I need to get a letter to my host sister who lives in Japan. I need it translated please! My computer can understand Japanese Kanji, Hirigana and Katakana, so please feel free to type this out. I can write in Kanji and so on well, I took a few classes in Japan, so don't worry, I'll be able to write this out. Sadly, I cannot speak Japanese, so I need this to be translated. (online translators like babelfish and so on aren't that great @__@)
If you could please email the translated letter to me at
[email protected] , I would greatly appreciate it!!
LETTER
Dear Tomoko,
I am very sorry that I have not written sooner, I know that almost a year has gone by. My life has been full of busy events and the likes, but I do have something good to announce. Two new members have been introduced into my family. Dolce is a Shih Tzu puppy. He is very funny when it comes to his playful antics. Trigger is my horse. I bought him in early October. He is the colour of the sun, and I know you would like him very much.
The semester is almost over school, so I am happy to be beginning a new term with new classes. School is going quite well at the moment. How is your new high school?
There is a girl in my art class name Jess. She is from Hong Kong. She is friends with Hideko who is from Japan, she reminds me of you. God, I miss your family so much.
It has been raining here a lot. Luckily on Christmas we got some snow, which is very rare in Sooke, especially on Christmas!
It's funny how sometimes I wake up in the morning, wishing for your mother's cooking. Tell her that her meals brought my stomach great joy. Also, please thank Shouko for being such a good translator. I don't think O would be able to get by without her excellent translation skills.
And Tomoko, thank you, I truly mean it. Without your help, I wouldn't be able to understand a word. Please say hello to Miku and Hikari for me, I miss them!
With love, Alex.
P.S. The spare bedroom is always open for you. I wish we had more time together, but hopefully that will change. I am holding up a job right now, so maybe I'll be able to visit someday soon.
