Let's start with the update since there's not much to update on:
Basically I got back to Japan and for a whole week stayed home-_-.  The Sat. after I came back though I met up with a friend and went to eat and walk around Shibuya.  It was nice^0^  Then came another week of me staying at home-_- So boring!!! But that weekend I met with my friend Chuti and ate lots of Thai food^0^ Awwwww.....I'm gonna miss her so much!!!!!!  Then the week after I went to Harajuku with my friends from the dorm...or at least with the ones who are still here.  It was fun, but I spent too much money I think >_<  Then that Friday I went to Gunma and hungout with Tricia.  The next day I went to Kusatsu to the sulfur hotsprings with Naoki.  That was a lot of fun because after the hotsprings we went to walk around and ended up at a park where we just played on the kids games lol So childish, but so much fun^0^  Then this past monday I went to Naoki's graduation and gave him a graduation gift.  It was kind of boring but also amazing because everyone look so nice!!! Guys in suits and the girls in their Yukatas^0^

Now to the plane story of about a month ago:
So basically when I got to the airport in Narita to leave I though I had everything set and was an 1hr early as I was supposed to be.  When I got there though I couldn't find the table where I was supposed to check-in so I asked the staff.  They made me go from table to table for about 20min-_-  When I finally got to the right table they told me that I need my reentry permit...but I didn't have it because I though I didn't need since I had a multi-entry visa.  So about 20min before boarding the lady who was checking me in took me to the small immigration office that's in the airport.  I was able to get the reentry permit and then left to board the plane.  I got there at the last call and about 5min after that the plane started to move!!! I almost lost my flight-_-  But it all went well and I was able to get to San Diego safely ^0^  So that's my small story about my flight^^  Hopefully it doesn't happen again lol  I'll get my reentry permit on time lol

Jan. 2nd- Went all night karaoke with Anthony and his friend from America, Masa and Dobi.  It was fun, but my throat hurt so much after-_-
Jan. 3rd- Went clubing with Lisa, Anthony, Monique, and Masa. We left early though-_- Lisa and I weren't really up to dancing all night...
Jan. 9th- Went to a bar with Ami, Rina and a few others. It was fun and relaxing.
Jan. 12th- I went to Karaoke again but this time with Megu, Zarrah, Paige, Yu and Keitaro^0^
Jan. 13th- Went to a coins bar with a whole bunch of Jap. people who had studied at SDSU last year.  It was so much fun, but so tiring because many were just speaking in Jap.-_-
Jan. 16th- I went clubing again^0^  This time with Naoki, Justin and Walid...I was the only girl.  But it was fun!!!
Jan. 17th- Since it was Roy's birthday we went to a pub and celebrated.  It was such a small place so we ended up filling up the whole entrance.  One of the guys even bought a cake^_^
Jan. 19th- Since it was the last day of one of my Jap. classe the teacher decided to invite the whole class to eat!!! We went to Kua Aina, a burger place that's so good!!!
Jan. 24th- Steven decided to have a party at his work place.  Practically all the exchange students and many Jap. students from AGU were there.  I had a lot of fun even though I didn't get to speak to everyone.

I still have more week left in Jan. so I'll update on that week when it is over.  Sadly since I don't have a lot of money (because of all the things I did already) I probably won't do much.  I'll try and right my 2000word report.  shouldn't be too hard^^

Lyrics (In Spanish)

DESDE EL CIELO UNA HERMOSA MAÑANA (2)
             
LA GUADALUPANA, LA GUADALUPANA

LA GUADALUPANA BAJO AL TEPEYAC (2)

Suplicante juntaba sus manos (2)
Y eran mexicanos, y eran mexicanos
Y eran mexicanos su porte y su faz (2)

Su llegada llenó de alegría(2)
De luz y armonía, de luz y armonía
De luz y armonía todo el Anahuac (2)

Junto al monte pasaba Juan Diego(2)
Y acercose luego, y acercose luego
Y acercose luego al oír cantar (2)

Juan Dieguito la Virgen le dijo (2)
Este cerro elijo, este cerro elijo
Este cerro elijo para hacer mi altar (2)

En la tima entre roasa pintadas(2)
Su imagen amada su imagen amada
Su imagen amada se digno dejar(2)

Desde entonces para el Mexicano(2)
Ser Guadalupano, ser gGuadalupano
Ser Guadalupano es algo esencial(2)


Extremely Ruff Translation
From the sky a beautiful morning(2)
The Guadalupana, The Guadalupana
The Guadalupana came down to Tepeyac

Praying she put her hands together(2)
And they were Mexican, and they were Mexican
And they were Mexican. Her porte and face(2)

Her arrival filled with joy,(2)
Light and harmony, light and harmony
Light and harmony all the Anahuac

Next to the Mt. passed Juan Diego(2)
And then got closer, and then got closer
And then got closer when he heard her sing(2)

"Juan Diegito" the Virgin told him(2)
"This hill I choose," this hill I choose"
"This hill I choose to make my altar"(2)

In the "tima" between roses painted,(2)
Her loved image, her loved image
Her loved image she imprinted(2)

Since then to the Mexican(2)
To be Guadalupano, to be Guadalupano,
To be Guadalupano is something essential(2)
