July 22th (homestay)

At length, the day we participate in the homestay program in Minnesota came. Yurika’s family took me to Kumamoto Airport to get together at am 8:30.

After we got together and listened to some advices from trip agent, we went to Narita Airport by air plane. At lunch, I was going to eat Japanese food because I will be sick of one. However a restaurant’s an omelet containing fried rice looked like delicious, so I ate it after all.

At pm 4:00, we took off for Minnesota, and it started a flight trip which took 13 hours. It was too cold on DELTA plane due to we were on high up in the sky and temperature was too row. I couldn’t sleep well because it was too cold, so I got up every 2 hours. On airplane we could listen to music and watched movie whenever we want to. I watched 2 movies on airplane. One was “Carl’s flying house”. I have ever watched it when I was a high school second student with my friend. It was so fun. Another was “Twilight –breaking hearts-“I had been thinking “I want to watch it, but I had no time and it was a new DVD in Japan, so I couldn’t watch it. But I found in airplane, so I watched it. I was glad to watch it. While watching, I was so surprised the end of it because it came to an unexpected ending. And it was difficult for me to understand the all story because it was spoken with English and it had no subtitle. After long 13 hours flight, we arrived at Minnesota Airport. Carl and Elizabeth Patten met me at the airport. They are very kind people; I think I’ll get together with each other.
After coming back home, we went to picnic. We ate dinner with each host families and we introduced each Japanese culture presentation to our host families. Homestay life just starts today. I want to have enjoyable time with my host family and Bethel University in Minnesota. I will make effort to understand English more than now.  (353/991 words)
