New country, new experiences, new school

Hi there!
   Right now i'm at Caracas, Venezuela, just came here about 6 days ago. Everything is pretty new to me, such as the language, traditions, culture, and school but i am starting to get the hang of it little by little. Today is my 2nd day of school, and I am looking forward to my up coming classes, and meeting tons of amazing new people!

    Let me start by talking a bit about myself. Before I came to Caracas, Venezuela, i used to live in the US for about 3 years. I must say it was a very nice place to live. Before i lived in the states, i have also lived in Tokyo, Japan for about 7 years. Things where very different in Japan compared to America, such as how we needed to use uniforms and classes were more difficult. Before i lived in Japan, i used to also live in Boston for about 2 years. Living in Boston gave me an opportunity to learn English very well, and effects the way i am today.

    So since i just talked about my past, let me talk about my personality, interests, and stuff like that. I consider my self a bit shy at first, but once i am out of my shell I am pretty LOUD and love to laugh all the time! I also consider myself friendly. By the way i love friends! I always spend time with them and talk to them about a lot of things that go on in my life. An instrument i can play is the guitar(I just started a few months ago).  My dad encourages me to practice at least three times a week. I am not that good at playing the guitar yet, but i am starting to improve... My favorite sport is basketball. I used to play in the basketball team in my old school, so i might try out this coming season in my new school. One thing I love to do in my free time is read. I always read books that my dad recommends, which most of the time are very interesting. One book I have read recently is "Outliers: The Story of Success" by Malcolm Gladwell.  I might write a review about the book in my upcoming blogs.

   So anyway that was my first attempt in writing a blog, hopefully it was good! My blog will pretty much be about what comes to my mind, and i hope you'll find it really interesting. Bye guys, and see ya later!

xoxo, Justme
