Kombanwa mina-san! Good evening all!
Boku wa Jeremi desu! I'm Jeremy!
Welcome to my new blog dedicated towards my future exchange to Japan, for a whole year in 2011, the 28th March! This will be quite an exciting moment, one that that will be a life changing, culture immersive, and simply awesome experience! Because my exchange will be such an exciting event, I wouldn't want anyone to not experience it themselves. So, "How will I do this?" I thought... I got it! A blog. A blog will allow me to post diaries of my daily and weekly occurances of my life in Japan!
"So, why are you setting this up now, then?" I can hear reverberating throughout many of your intentive minds. Well, simply because the preparation for the exchange, will just be nearly as exciting! Fundraising, Japanese language learning, learning about Japan's culture etc etc will all be interesting aspects of this preparation process! This blog will be updated weekly, sometimes even more than that with useful tads of information about Japanese language, culture, and my fundraising processes~! Won't this be awesome? Yes! It will be ;) . I'll also make this blog as interactive as possible, posting polls, videos, competitions and other interesting and immersive activities!
I have recently set-up my youtube channel, JeremiDesuYo, in preparation for all of the video creations! There are a few videos on there right now regarding Japan, check them out!
During my exchange, I'll be posting many video diaries of my life in Japan, even taking videos of my Japanese school and friends, places of interests, exciting events and festivals in Japan etc!
I'll be taking advantage of this channel before I go too!, I'll try and get a video recorder asap to make it as interesting as humanly possible ;)
You want to know more about me, you say? Sure! I'm Jeremy, I'm 16 and I currently go to a college called Bishop Viard College, which is located in Porirua, New Zealand. Yep, I'm a kiwi, heh. My exchange will be taking place through the awesome high school year exchange programme, E.F. highschool year exchange ( visit www.ef.com for more information, and if you're interested in partaking in an exchange to almost any nation!).Raising the funds to go, may take some effort, but I've already raised atleast half of the required funds so far and have been accepted into the programme (with flying colours, I might add ;P), so it's inevitable that I'll be going! How will I be raising the excess money? Fundraising and part-time work (which you will frequently be updated of!).
So, if you want to learn the elegant, and awesome language of Japanese with me,
experience Japan itself, learn of Japan's interesting culture, and simply be involved in an exciting experience, then, this is the blog to frequently visit!
