There's a very strange girl in town.

Mmmm.... finally something to break up the monotony of this boring week. There's a new girl from Japan in town, and the circumstances surrounding her arrival are really weird. First of all, prior to her arrival, she signed off an email with the name 'Takako,' which was not in the school's system. Bill, the guy in charge of Japanese students (yeah just Japanese students. He has a thing for Japanese girls...) had to tell her that her name was not on the school's system and ask her for her name again. This time, she gave her name as 'Saori,' but the telephone number that she gave was wrong. She says that the telephone number error was a typo. Now, it gets weirder. When she arrives, and one meets one of my Japanese friends, she doesn't ask about Auburn, the States, the school or whatever. She asks my friend to tell her about herself. She speaks fluent English, which is uncommon for students who came straight from Japan without spending highschool somewhere in the states. Also, she claims not to have spoken English in Japan. Another thing weird about this girl is that she doesn't shop. She just buys. She doesn't even browse through the items, and just walks up and asks someone in the store if they have what she wants. Extremely efficient.
Some of the more theories that the twins and Naoko (another Japanese friend) came up with (ok ok I was also involved) is that she may be 1)a government witness under witness protection 2)a spy 3)an undercover FBI/CIA/Interpol agent, 4) an alien (yeah those things from space, not Vietnam 5)an MIB 6) a daugher of a yakuza boss 7) a yakuza boss.
Also, I have come to the conclusion that people with nothing better to do will tend to poke their noses into other people's businesses.
