I'm a junior in high school, and I've studied Japanese for the equivalent of 5 years. I'm currently in AP Japanese, and my test is this Thursday. Needless to say, I'm incredibly nervous. I love the Japanese language. I'm a huge language nerd, and to be honest, Japanese grammar is awesome. It's... beautiful. It's SOV and agglutinative!
Next year, I might end up studying University Japanese at the college near my school. I hope it works out :)
I'm really looking forward to this program. I was so disappointed that I couldn't go last year, so it's really heightening the excitement this year. To be honest, one thing I'm really excited about is the food. :D I'm interested in Japanese culture, and I like some contemporary Japanese literature. By the way... Last year, I went to a FANTASTIC language immersion camp in conjunction with Concordia University. It was honestly the best four weeks of my life, and I want more than anything to go back some day, maybe even as an instructor. I met so many awesome people and the teachers were excellent. They have a ton of languages, so check it out! http://www.concordialanguagevillages.org/newsite/
Hm, random stuff about me... I've played the piano since I was little, and I sing. I love music and good books. That's about it.
Now to wait for the host family information....
Hello!! Nice to meet you too! I'm super excited to go to Japan this summer. Can't wait to meet you~ :)
