The Japanese students are in Texas!

Konnichiwa! (which is hello in Japanese pronounced koe-ni-chi-wah) I am EXTREMELY lucky to be part of an awesome Japanese exchange program at school. On Friday, ten Japanese students flew in to San Antonio after being on a plane for 12 hours!!! They get to hang out with us all week long, attending our classes and going out around San Antonio at night. In the spring, I and 9 of my classmates will get to visit Japan. Exciting, huh?

This year, my exchange student's name is Yoshimi! She is super sweet and knows some English!
As you can see, the peace sign is a popular thing. They immediately throw the deuce when posing for a picture.
In Japan, these kids go straight from high school into a 6 year dental school program. They NEVER touch an actual person til they graduate...only manikins.
Moral of the story: don't get dental work in Japan.
