Speaking Partner

I've been waiting for a few days now on my speaking partner information. The speaking partners program facilitates international students with Kansai Gaidai students depending on what kind of relationship they are looking for. I signed up for a"study and friend activities" kind of partner. ... That sounded a little odd, hmm I guess I'll word it this way: I put on my application that I would like to make friends with the speaking partner and do normal friend activities with them. I listed things like eating lunch together, shopping, studying, going out, etc. I figure I don't want to just hang out with international students the whole time and this will help me speak Japanese better. Anyway I got this email today saying that there are still 40 Kansai students waiting for international students to apply and that international students can apply for a second partner if they wished. I thought it would be great to have more than one in case one partner doesn't work out or something so I applied a second time and now will have to wait a few more days to find out about who my partners will be.

8 more days!!
