a girl from Finland, she got here Tuesday, her English is really good and I’m glad for that. There are two Australians, one who has already been here for six months, and already studied Japanese for 5 years >_>. The other one I couldn’t meet because she’s at home with an injury. In our district at home in Canada we must have had 20 exchange students from all over the country, but there are only four of us here, and they only accept/send students from/to Canada, America, Finland and Australia, that’s it! Not to mention, there are no male inbound exchange students but me, and all the Japanese students who just got back from their outbound exchanges are also girls.
After that, a bunch of us went for karaoke, which I’ve never done before.
Now you should know that I’m no singer, especially if you're an ex member of the band Dead Reckoning. HA. But this was really fun; we went into a little dark room with a table and sang to words on a screen and They made me sing when a song came on like, I think I’m turning Japanese, or Barbie girl, or hey hey you you I don’t like your girlfriend or whatever, it was quite a good laugh, I was happy just to have English speaking people around me.
Since I don’t even know my way home one of the girls who takes the subway in the same direction got off where I get off and waited with me for my host father to walk and get me. I could recognize some of the buildings when we came out of the station, and I felt like an big dork when I saw that the station we got off at had been only like 200 feet from home all along.
As much as I liked Japan yesterday, I like it more today.
