HOST☆FAMILY

So I know I said I wouldn’t post anything until after my exams were over, but yesterday I got the best news eva! I was checking my email and I had a message from AFS subjected CONGRATULATIONS. I knew what it was about just form the subject, so I kinda shouted in excitement, which led my dad to look at me funny XD.

Anyway… I HAVE A HOST FAMILY!!! I am soooo happy right now! Apparently I was the first to get my host family. People keep telling me it’s because of my red hair, which reminds people of Anne of Green Gables who is popular in Japan. I will be living in Kanazawa, Ishikawa. It looks like a really pretty city. Unfortunately it’s about 5-6 hours away from Tokyo, which is pretty far away T_T
I have a dad (45), mom (43), sister (16), and brother (14). It’s great that I have a sister about the same age as me (only a year and a bit younger). I also know that I will be going to Kanazawa Fushimi Senior High School. The website doesn’t have any good pictures of the school or uniforms. I don’t know much else at the moment, but will hopefully find out more soon.
I will post more info about my city and family later, after exams. They start in less than a week, so I should go study. >.<

2 ½ months until Japan!
