Week one is OVER

Ive been in Japan for 1 week. So far so good I guess... I think I will be a lot happier when I have internet access in my apartment (which will happen on Friday of this week). Ive been super busy with classes and homework and hanging out with friends. This past weekend we (the BSU students) went on a tour of sapporo. We went to the top of the telivions tower and had okonomiyaki for lunch (YUMMY). Saturday was also Nadine and my first time riding the subway and the bus. When we were done with our tour we were told we had to go back by ourselves because the group thought drinking was more important than making sure we got home ok. Thats the one thing I dont like about not living in the DK house, i feel left out of the group sometimes. Anyway, Nadine and I were fine on the subway but we missed out bus stop and were forced to get off the bus when the route ended. we asked the driver where the college was. He said to get back on the bus and he would tell us when to get off... It was a mess lol, but we eventually got home. Sunday, Nadine and I went to church. I loved it, the pastors wife sat behind us and translated the message. After church and lunch the pastors wife took us to see the plum blossoms at a park. there were lots of people and the trees were so pretty. I met someone who looked like the Japanese version of Justin haha... Wednesday (tomorrow for me) we are going to get cell phones. Tonight I have a bunch of homework to do on top of laundry and grocery shopping. Tuesdays are my only free day so I spent most of my morning on the internet at the computer lab. This weekend we are getting INTERNET!!! (YAY) and going to the zoo... We are also planing to have a movie night with laura (another exchange student from Nabraska).
Classes are crazy, I only have 2 but one is a 3 hour long Japanese class that meets everyday but tuesday and one is a 1 hour long culture class that meets Wednesday mornings. The first week of classes were really hard becuase I havent had a Japanese class in almost a year, so I have a lot of catching up to do.
I will write more later... hearts and hugs
