So, Kinu arrived about, eh...alittle less then two weeks ago. She's such a shy little thing. I've been looking after her as Shouko goes about her daily duties and such. I was very happy to finally have a sister...It's like having a baby, that isn't nessicarily yours.

Anyway, Kinu has been on the verge of learning english, unfortunantly, she isn't excelling as quickly as we had hoped. Kinu, you see, wants ot train to be a Geisha. So really, she's been lacking her studies in english to refine herself in being more 'Geisha-like'. I've told her time and time again, ( to the best of my abilities ) that learning english comes first. Unfortunantly, my japanese is horrible and she just looks at me and says "Nani?".

From out visits to the shop and from what Shouko's told me, Kinu has met several of the other scoops. The first scoops Kinu had met was a lad by the name of Cursed Reverse, cute kid, I was glad he knew Kinu's language, because she seemed to be struggleing when it came to conversing with one of the newer scoops, Apricot. It was cute watchign as Kinu tried to pronounce his name.

The other scoops Kinu has met was Peach and Green Apple. Peach seemed to be happy to have a tea buddy, and Green Apple was just sorta himself. Kinu has trouble with pronouncing "ch" sounds, even in her own language so for the time being she's been calling Peach "Peashy".

And then there is Bara Aisu. Shouko's friend is his mom. Shouko said she had to pull an arm and leg for Nova to get him, even had ot bash acouple of skulls in, though I don't believe it. He's a cute little fellow. He speaks english fluently, and Kinu seems to be attached to him at the hip, most likely because of their common heritage.

I'm sure once Kinu is able to read and write english properly she'll be able to tell you herself her own feeligns and thoughts. For now...I seem to be her translator.

It's been awhile since I update this journal for Kinu. So many things have happened since the last update, be sure of that. Kinu is learning english very well, she can form full sentences now, even if they make little to know sense to someone who can speak english fluently.

Our home was broken into several weeks back, luckily none of Kinu's things were taken. I'm sure she would be devastated if they did. She loves the few things she owns greatly.

In better news, Kinu is to be married to alittle scoop named Bara Aisu. I've seen him before, he's such a cutie. Kinu seemed to be greatly happy about ti and promptly told Peach and Green Apple.

Speaking of Peach and GA, they got a new sister, her name is Retetsu. she seemed abit odd, but Kinu finds her funny. She was also spending a great deal fo time with GA last night. I think Ga hits Kinu's fancy, in some ways.

Kinu's been quite busy of late, she's made acouple new friends, Penut Butter Cup Perfection and the newest scopp, Black Currant. She seems to love her two new friends greatly, whenever Perfection is around she calls out 'Fection!!' and goes over to give her little prince friend a hug while she plays her piano.

The other, Black Currant. It's so adorable, whenever they're together. kinu adores his ability to do magic, she even wants her own. Her 'Kinu magics'. It's wrong to poke fun at her for the way she says it, but it's adorable. She's got Black Currant so many gifts, Kinu must truly think he can teach her magic, the way she has been trying to win him over with it. Though, Black Currant has given his share of gifts to her, he made her this ice bunny that she walks around with constantly, and a glass rose, she has me put it in her hair every morning.

She seems very happy with her new friends. Hopefully she'll be equally happy when she moves in with Van and me into his home. We're getting married afterall, but I'll speak more about that in my own journal, not Kinu's. Hopefully Kinu will be more apt to learning to write and read english instead of just speaking it once we move in with Van. I'm sure he'll want to help...

Other then that, it's life as usual for Kinu. She's been practicing her dancing and flower arrangements like mad recently. She even gave Black Currant a performance of her wind dance. It was cute, he seemed so entranced afterwards.
