My mom and the host family

I had a great conversation with my mom. I haven't spoken to her in months and it feels great. Before I came to Japan, my mom advised me to stay in the dorms and not stay with a host family. Of course, I didn't take that advice because I wanted to have a unique experience by staying with a host family and having them show me the things of Japan that normally tourists can't see! Well, of course I didn't realize that but not all host families are good. There are actually some mean host families out there! To be frank not everyone is meant to be a host family. I feel that if you're not open minded and expect someone by your "definition" to be perfect then you're not cut out to be a host family period! But yes, unfortunately I had a very bad host family. Due to the fact that I slept walk well more of a scream once due to culture shock in 2 weeks they wanted me out! Yes, in 2 weeks they wanted me out. How rude is that. You don't even know more but yet you think you do. But other than that, I felt that they didn't see my good qualities that I posess! I cooked them american food and I help cleaned. Yes, I helped clean! I was also very respectful and get this I actually spoke to them alot. The biggest complaint among host families is that their kids don't talk alot! Well, honey I gave them an earful and I spoke about my experience and everything I got into the groove. Some people believe that my host family wanted me to have a better experience. Ok well if that is the case then after I moved out why didn't they call me?! Why didn't they check up on me when I moved to my new place?! Why didn't they at least take me out to dinner to make sure I was well adjusted?! I didn't recieve any of that what so ever because that would of been the thing to do if they really cared! So other than that, I spoke to my mom about that and of course she gave me that "I told you so" talk but we reconnected in a way that it was amazing. I was soo happy to be able to talk to her. I feel my relationship has improved with her in many ways. Plus she's going to send me more goodies too. I can see why she wanted me to live in the dorms because she feels it's wierd to stay in a stranger's home and that by me living in the dorms I can stay on campus and do activities. Plus it is very convienent too! Yeah, I admit it I am more of a dorm person because I put myself out there and I love talking to others. I'm an open book and a great friend! But yes, after that hardship till' this day I still feel they have no business being a host family. Don't get me wrong there are host students that are very rude like bringing in their boyfriend or girlfriend! How dare you do that?! That is the most rudest thing I've ever heard but I have gossip so if you want to know please message me because ooo I will tell you in a heartbeat. But yea, it was nice speaking to my mom since I haven't spoken to her in months! I love my mom and I vow to talk to her more often for now on!
