have a sweet dream: 9月 2011

I went to the ground to watch the baseball game in September. My boyfriend took part in the game. I like to watch his play and I wanted to make friends in the club. I made two friends during the game. They are girlfriends of his teammates. They are very cheerful and cute. We talked about our boyfriends, baseball, and so on. One day, we didn't watch a game. But the team won by six runs. We were very happy to watch the result. I'm looking forward to watching the baseball game again. I hope I also make friends next time. The team's managers are very pretty too.

Something special I did during vacation

Something special I did during vacation is to go to Minnesota. I had very precious time there with my host family. First of all, of course I spoke English all day. I'm not good at speaking English, but I tried to talk with my host many times. My host mother is very kind because when I didn't understand her talk, she spoke more slowly and more easier to understand for me. Second, I experienced canoeing in the class. I had never done canoeing so I was very excited. The canoeing was calm and beautiful because of Minnesota's nature. I want many beautiful nature in my city. Lastly, I went to Lake Superior with my host. The lake is too large to take a picture. It looks like the ocean. I want to go to Minnesota again.

Good and bad points about summer

I think bad points about summer are very hot, humid, and that ultraviolet rays is very strong. I'm afraid of getting sunburned. Whenever I go out, I apply sunscreen to my skin. And I didn't like to go out. But I like it now because of my boyfriend. He is very active and he likes to go out. By the way, I think good points about summer are many recreations. For example, going to the sea, a barbecue, many beautiful trees, crimbing the mountain, the summer festival, fireworks, and so on. I went to the sea three times last summer. And I enjoyed a barbecue with my boyfriend and his family in this summer. I also went to the summer festival. I'm looking forward to coming summer every year.

How I study during the vacation

I studied about American things during the summer vacation. First of all, American traffic is very different from Japanese. I knew that vehicles drive on the right in this country, but I didn't know people ride a motorcycle without a helmet. I was surprised at it. In Japan, it is a violation of traffic regulations. And I found that people can turn right when the light turned red. It was interesting for me. Second, I was surprised that the American flag is raised every where. I think it is interesting for Japanese people. Because in Japan, it is not a common scene. Lastly, I was very surprised at food. American food is very big, and the grocery store's shelves are very high. And in the supermarket, I found that people put the goods on the belt conveyor when they pay at the checkout counter. I think it is very useful.

What classes I will take

I'll take the American history class in fall semester. Because I want to learn American history and I took world history in my high school days. I'm interested in world histories, especially American and European. So I took English history in spring semester. If I get the chance to go to some foreign countries, I want to visit a lot of world heritages. By the way, I'll take the outline of English linguistics. Because it was easy to take from a schedule. But I attended this class yesterday, I'm interested in it. Because the professor's talk was very interesting. I'm looking forward to attending his class.

Vacation plans

My vacation plan was to participate in kaigai kensyu. I was looking forward to go to Minnesota, but I was worried about my life in Minnesota. Because I'm not good at speaking English and I'm not a friendly person. However, I had a good time with my host family and I learned about a lot of things. For example, I could hear some modern English. I didn't know such as English expressions. My host mother uses "Holy cow!" instead of "Unbelievable". Her son asked "Do you have a sibling?". I have heard "sibling" from the English teacher in my high school, but I didn't think people use the word in real life. I'm interested in modern English. I'll study a lot of English expressions.
