My favorite summer memory (week 3)

         My favorite vacation memory is which I had been to Osaka with Syun. I have stayed Osaka with him twice. For the first time, we stayed his friend's apartment becasue he let us stay. We walked around Osaka. We visited Osaka Castle, Namba, Kaiyukan which is an aquerium. Some of his friend came and saw us when we visited Osaka. Second time, we stayed at an Hotel for the first time. We have been planning to what to do at Osaka and where to visit. First day, we went to Yoshimoto Shinkigeki which is comedy show. After that, his friend, Kenshiro, Ryouhei and Daisuke, came to gathered and I had dinner with them. We do not well about Osaka. Therefore, they led us where we should take a train, which train we should get into.

2014/10/06 Diary - Week 2

EVENT 1 : I went to college by bicycle

Today, I went to KGU by bicycle because I did not have to work. It took about 20 minutes to get there. I used to go to Shokei high school by bicycle and it took about 20 minutes. (Oh no, it took same time!!!!) I was little bit surprised about that. I went back to Syun's house with Syun, also he came to KGU by bicycle. I took a rest and I went back to my home. It took about 50 minutes to get home. I had good exercise and I had good time with him. Therefore, I want to buy a cross bike and go to KGU by it if I do not have to work or if I have time to ride.

EVENT 2 : I had dinner with friends
Last Wednesday, I did not have to work but I had to attend an orientation about education on 5th period. After that, I went downtown with Syun to meet his friend, Daisuke. We went bowling and played 5 games. After we enjoyed playing it, we went to Hamakatsu, cutlet restaurant. Whenever I go there, cutlets are nice. What's more, I can have second helping (okawari in Japanese) for free, except cutlets. After that, we went back home and said goodbye, I went to a hot spring. I went to Ikkyu where I usually go. I enjoyed day off.

EVENT 3 : I went to TOYOPET
 Last Friday, I went to TOYOPET to inspect my car. It was for free and it took about 30 minutes. After finished checking, a maintenance man washed my car for free. My car was duty because of the rain. Therefore I wanted to wash my car, but he did. After that, I went back home and had a nap until I had to work.

EVENT 4 : For the first time
Today, I went to meet Syun, Kohei and Hozumi at their house and went bowling at Spola. That was the first time to play with them. I did not have a good score on each game. After that, we went upstairs and played billiards and darts. Hozumi had to go back home little earlier so I took him to his house. Besides, I took Kohei to his house too. Then Syun and I went to Asahi which is a bicycle shop because I wanted to buy a bicycle to go to college. I did not decide which one I wanted to buy, but I am going to go there on next Wednesday.


EVENT 5 : book review
I read a book, All About Ashley, I own. It is written in Japanese and English. I did not look at Japanese sentences because I wanted to understand the meaning in English. This book made a deep impression on me. Ashley has Progeria and it is a rapid aging disease. She is not afraid of dying because she thinks it does not make sense to be afraid of dying. I am afraid of dying because.... I do not know exactly. Last July, my grandmother died and I still think about her. Whenever I think about her I always cry. Dying is like losing I think. Therefore I was impressed with Ashley's though.

My favorite elementary school memory (week 2)

         My favorite  elementary school memory is which I was scolded by my favorite teacher. I took Kanji test and I had confidence in my Kanji, but what I wrote was not good style and my favorite teacher wanted me to write Kanji in good shape and properly. I didn't accept her opinion and suggestion because I had confidence in my Kanji and I thought I got 100 ten. I felt angry what she said and she called me and scolded in front of other classmates and I couldn't apologize to her about my wrong Kanji. I still remember what she said to me. At first, she got angry at my Kanji but little by little, she got angry at my behavior,

My favorite class (week 1)

       My favorite class is of course learning English. There are four classes to learn about English: reading, listening, writing and speaking. I like reading some story in textbooks. What's more, I can learn some true story from it. I am not good at writing because I don't like grammar and I don't really care about it when I speak English. The most important thing is speaking I think. When we talk to someone, we communicate with speaking. If I want to say something, I speak. Also, listening is important. When we talk, we speak and listen to someone speak. Speaking and listening is really necessary things to communicate with someone. If I can't speak English, I can't communicate with foreigner and if I

Something special I did during this vacation (week E)

     What I did something special during this vacation was I decided to by a car for my own. We already have a car for family but my brother uses it almost every day to go to his office. So I couldn't drive a car when I wanted to go shopping, go to hot spring, go somewhere with my friend. I understand that it is unnecessary for student like me to have their own car, but I have no choice. Of course I'm going to pay all by myself getting a loan. I have to pay about 30000 yen for a month and

Good and bad points about summer (week D)

     The good points about summer are for students, they don't need to go to school in hot weather. Most students go to school by bike or walk. If the sun shines hard, they feel hot and don't want to walk or go out. Also they have much free time to play with their friends, go to somewhere as a travel or work to earn much money. In addition, they have time so sleep well because they are in summer vacation. But the opposite, bad points is their life style might be changed so big. They don't need to get up early to be in time for 1st period

How I study during the vacation (week C)

     I will study English using text books which I used when I was a high school student. I think I have to look grammar over again if I really want to be a teacher and teach English but also to improve my English skills. Not only grammar but also listening ability is also important thing. So I need to listen to music, TV show or radio to improve my Listening ability. Also I have better to meet and talk with someone who speak English. I like to listen to music and the news on TV when someone talks in English, not dubbing into Japanese.  Or I have some foreign DVDs so I have chances to watch those at home. To improve English 

2014/09/29 Diary - Week 1

EVENT 1 : Eat Yakiniku and meet Kai san
I went to West Yakiniku which located at Ohzu with Syun and Hozumi. For them it was first time to go there but I wasn't. We ate Yakiniku and desserts watching TV and chatting. After we finished eating, we went and saw Kai san who used to work at Shinseido which Syun works at. He graduated from KGU and he was kind to us when he worked at Shinseido. When we visited him, he bought two ice creams for us. I was given energy from him by chatting with him.

EVENT 2 : Autumn Equinox Holiday
Last Tuesday, it was the Autumn Equinox Holiday so I had no school. But unfortunately, I had to work from 5 p.m., until then, I spent time with Syun. We studied and took a nap and then we had to work. I have to work almost every day. I have a few days off a week. I have to pay more than 30000 yen a month for my own car so I need to work to make and save money.

EVENT 3 : Application for studying
I want to be a teacher for future and I need to study for it. In KGU, they offer student courses to study. They offered me a nice course. I need to study about how to take an examination for service to become a teacher. They open this course for free. That is good for me to save money so I applied for this.

EVENT 4 : Chatting with my best friends
Last Friday, I met and chatted with my best friends, Haru and Misato, at Joyfull. We were Shokei students and we live same area, so we would often go back home together. But now, we are different college students so we can not see each other so often. We sometimes gather and chat for mor that 2 hours at Joyfull. We talk about events, future, school, friends and so on. We always have good time when we gather.

EVENT 5 : Selling old clothes
I went to Guruguru Soko which sells and buys used things, for example, clothes, shoes, bags, comic books. I sold about 10 clothes I do not wear recently and those were bought by just 100 yen. I was surprised at that price. I do not want to sell clothes at that store anymore. I want to bring used clothes to other store which collect and bring them to developing countries. 

What classes I will take next term (week B)

     Next term I will take almost same classes, but next term I don't need to take first period on Tuesday and Wednesday. Compared with last term, I will take a few new classes, Law class, Child-English Education primer and Special-Activity Study. The former, Law class is said that easy to take and interesting. The two latter are necessary classes to become a teacher. Speaking, Writing, Listening and Reading classes are necessary classes to graduate and those are helpful for me.
     What makes me disappoint is I have to take 3rd period on Friday. Last term I didn't have 3rd period on Friday and I had free time on weekend Also, I have 5th period on Thursday.
