That is so cool that she was willing to teach you 
Is hiragana the alphabet for pronunciations? I know there are three altogether... I always enjoyed summer camp when I went as a kid but I never learned Japanese haha. It kind of amazes me that my parents could even afford to send us to camps and stuff because there were so many of us (I have ten siblings). I remember going for two years to a full time camp and then two years to a day camp through the Y, where I was a junior counsellor the third year. I really enjoyed it. I am sorry you don't see your siblings very often. I left home when I was eighteen and then came out west when I was twenty two so I barely ever see mine either, though I am not that close to some of them... I was number seven of eleven children with nineteen years between the oldest and youngest. Are you the youngest in your family? You seem very mature for your age My daughter was always like that, too
My apologies for my very delayed response. I have been fighting off something and took today off work sick and slept pretty much all day It is our busy time right now and so very inconvenient to be ill right now

I raise my own money to be able to go to camp. This summer I worked there
I am the second oldest out of 7 of us
(technically 8 but she ran away and we believe she ended her life)I have 4 brothers
A 2 year old, a nine year old, another 9 year old, and a twelve year old.
I have technically three sisters;
Dez who ran away and she was 15 while she lived with us, Charolette who is 4, and sisi or Sabrina who is 22 and in the picture with me.
The thing that's usually got to me the most about not seeing my siblings is that I'm not able to be there to watch them grow up or to be there if they need to talk or cry.
It's okay I hope you feel better!!!!
Thank you; I think I should take today off work also. I better phone in now
You are very industrious and resourceful to be supporting yourself at such a young age! The full time summer camp I went to as a really young kid, I won a couple of awards at the end of the two weeks, one for being such a good diver when I wasn't even supposed to be using the diving board, because I was so young. The second prize category they created just for me. Some kids were really fussy eaters, and I would eat what they didn't want, and won a prize for it. It is almost embarrassing to remember that now, although I was a skinny kid. Remembering the year I was a junior counsellor... the kids were so sweet, and there was one who was really shy who bonded with me. She made me feel special, which is pretty special in itself. What do you like about being a counsellor/working there?
That is really tragic about your sister running away and ending her life. Are your nine year old brothers twins? I have a twin brother. Of my three brothers, he is the youngest, but is still five minutes older than I am My four younger siblings are all sisters, and I have three older sisters as well. It is my next oldest sister's birthday today! I am sorry you don't get to be there for your siblings. I feel like I am missing part of the story but don't want to pry. Still, I hope you are able to spend some time with them.
I hope your side/rib is feeling better!

I was kinda forced into getting a job when my step mother gained custody. My medical bills cost so much and she was having trouble paying bills and rent and her husband refused to get a job, so I started babysitting as much as I could, I worked on a farm for a little, now I teach violin lessons. I have some money saved up for camp (the manager and I are also buddies haha)
Lol that's funny!!
I love being apart of staff there!!!!!!
When I was a camper I grew very close to a Councelor (she was the one who teaches me Japanese) and she helped me through many things that were going on in my life, and now being a Councelor allows me to do that for other campers which to me is so amazing. I had one girl come up to me to talk cuz she missed her sister who she hadn't seen in years and after I talked to her she followed me the rest of camp and came up and gave me a hug whenever she saw me. It's so rewarding!!!!
The staff really like me as well. The Program staff that was supervising me went up to the manager and told her that I was doing really good and the manager pulled me aside and told me that she had a bunch of staff come up to her and tell her about how caring I am to the kids and she said she thinks everyone has a lot to learn from me. So that was a huge self confidence boost haha.
Yeah her running away was super hard on me but time and God heals hurting hearts
No haha they are not twins. That's so cool!! Oh well happy birthday to her!!!!
Haha you are missing a lot of the story. I don't mind sharing my full story, but it's pretty long so I don't share it unless people don't mind reading all of that haha.
My side still hurts quiet a bit. I need to figure out how to get this to stop hurting cuz i have vball tryouts in a few days and I don't think my side is gonna help.
Thank you for your prayers After sleeping for most of the day again, I do feel a bit better, and am hoping it does not go into a full blown bronchial infection, since I have COPD and any kind of bad cold or flu usually terribly incapacitates me. I have been eating garlic cloves and consuming oil of oregano and taking other natural herbal things such as echinacea and drinking lemon ginger tea with honey hoping they help stave off anything worse.
I hope you are feeling better today. Did you go to the doctor to get your side looked at?
I loved playing volleyball, and did inermurally it for five years going through school, from grades five on. I was also on the track team, running long distance. If my life depended on running today, I would be in dire trouble.
It would be an honour for me to have your share your story with me. It sounds like you have been through a lot, and are coping very well with your reliance upon God. Would you share it here, or maybe put it in the testimonies section? I was a little concerned when you named your siblings, just because this is the internet and there are weird bad people out there, not to make you paranoid, but just saying, be careful.
