Japan.

Hello Everyone,
For those who have noticed me gone missing, well... that's because I'm half way around the world now.
It's been just over a week since I made the venture out here. I stayed with family during that time, but, as of yesterday, I am on my own. I have family about an hour away, but I am staying in Kyoto and meeting many new faces. Don't know of anyone from my school, since there are only around 20 people. School is coming up fast and I have a lot more to learn about my environment.
I learned really fast how much I actually rely on English words in the Japanese marketplaces at home- I couldn't read almost anything when I went shopping for food today, and those items that had English was, of course, way to much.
My dorm feels a little like a tin can because of the loud metal door and the fact that I'm literally at the top of the stairwell where I am. It's pretty noisy here with the passing cars, but there is a neat temple across the street I'll have to check out.
Gonna be honest. I'm feeling REALLY homesick.
Hope you all are well, good luck in all you do.
