My Day, in Japanese
きょう、はちじはんいおきました。バイオロジのクラスへいきました。そろから、ひるごはんをたべました。ワフルをたべました！ワフルがだいすきです！ごぜんじゅうじからごごじゅうにじまでねました。それから、にほんごのクラスへいきました。クラスで、がくせいのポッドキャストをききました。おもしろいですね！Actingのクラスへいきめせんでした。そのこわりにしゅくだいをしました！はちじに、Sci Fi Clubへいきました。All in all, I had a very good day! いま、ねます。さようなら！
Gothic Lolita
You know what really stinks? The fact that clothes like this would never fly in America:
Or like this:
These outfits are examples of a style called Gothic Lolita that is pretty much unique to Japan. It's influenced by rococo & Victorian fashion. Usually the colors used are black & white, but sometimes red, green, blue, or violet might be seen. There's lots of frills, full skirts, lace headdresses, and flat shoes. But Gothic Lolita isn't just a style of dress; it's a whole personality. The ideal Gothic Lolita girl is always very cheerful and polite. She tries to see the best in everyone and everything. She enjoys dainty, feminine activities like having tea parties or knitting in the garden. HOW ADORABLE IS THAT?! Fashion in Japan is really incredible in general, but Gothic Lolita is my favorite style of all.
In the anime world, Misa Amane from Death Note is an example of a Gothic Lolita girl:
Too bad Misa just happens to be a little bit twisted...!

さくぶん：てがみ
やまださんへ、
こんいちは！わたしはモトーラアリスです。ニュージャージーからきました。らいねんのなつ、にほんへいきます。わたしはコロンビアだいがくのにねんせいです。せんこうはシアタとバイオロジーです。にほんごもべんきょうします！にほんごのクラスでいまかんじをならいます。かんじはむずかしいですが、おもしろいです。だいがくのせいかつはいそがしいですが、たのしいです。わたしのへやがすきです。そして、しょくどうのたべものはおいしいです。ニューヨークのせいかつはにぎやかですが、とてもたかいです！ときどき、ダンスをします。ダンスがじょうずです。でも、スポーツがあまりじょうずじゃありません。。。ぜんぜんしません！
ろくがつよっかにひこうきでにほんへきます。よろしくおねがいします！
ありがとうございます、
モトーラアリス

New York Anime Festival
Hey everyone!
New York has long been lacking a serious anime festival, but this year, we're finally getting one -- and it's going to be HUGE. It's happening December 7th-9th at the Jacob Javits Center, which is this gigantic convention hall... I went there for Comic Con last year, it's a really big deal. So I am super super excited of course! Day passes are only $30, not really that bad for cosplays, panel discussions, screenings, and all that jazz. My best friend and I are definitely going... I don't know what day yet, but anyone who wants to join us is totally welcome! Yay. <333
