About the Whole First Week

I'm finally able to get on the internet. I have done so many things. I found out their uncle speaks perfect English, and I went to Naha-Shoyo Highschool. The first class I had was swimming and so they all had Speedos on except me with swim trunks on. The pool was a nice break from the hot temperature of Okinawa. In Japan teachers move to different classes and the students stay in the same class most of the time. At the high school everyone stares at me because I'm American. Masato, the 17 year old brother goes to the high school with me. He introduced me to his friends, Daigo and Canno and they are pretty nice and it turns out they are on the baseball team. Naha-Shoyo is number one in baseball. They are in a tournament now so I will play Monday. It is so hard to remember their names though. I have already made through a week of school and of fish. I'm getting used to the food and the jet-lag is getting better. They stay up to one o'clock in the morning every night and aren't tired. They understood my jet-lag though. They gave me Japanese hand fan with the picture of a Siberian tiger and a dragon. It's pretty cool. The only food I absolutely can not eat is the Okinawan fruit, the Guoya, or the nick name is bitter melon. They have Guoya shakes, juices , burgers, etc. only okasan,my mom, likes it. Here they have about 200-300 movies and about 14 flat screens and 2 PS3s. So its kind of like home except a lot more expensive. Fifa is big and the father loves baseball and tomorrow I see my high school play baseball. so it going to be fun.
