language exchanges missed and recieved

I slept through the time I would usually talk to Bryan and Mom today. That was frustrating, but I did get a lot else accomplished. I came to school and found that I had gotten a reply to my language exchange. I quickly completed my errands for the day and showered, did some of my homework and headed out to meet the guy who had e-mailed me. My first language exchange was a really good experience. I got help with my homework and met someone who was willing to force me to speak Japanese, as much as I resisted, at times. He’s about 27 and spent a year in Australia, so beyond Japanese he has a lot to teach me. Also, he was a philosophy major in college, so I think it will be interesting to see where our conversations take us. I’m looking forward to doing more language exchanges in the future, though I am a little bogged down right now with e-mails. It’s a swarm of people all at once, and I am not sure which exchanges will turn out the best, so it’s confusing. But I have plenty more e-mails to respond to. I guess we will see.
