Plane ride and Arrival

So much to blog...I should start keeping a journal around with me and writing down everything I want to blog! Anyways, my host family is taking me to Osaka Castle (大阪城) here pretty soon, so I might have to break this up into multiple blogs.

So, the flight here was pretty...horrible actually. Like, I'm-going-to-die horrible. The panic attack wasn't that bad during take-off, but the absolute dullness and the length of the flight just about killed me. I watched Puss in Boots, Twilight: Breaking Dawn, Be My Pet (Korean Kimi ha Petto with Jang Geun Suk), and Happy Feet Two. I debated watching Abduction, but I was absolutely dying. I couldn't read because I kept getting motion sickness (who'd've thought that could happen the same in planes as in cars) and the seat wasn't all that comfortable either. >< Then, the guy next to me accidentally SMASHED my headphones and snapped one of the earbuds into pieces!! This caused me to be capable of hearing the incessant chatter of the high schoolers next to me (one guy over) and I wanted to shoot them at least 3 times. They were so much worse than the children!! There were 3-4 tiny ones on the plane, and they were so much fun! Hahaha. I never actually got to talk to them or anything, but one bumped into me a couple times and gave me the cutest little smile! Anyway, I finally got to Seoul (their airport is AMAZING) and waited for my delayed plane. (There was a playground with a slide and everything for the chibis!!! So cool~) I wish I had waited to exchange my money here, because they allowed me to exchange $10 in won (delayed plane=starving Laura) whereas I had to exchange $150 into ONE 10,000 bill...which is too big to actually use anywhere. (-_-)

Once I got to Japan, I was rushing around everywhere to make my shuttle stop. I was very, very irritable and got lost in the airport twice before I finally managed to find the bus stops and a nice man helped me. Once I was on the bus, we were about to leave with this guy walks onto the bus with a Kwansei Gakuin and asks if I'm Laura. Apparently, he was there to make sure I found the bus, but for whatever reason wasn't in the area with all the other guys with signs (I looked just in case they sent someone) (-_-). I got to Bellevue around 11:30, took a shower and went to bed...Only to wake up 3 hours later.　＿|￣|○ Jetlag wouldn't let me or Diana (my roommate) go back to sleep, so we just talked about literally everything that came to mind for hours. At 9, we went downstairs and got on the bus where I met a couple more people. Daejin (new friend), Diana and I talked to the entire way one and a half hour drive to the school~ It was a ton of fun!!
