Then when I went back home my house was hiring a birthday party for my mom’s friend who just turned 50. She has a Korean friend that made Tteokbokki for us and they also made Takoyaki but unfortunately I missed it :(.  But it’s okay! Because I also got to try on a Yukata today and it was so beautiful :3c

Isabella:In the morning we went to go plan rice paddies and it was super fun yet dirty!! We saw tons of cool bugs and even crayfish. At the rice paddy area, we had a potluck and it was really fun having so many people there (Saphira, Emma, Chai, Bodhi, me, and our host families). Afterwards, we all went walking together and ran down a large hill. For dinner, we had a takoyaki and ramen party. Sora (host sister) invited some friends and we listened to Bruno Mars together. I taught them how to make origami, too.

Txuj Ci：Today, I went to the Library and Art Museum Ota with my host family, and it was huge! There were tons of books, and the building was very impressive and beautiful. After that, we drove to Mos Burger, and I got the Mos Cheeseburger with fries and a melon soda. We ate the food at a nearby park and played a block throwing game together and my team won! Although something happened to the tire so we had to get it replaced, and in the meantime, I walked with Kaede to Book Off and I bought some things, but the price is a secret. Finally we returned home and made takoyaki together, it was very delicious!

Emma：I went to my host sisters basketball game in the morning which they won, and later went to a big shopping mall where I went to a huge gacha store!
