Hello everyone I just wanted to

Washington. D C at Georgetown
University from June 17-21 There
we had intense classes on the
language, culture, and daily life We
attended a reception in our honor at
the Japanese Embassy and even had
die chance to speak with the Am
ha evador himself One day was spent
on Captail H ill, visiting our Senators
and setting in on congress (They
were debating the new Ta» B ill )
Deana Nakata. the other scholar
ship recipient from Oregon. 2nd I
did not get a chance to speak with
Packwood because he was debating
“ on the floor " We did thinigh. get
a personal inters lew with Hatificld
And whoever from the Oregon
Wheat League who called my name
in Hatfield's office and whom I
never got to see you scared me out
o f my socks It's a «null world isn't
n '
On Saturday. June 2 1. we flew to
New York and took the 14 hour
flight (non stop) to Tokyo There is
I6 hour time difference between
Japan and Oregon, so we just about
skipped a day
The following morning we had
breakfast (American style) at the
U S Embassy We were given an
uplifting speech by Ambassador
Mansfield on (he importance o f our
friendship with Japan From there
we visited the Diet (Japan's Parli
menu hut it was not in session due
to the upcoming double election We
also visited their Supreme Court and
Department o f Education
Tuesday morning we were all up
bright and early to hid our farewells
to our newly made friends and go
our separate ways I took a one hour
plane flight North to Akita, a
beautiful city o f 300,000 on the Sea
o f Japan nestled up against the
mountains I was met at the airport
by my host mother (My Okasani and
my host sister. Yuko Afler lunch I
went to my new high school. Seirei
(Holy Ghost) It is a private, all girls
Catholic school
My class had known I was com
ing and I was greeted with cheers
and giggles At first I thought I'd
flubbed my line “ konichiwa." hut
I realized later that they only giggle
because they arc shy
I am now a full time student and
w ill he until July 20-summer vacu
non I go to different English classes
and help students with tJieir pronun
ciation During other classes I work
on my Japanese either alone or with
the help o f one o f the English

also a chance I may visit an
agricultural high school
Yes, I've eaten sushi, raw oc
topus. seaweed, and many other
things that I have no idea what At
first I didn't care for them, but I'm
starting to really like them-except the
raw octopus-a little too chewy

I hope that its bountiful with no fires

Have a great summer and I 'll see
