Okay, so I'll write about my family here just because I feel like it right now.
I've been living with the American host family since last summer ,when I came here, and I will until around 24th of June, when I go back to Japan.
They are not my biological nor related family, but they are my family.
Mom: my 29-year-old super-cool American mom. She used to be an exchange student in Japan for a year about 8 years ago when she was in university. And after that, she visited Japan twice. Cool =] So she knows about Japan well. She's sooooo kind and generous. She works as an accountant. Mom and dad got married 2 years ago.
Dad: my 32-year-old American dad. He's in U.S. Army and he often goes overseas like Iraq, Korea, etc. He just came back from Iraq about 3 weeks ago. Well, when I came here, he was in Iraq and I first met him 3 months later. And he had been here for 3 months. But during that 3 month, he had to go to Georgea for 2 weeks. And then shortly after Christmas, he went to Iraq again, and came back about 3 weeks ago. He's going to go to Australia next month. Military people are busy.
Sister: my 13-year-old American sister. She's dad's real daughter, and mom's step daughter. Brat. We spend so much time together. Yeah, definetely she's my real and only sister. She likes Japanese anime and comics and loves alternative rock music such as Evanescence (Actually, I went to their concert with her. It was pretty cool). She has her real mom in Ohio, which is a northern state and she lived there with her, her husband and their children until the last summer. The only reason she came here was me. I was coming from Japan and she came here to be my host sister. Now I'm leaving, and she's going back to Ohio after I leave. (But we are planning to come back during the bacation.)
They will be my family for the rest of my life. So now I have two homes; one in Japan and one in America.
